The Impact of Common Medications on Male Fertility: An Updated Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Background Compared with those of cytotoxic treatments, the potential effects of common medications on the fertility of men trying to conceive currently or planning to conceive in the future are less well described. The use of common medications may modify the gonadotropic axis, spermatogenesis, and epididymal maturation or alter male ...

Association of bi‐parametric MRI measures with continence after robot‐assisted radical prostatectomy
Objective To investigate the association between pre‐ and postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements of the membranous urethra and the prostate volume and continence following robot‐assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Patients and Methods From December 2018 to June 2022, 100 continent patients undergoing unilateral nerve‐sparing or ...

3D‐printed model for resection of positive surgical margins in robot‐assisted prostatectomy
Objectives To improve precision of secondary resection (SR) after positive surgical margin (PSM) detection by frozen section (FS) during nerve‐sparing (NS) robot‐assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) by employing a personalised three‐dimensional (3D)‐printed prostate model derived from pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Real‐time by‐example texture synthesis and filtering using local statistics exchange
Abstract Real‐time by‐example texture synthesis is used in interactive virtual worlds to generate the appearance of an unbounded surface from an exemplar texture with as few repetitions as possible. Currently, leading real‐time methods rely on a tiling and blending scheme which is known to synthesize well texture patterns with little spatial ...

One‐more‐vertex Next‐Event Estimation with Hierarchical Geometry Sampling
Abstract Robust next‐event estimation (NEE) remains a challenge in scenes characterized by sparse or small‐scale geometry where indirect illumination is the primary transport mechanism. In these scenes, traditional path construction, which relies on local directional sampling, often fails to find intersections with the sparse geometry, and standard NEE

DNA damage in the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris elicits distinct cellular outcomes depending on replication status. While non‐replicating cells tolerate genotoxic stress, constitutively replicating cells undergo irreversible replication failure upon DNA damage, leading to loss of tissue homeostasis, fat depletion, sterility, and organismal death ...
