Body mass index and penile cancer incidence: results from a Norwegian cohort study of 829,081 men

BMC Urology
Background A few previous studies have suggested a possible association between adiposity and increased risk of penile cancer, however, the evidence is to date limited for this rare cancer.

A Simple Cell Culture Assay for Human Prostatic Branching Morphogenesis Spotlights Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling as a Therapeutic Target in Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

The Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) leads to prostate enlargement and lower urinary tract symptoms that can resist treatment. A histologic hallmark of BPH is glandular epithelial hyperplasia with new ductal branching morphogenesis. The stromal inductive factors driving tissue morphogenesis may provide new therapeutic targets, but are

Evaluation of C-reactive protein levels in patients with penile cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis

World Journal of Surgical Oncology
Background C-reactive protein (CRP) is an essential biomarker for evaluating penile cancer prognosis. Previous studies have reported conflicting outcomes concerning the correlation between CRP levels and penile cancer prognosis.

A Platform for the Actuation of Magnetically Labeled Skeletal Muscle Cells Using Dynamic Magnetic Stimulation

Small, EarlyView.
A magnetic stimulation platform for the remote stimulation of cells is presented, consisting of a magnetic stimulator and magnetic microspheres. Skeletal muscle cells are labeled with magnetic microspheres, which act as local magnetic actuators on the cells upon application of the magnetic field.

Long-term recurrence-free survival following total penectomy and additional chemotherapy for solitary penile metastasis from muscle invasive bladder cancer

Urology Case Reports
Penile metastasis from bladder cancer is extremely rare and often presents as part of multiple distant metastases. However, no established standard treatment exists for a solitary penile metastasis. We report an 83-year-old male diagnosed with a solitary

Variation on Toxic and Inflammatory Potential of Coal Smoke of Different Sources From a Region With High Lung Cancer Risk

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess lung cancer risk in Xuanwei and Fuyuan, China, has been attributed to household air pollution from use of a locally sourced smoky (bituminous) coal. However, the carcinogenic mechanisms remain unclear. Given the important role of inflammation in lung cancer development, this study compared the proinflammatory potentials of the ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Strategies for enhancing sensitivity in lateral flow assays

VIEW, EarlyView.
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are essential for cost‐effective, rapid point‐of‐care diagnostics. However, conventional colourimetric LFAs often lack the sensitivity required for low‐abundance biomarkers. This review evaluates six enhancement strategies: flow modulation, sample preconcentration, advanced reporters, chemical signal amplification, structural
