     Entrez identifiers for genes related with Prostate Cancer selected
     from two datasets analyzed by Welsh et al. (2001) and Singh et al.
     (2002) respectively. The genes have been selected from freely
     available datasets in the internet using a standard workflow for
     selecting differentially expressed genes. The dataset contains 4
     character vectors, each corresponding to the entrez identifiers of
     the genes selected at a 5% and 1% significance level  from the
     Welsh and Singh dataset respectively.
