Abstract: In particular, disclosed is a method for treating a patient with prostate cancer that involves genotyping a nucleic acid sample from the subject for one or more single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) alleles in one or more genes angiogenesis, comparing the one or more SNP alleles to control allele frequencies to produce a SNP signature, and analyzing the SNP signature to generate a risk score. The risk score can represent the likelihood that the patient's prostate cancer will recur following radical prostatectomy. In particular embodiments, a high risk score in a patient with positive margins is an indication of a high risk of prostate cancer recurrence.

Abstract: A temperature sensing device includes a bandgap voltage generator, N mirror current sources, a temperature voltage generator, and a temperature calculating unit. The mirror current sources mirror N mirror currents according to a positive temperature coefficient current. The temperature voltage generator sets the conducting number M of the mirror current sources based on a control signal, so as to generate a temperature voltage. The temperature calculating unit gradually counts the control signal and compares a potential of the temperature voltage with a potential of a reference voltage generated by the bandgap voltage generator after counting the control signal, so as to calculate and obtain temperature information. Thus, the temperature sensing device controls the conducting number M of the mirror current sources to generate the temperature voltage instead of applying serially-connected resistors, so as to reduce a circuit area of the temperature sensing device and reduce noise.
