Check if id exists using node-postgres

WIth MongoDB & Mongoose, I could check if an id exists like so:

if (!mongoose.Types.ObjectId.isValid(id))
    return res.status(404).send(`No post with id: ${id}`);

if (!mongoose.Types.ObjectId.isValid(id))
    return res.status(404).send(`No post with id: ${id}`);

How can I do that using Postgres & Expressjs? I'm using node-postgres for the queries.

I think that only checks if the id passed is valid not if it exists
