To evaluate the extent to which erectile dysfunction (ED) is managed by urologists versus non-urologists. We sought to characterize the epidemiology, diagnosis, and outpatient treatment of ED using a nationally representative cohort.
Sublingual apomorphine could be an option in patients with erectile dysfunction who cannot take phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (e.g., using nitrates). We have completed a systematic review to evaluate the effects of sublingual apomorphine comparing with placebo for treating erectile dysfunction.
We aimed to investigate the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) administered for the treatment of obstructive upper airway on lower urinary tract symptoms and erectile dysfunction in male patients.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a relatively common issue for men. A number of clinical studies have demonstrated that continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy may effectively alleviate ED symptom from patients with OSA.
Prostatic artery embolization (PAE) is a minimally invasive technique for the management of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) relieving the lower urinary tract symptoms in patients. Various embolic agents have been tested in animal models and subsequently used in human patients.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is a common urological disorder as men get older. BPH can cause uncomfortable urinary tract symptoms. Given the high incidence of the disease, further research is an undeniable necessity for its better management.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a progressive condition and common cause of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), is underdiagnosed in primary care, impacting patient outcomes. Here, we evaluate the utility of a BPH screening tool in general practice, to identify men confirmed to have BPH after urologist assessment of diagnostic test results.
To compare tissue trauma between Retropubic Radical Prostatectomy and Robotically Assisted Laparoscopic Radical Prostatectomy by inflammatory mediators. Serum samples from 40 patients submitted to RALP and 20 patients submitted to RRP were withdrawn at four different time points.
To compare the erectile function and urinary continence of patients after single-port transvesical laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (STLRP) with intrafascial endoscopic extraperitoneal radical prostatectomy (IEERP).
Our study aimed at identifying prognostically relevant genes as plausible targets for further research by using the comprehensive The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets.2 By performing systematic survival analyses across 30 different tumor entities, we discovered the so far widely unknown gene Downstream neighbor of SON (DONSON) gene to be a particularly strong predictor of […]
