Socioeconomic status is an independent predictor of biochemical recurrence among patients with prostate cancer who undergo radical prostatectomy

International Brazilian Journal of Urology, 2011
PURPOSE: Socioeconomic status (SES) may influence cancer characteristics and behavior in several aspects. We analyzed PCa characteristics and behavior among low income uninsured men, and compare them to high income patients with health insurance in a ...

Lessons learned from 12,000 robotic radical prostatectomies: Is the journey as important as the outcome? [PDF]

Investigative and Clinical Urology, 2020
Robotic radical prostatectomy (RARP) is a standardized treatment for localized prostate cancer, which provides better functional outcomes and similar oncological outcomes compared to open approaches.

Immunomodulation of the Prostate Tumor Microenvironment Following Inorganic Arsenic Exposure

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The tumor microenvironment (TME) influences prostate cancer (PCa) progression through stromal and immune interactions. Adipose‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) modulate immune tone, while inorganic arsenic (iAs), a widespread toxicant, is linked to immune suppression and carcinogenesis.

Optimal Selection of the Effective Echo Time (TEeff) for T2‐Weighted Fast‐Spin‐Echo MRI of the Prostate at 3.0 T: Effect on Lesion Conspicuity

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Clinical T2‐weighted (T2W) MRI of prostate cancer (PCa) usually implements a 2D fast‐spin‐echo (FSE) sequence, but understanding the echo‐time‐dependent contrast behavior is not straightforward due to the complicated FSE signal evolution.

Multi-institution analysis of racial disparity among African- American men eligible for prostate cancer active surveillance [PDF]

, 2018
There is a significant controversy on whether race should be a factor in considering active surveillance for low-risk prostate cancer. To address this question, we analyzed a multi-institution database to assess racial disparity between African-American ...

A two‐stage model for precise identification and Gleason grading of clinically significant prostate cancer: a hybrid approach

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 93-105, March 2025.
This study developed a two‐stage model using radiomics‐based multiparametric MRI and clinical indicators to help identify and grade clinically significant prostate cancer. The model showed promising levels of diagnostic accuracy and predictive performance.

Diagnosis and Treatment of Post-Prostatectomy Lymphedema: What’s New?

Current Oncology, 2023
Lymphedema is a chronic progressive disorder that significantly compromises patients’ quality of life. In Western countries, it often results from cancer treatment, as in the case of post-radical prostatectomy lymphedema, where it can affect up to 20% of
