Prostate cancer Prostate cancerThe prostate is a gland in the male reproductive system with the main function to produce the seminal fluid that nourishes and transports sperm. Prostate cancer is the most common non-skin cancer for men. Most prostate cancers are slow-growing and are confined to the prostate gland, where they may not cause serious harm. However, while some types of prostate cancer grow slowly and may need minimal or even no treatment, other types are aggressive and can spread quickly to other areas of the body, particularly the bones and lymph nodes. If prostate cancer is detected early, when it is still confined to the prostate gland, the chance for successful treatment is high. Prostate cancer is the fourth most common type of cancer and the second most common in men. The incidence and mortality rates are strongly related to age with the highest incidence being seen in elderly men above 65 years of age (ACS - Prostate Cancer). Differential abundance and machine learning analysisThis section presents the disease-specific results of the differential abundance and machine learning analyses. The analyses are reported for three comparisons: 1) disease vs. all other diseases, 2) disease vs. diseases from the same class, and 3) disease vs. healthy samples. Disease vs All other

Figure 1: In the volcano plot, proteins are plotted based on their fold change (logFC) on the x-axis and the statistical significance of the change (-log10 adjusted p-value) on the y-axis. Proteins considered differentially abundant are highlighted, defined by an adjusted p-value < 0.05 and an absolute logFC > 0.5.
Figure 2: Summary of machine learning selected proteins. Reported is the average importance across all bootstraps and the standard deviation for the 10 most important proteins. Feature importance is the model estimates for each protein, normalized to a scale of 1-100. Table 1: The summary table lists the results for all comparisons, sorted by p-value by default. It includes key metrics such as fold change and adjusted p-value, to allow exploration of the most significant proteins for each comparison.
The table also shows the average protein importance across all bootstraps.
