Andolfi et al. report on the largest single-institution case series of robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RAL-P) in infants. Transitioning from RAL-P in older children to infants seems to have more to do with patient and port positioning, instrument size and intra-abdominal space than robotic surgical technique.

Mashup Score: 3
Trials evaluating novel therapies in the neoadjuvant setting must have clearly defined study elements and appropriately selected end points to ensure the applicability of the trial and enable interpretation of the study results. In this Perspectives, the authors describe the findings of a public workshop jointly sponsored by the US Food and Drug Administration and the Bladder Cancer Advocacy…

Mashup Score: 1The cognitive effect of anticholinergics for patients with overactive bladder - Nature Reviews Urology - 3 year(s) ago
Anticholinergics are a common class of medication used in the treatment of overactive bladder. However, concerns have been raised over the potential association of anticholinergics and cognitive impairment or dementia. This Review discusses the clinical evidence and provides guidance for prescribing anticholinergics in at-risk populations.

Mashup Score: 0Prostate cancer screening: a new way forward or another false start? - Nature Reviews Urology - 3 year(s) ago
Serum PSA testing can identify men with clinically significant prostate cancer but exposes many more men to the diagnosis of indolent tumours. Benafif and colleagues have published the results of the BARCODE1 pilot study, in which they propose using germline single-nucleotide polymorphisms to identify men with a genetic risk of developing prostate cancer. Based on their preliminary findings,…

Mashup Score: 13Practical considerations for prostate hypofractionation in the developing world - Nature Reviews Urology - 3 year(s) ago
Conventionally fractionated external beam radiotherapy is an effective treatment for localized prostate cancer, but long treatment programmes result in a substantial burden to patients and the health-care system, which is particularly problematic in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) where health-care resources might be scarce and patient funds limited. Here, the authors discuss the…

Mashup Score: 3Salvage therapy for prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy - Nature Reviews Urology - 3 year(s) ago
Biochemical recurrence following radical prostatectomy for intermediate-risk and high-risk prostate cancer is common. However, not all patients with recurrence will die from their disease. This comprehensive Review from a multidisciplinary group discusses the optimal evaluation and management of these patients to ensure balance between treatment-related morbidity and cancer control.
