Epidemiology of prostate cancer in Asian countries
Tập 25 Số 6 - Trang 524-531 - 2018
AbstractThe incidence of prostate cancer has been increasing worldwide in recent
years. The GLOBOCAN project showed that prostate cancer was the second most
frequently diagnosed cancer and the fifth leading cause of cancer mortality
among men worldwide in 2012. This trend has been growing even in Asian
countries, where the incidence had previously been low. However, the accuracy of
data about inci...
Male infertility in cancer patients: Review of the literature
Tập 17 Số 4 - Trang 327-331 - 2010
AbstractThe number of men surviving cancer at a young age has increased
dramatically in the past 20 years as a result of early detection and improved
cancer treatment protocols; more than 75% of young cancer patients nowadays are
long‐term survivors. Quality of life has become an important issue in childhood
and adult cancer patients. The commonest cancers in patients of reproductive age
are leuka...
Role of Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway in epithelial‐mesenchymal transition of human prostate cancer induced by hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α
Tập 14 Số 11 - Trang 1034-1039 - 2007
Objectives: Epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important process in
tumor development, and several studies suggest that the Wnt/β‐catenin signal
pathway may play an important role in EMT. However, there is no direct evidence
showing that the Wnt/β‐catenin pathway actually determines the EMT induced by an
exogenous signal. Our previous research has successfully proved that
overexpressio...
Effects of bladder volume on transabdominal ultrasound measurements of intravesical prostatic protrusion and volume
Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 225-229 - 2002
Abstract Background: A filled bladder acts as an acoustic window for
transabdominal ultrasound measurements of intravesical prostatic protrusion and
volume. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of bladder volume on
transabdominal ultrasound measurements of these parameters. Methods: Twenty‐two
patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) were studied.
Under genera...
Skeletal complications in cancer patients with bone metastases
Tập 23 Số 10 - Trang 825-832 - 2016
AbstractAs a result of significant improvements in current therapies, the life
expectancy of cancer patients with bone metastases has dramatically improved.
Unfortunately, these patients often experience skeletal complications that
significantly impair their quality of life. The major skeletal complications
associated with bone metastases include: cancer‐induced bone pain,
hypercalcemia, pathologi...
Tissue elasticity imaging for diagnosis of prostate cancer: A preliminary report
Tập 13 Số 12 - Trang 1514-1518 - 2006
Background: Elastography is a diagnostic imaging technique that evaluates the
hardness of a lesion. It is expected to become a new diagnostic modality for
prostate cancer. The aim of this study was to examine the usefulness of
elastography in the diagnosis of prostate cancer.Methods: A total of 29 patients
with untreated, histologically proven prostate cancer were examined using an
elastographic i...
Comparison of intravesical prostatic protrusion, prostate volume and serum prostatic‐specific antigen in the evaluation of bladder outlet obstruction
Tập 13 Số 12 - Trang 1509-1513 - 2006
Aim: The aims of this study were to define the relationship between intravesical
prostatic protrusion (IPP), prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) and prostate volume
(PV) and to determine which one of them is the best predictor of bladder outlet
obstruction (BOO) due to benign prostatic enlargement.Methods: A prospective
study of 114 male patients older than 50 years examined between November 2001
and ...
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy in the treatment of erectile dysfunction: A prospective, randomized, double‐blinded, placebo controlled study
Tập 21 Số 10 - Trang 1041-1045 - 2014
ObjectivesTo investigate the role of low‐intensity extracorporeal shockwave
therapy in the treatment of erectile dysfunction.MethodsThis was a
double‐blinded, single‐center, prospective, randomized, placebo‐controlled
trial. After a 2‐week phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor washout period,
patients were assessed with Sexual Health Inventory for Men, International Index
of Erectile Function‐ED doma...
Gonadotropin‐releasing hormone: An update review of the antagonists versus agonists
Tập 19 Số 7 - Trang 594-601 - 2012
AbstractGonadotropin‐releasing hormone agonists and antagonists provide
androgen‐deprivation therapy for prostate cancer. Unlike agonists,
gonadotropin‐releasing hormone antagonists have a direct mode of action to block
pituitary gonadotropin‐releasing hormone receptors. There are two licensed
gonadotropin‐releasing hormone antagonists, degarelix and abarelix. Of these,
degarelix is the more exten...
Intravesical prostatic protrusion predicts clinical progression of benign prostatic enlargement in patients receiving medical treatment
Tập 17 Số 1 - Trang 69-74 - 2010
Objectives: To assess intravesical prostatic protrusion (IPP) as a novel
predictor of clinical progression in patients with benign prostatic enlargement
(BPE).Methods: All patients attending the outpatient clinic at our institution
who were being treated for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to BPE
between January 1997 and December 2003 were recruited into the study.
International Pr...
