In order to supply a scientific basis for uniting the normal reference value standard of hemoglobin of Chinese older boys. Methods: A research is made about the relationship between the normal reference value of 14751 examples of hemoglobin of older boys and five geographical factors in 92 areas in China, which are determined by the hemoglobincyanide method. Results: It is found that the correlation of geographical factors and the normal reference value of hemoglobin of older boys are quite significant (F = 9.68). By using the method of multiple linear regression analysis, one regression equation is inferred: Ŷ = 108.0 + 0.003633X1 + 0.003945X2 + 0.1680X3 − 0.6310X4 + 0.005518X5 ± 8.3 Conclusion: If geographical values are obtained in some areas, the normal reference value of hemoglobin of older boys of this area can be reckoned by using the regression equation. Furthermore, the depending on the geographical factors, China can be divided into six districts: Qingzang, Southwest, Northwest, Southeast, North and Northeast district.

Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is an important tool for the diagnosis, prognosis and follow up of prostatic cancer, the most common malignancy of the male throughout the world. It is safe, reliable, specific, noninvasive test if done properly. However there are many benign, inflammatory and other prostatic conditions which can also give rise to elevated PSA value and thus limits its use. Different methods of estimation may also give rise to variable PSA level. More over the normal reference range may be variable depending on the age, geographic situation, environmental conditions and other factors. The normal reference range mentioned in the texts is based on findings in the developed countries. No effort was made before to see the normal reference PSA value among Bangladeshi male population. With this background the present study was undertaken to determine the normal reference value of PSA in Bangladeshi population. It is evident form the present study that the normal reference PSA value for Bangladeshi male in different age groups are lower in comparison to that of upper limit of normal reference value mentioned in the text.
