The association between folic acid (FA) and erectile dysfunction (ED) was contradictory in the published original articles, and no meta-analysis was conducted to pool these data. To verify the role of FA in the pathology of ED and explore the treatment efficacy of FA for ED patients.
The aim of this article is to assess the outcomes of a low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy (LiESWT) protocol for the treatment of Peyronie’s disease (PD). Patients treated for PD were prospectively recorded, and data were retrospectively reviewed.
To investigate the rate of erectile dysfunction (ED) after pelvic ring fracture (PRF). Systematic review and meta-analysis. A systematic literature search of the Cochrane, EMBASE, MEDLINE, Scopus and Web of Science Library databases was conducted in January 2020.
Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in aging men are commonly attributed to bladder outlet obstruction from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) but BPH/LUTS often reflects a confluence of many factors.
Background CD-30 is highly expressed in some patients with non-seminomatous germ-cell tumors. Brentuximab vedotin is an antibody-drug conjugate directed to CD-30. We report a phase 2 trial of brentuximab vedotin in patients with chemo-refractory GCT.
Neoadjuvant immune checkpoint blockade represents a novel approach for potentially decreasing the risk of recurrence in patients with nonmetastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). In this early phase clincal tiral, we evaluated the safety and tolerability of neoadjuvant treatment with the programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitor nivolumab in patients with nonmetastatic high-risk RCC.
To assess the outcomes of retroperitoneal robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (r-RAPN) in a large cohort of patients with postero-lateral renal masses comparing to those of transperitoneal RAPN (t-RAPN).
Abiraterone acetate plus prednisolone is approved to treat patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of abiraterone acetate plus prednisolone in castration-resistant prostate cancer patients with or without previous chemotherapy in a real-world setting in Japan.
In case of oligo-recurrent prostate cancer (PC) following prostatectomy, 68Ga-PSMA-PET/CT can be used to detect a specific site of recurrence and to initiate metastasis-directed radiation therapy (MDT).
Aggressive tumors of epithelial origin shed cells that intravasate and become circulating tumor cells (CTC). The CTCs that are able to survive the stresses encountered in the bloodstream can then seed metastases.
