Although the second-generation androgen receptor inhibitors and taxanes have recently been recommended for the initial treatment of metastatic prostate cancer, bicalutamide and flutamide are still used in a large number of cases. Therefore, it is important to elucidate the clinical characteristics of these treated CRPC cases and their sensitivity to the currently used therapeutic agents. We aimed ...... hiện toàn bộ
Initial experience with prostatic urethral lift versus enucleation of the prostate: a retrospective comparative studySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 23 - Trang 1-11 - 2023
Daisuke Obinata, Rio Uehara, Sho Hashimoto, Ken Nakahara, Tsuyoshi Yoshizawa, Junichi Mochida, Kenya Yamaguchi, Satoru Takahashi
This study aimed to assess initial results and patient characteristics of prostatic urethral lift (PUL) compared with those of bipolar transurethral enucleation of the prostate (TUEB) in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in older patients. This retrospective study was conducted at a single institution and involved 25 consecutive patients with BPH who underwent PUL between April 2...... hiện toàn bộ
Risk factors and predictive model for acute kidney Injury Transition to acute kidney disease in patients following partial nephrectomySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 23 - Trang 1-10 - 2023
Sizhou Zhang, Dachun Jin, Yuanfeng Zhang, Tianhui Wang
Acute kidney disease (AKD) is believed to be involved in the transition from acute kidney injury (AKI) to chronic kidney disease in general populations, but little is understood about this possibility among kidney surgical populations. This study aimed to elucidate the incidence of AKD after partial nephrectomy and risk factors that promote the AKI to AKD transition. From January 2010 to January 2...... hiện toàn bộ

Radical cystectomy for bladder cancer represents a high demolitive surgical procedure with a significative impact on quality of life. Sexuality preserving techniques have been proposed in order to improve functional outcomes. Although sex-sparing techniques would provide women with the chance of having pregnancy, experience is still limited when malignant conditions are considered. We report the o...... hiện toàn bộ
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and distress: - a cross-sectional nationwide survey in men with prostate cancer in SwedenSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 19 - Trang 1-8 - 2019
Ulrika Rönningås, Per Fransson, Maja Holm, Agneta Wennman-Larsen
The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) -value is often used during the prostate cancer trajectory as a marker of progression or response to treatment. Concerns about PSA-values are often expressed by patients in clinical situations. Today there is a lack of larger studies that have investigated the association between PSA-value and distress. The aim was to investigate the association between PSA-valu...... hiện toàn bộ
Preclinical assessment of potential interactions between botulinum toxin and neuromodulation for bladder micturition reflexSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 15 - Trang 1-7 - 2015
Xin Su, Angela Nickles, Dwight E. Nelson
While botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) has become a more commonly used second-line treatment for patients with detrusor overactivity, it remains unknown whether the impacts of this therapy may persist to influence other therapies such as sacral neuromodulation. In this preclinical study we have evaluated urodynamic functions to intradetrusor injection of BoNT-A and the bladder inhibitory effects of spin...... hiện toàn bộ
Targeting HOX transcription factors in prostate cancerSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 14 - Trang 1-9 - 2014
Richard Morgan, Angie Boxall, Kevin J Harrington, Guy R Simpson, Agnieszka Michael, Hardev S Pandha
The HOX genes are a family of transcription factors that help to determine cell and tissue identity during early development, and which are also over-expressed in a number of malignancies where they have been shown to promote cell proliferation and survival. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the expression of HOX genes in prostate cancer and to establish whether prostate cancer cells are s...... hiện toàn bộ
