Isolated Rare Urethral Metastasis From Primary Lung Adenocarcinoma: Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Background: Lung adenocarcinoma is a common respiratory malignancy, however urethral metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma has not yet been reported. This study aims to present a rare case of isolated urethral metastasis in a male patient with a history of ...

The neuropathic urethra [PDF]

open access: yesSpinal Cord, 1980
The hypothesis is advanced that the functional urethral obstruction found in neuropathic states is due, in part at least, to urethral supersensitivity following sympathetic decentralisation. A simple postural test for this condition is described. By its use it has been shown that urethral denervation occurs not only in disorders of the central nervous ...

Nanogel Integrated Zwitterionic Injectable Hydrogel with Sequential Drug‐Releasing Capability for the Programmable Repair of Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel drug‐loaded D/P‐g‐PSB nanogel‐incorporated hydrogel by the electrostatic attraction‐driven self‐assembling process. Sequential drug releasing property (melatonin is released first by physical diffusion, and then ibuprofen is released as the charge shielding effect and hydrogel degradation). This ion‐sensitive hydrogel platform with sequentially

Rapid Decentralized Prostate Cancer Risk Stratification by Portable Liquid Biopsy Analysis within a Clinical Biosensor Validation Framework

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this work, we showcased two significant scientific advances in (i) developing a portable biosensor technology for rapid decentralized prostate cancer urinary biomarker testing and reporting, with superior performance to current clinical testing practice; and (ii) proposing a clinical validation framework (for our biosensor development) which can be ...

Magnesium Structure‐Function Integration Platform for Spatiotemporal Multi‐Modality Therapy: Combining Hormonotherapy and Immunotherapy in Prostate Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The schematic illustration of the MHSCG platform for spatiotemporal responsive GRb1 release to induce androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and immunogenic cell death (ICD) multimodal therapy in prostate cancer. Abstract Metal‐based immunotherapy represents a promising strategy for enhancing antitumor efficacy; however, its clinical application is limited

A Sirtuin‐1‐Targeted Gene‐Activating Tetrahedral DNA Attenuates Bladder Fibrosis by Restoring Mitophagy in Fibroblasts via the SIRT1‐FOXO3‐BNIP3 Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The SIRT1‐targeted saRNA‐delivering tetrahedral DNA (TSA) treatment effectively upregulates SIRT1 expression, which subsequently promotes FOXO3A deacetylation. This deacetylation event relieves FOXO3A's transcriptional repression on the BNIP3 gene, thereby initiating PINK1‐PARKIN‐dependent mitophagy.

Risk Factors for Anastomotic Stricture and Obstructive Symptoms Following Double‐Flap Technique Reconstruction After Proximal Gastrectomy

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study investigated risk factors for anastomotic stricture and obstructive symptoms following double‐flap technique (DFT) reconstruction after proximal gastrectomy. Mucosal detachment, potentially caused by thermal damage, was identified as a significant risk factor for anastomotic stricture, while continuous suturing at the esophago ...

Urethral reconstruction in severe hypospadias using buccal mucosa graft and penile skin flap [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2011
Introduction. Hypospadias represents the most frequent penile anomaly. The most challenging part of hypospadias surgery is urethral reconstruction. Many various tissues are used (local skin flaps, bladder mucosa grafts, buccal mucosa grafts etc.) for ...

Impact of Abdominoperineal Resection on Postoperative Male Sexual Function After Minimally Invasive Rectal Cancer Surgery: A Subgroup Analysis From the LANDMARC Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Abdominoperineal resection (APR) after minimally invasive rectal cancer surgery was associated with significantly higher rates of erectile and early ejaculatory dysfunction compared with anal‐sparing surgery. Although ejaculatory function showed partial recovery over time, erectile dysfunction persisted up to 12 months postoperatively.
