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
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
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
Primary pure angiosarcoma of the testis: a vanishingly rare malignancy. Case report and literature reviewSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 20 - Trang 1-8 - 2020
J. Walravens-Evans, M. Yao, S. Grannò, D. Arul, S. Chitale
Primary pure angiosarcoma of the testis is an exceptionally rare testicular malignancy, which is poorly understood. We present the fifth and youngest case in the current medical literature. Additionally, all cases of angiosarcoma of the testicle, both occurring with associated germ cell tumour and without, were compared in an extended tabular format. A 56-year old man presented with unilateral scr...... hiện toàn bộ
Biofilm reduction potential of 0.02% polyhexanide irrigation solution in several types of urethral cathetersSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 21 - Trang 1-6 - 2021

Long-term use of urethral catheters is associated with high risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) and blockage. Microbial biofilms are a common cause of catheter blockage, reducing their lifetime and significantly increasing morbidity of UTIs. A 0.02% polyhexanide irrigation solution developed for routine mechanical rinsing shows potential for bacterial decolonization of urethral catheters and has...... hiện toàn bộ
Is it safe to use a ureteral access sheath in an unstented ureter?Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 19 - Trang 1-6 - 2019
Asaf Shvero, Haim Herzberg, Dorit Zilberman, Yoram Mor, Harry Winkler, Nir Kleinmann
The aim of this study was to examine ureteral stricture rate after the use of UAS in an unstented ureter and compare complications of smaller vs. larger-caliber UAS. We conducted a retrospective analysis of consecutive RIRS for renal stones, with the use of UAS in unstented ureters. We excluded cases with previous ureteroscopies, who carried ureteral stent or nephrostomy, had impacted stones, unde...... hiện toàn bộ
A comparative study of transperineal software-assisted magnetic resonance/ultrasound fusion biopsy and transrectal cognitive fusion biopsy of the prostateSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - - 2022
Po-Fan Hsieh, Tian-You Chang, Wei-Ching Lin, Han Chang, Chao-Hsiang Chang, Chi-Ping Huang, Chi-Rei Yang, Wen-Chi Chen, Yi-Huei Chang, Yu-De Wang, Wen-Chin Huang, Hsi-Chin Wu
The advantages and disadvantages of transperineal and transrectal biopsies remain controversial in the era of prostate targeted biopsy. In this study, we compared the cancer detection and complication rates of transperineal magnetic resonance/ultrasound (MR/US) fusion biopsy and transrectal cognitive fusion biopsy of the prostate. This was a comparative study of two prospectively collected cohorts...... hiện toàn bộ
Impact of hormonal therapy on the detection of promoter hypermethylation of the detoxifying glutathione-S-transferase P1 gene (GSTP1) in prostate cancerSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 1-6 - 2006

In spite of excellent cure rates for prostate cancer patients with favorable tumor characteristics, patients with unfavorable characteristics after radical prostatectomy are still at a significantly increased risk of tumor progression. Early adjuvant hormonal therapy (AHT) has been shown to be of prognostic benefit in these patients. Unfortunately initiation and duration of early AHT in the indivi...... hiện toàn bộ
