MicroRNA‐130a‐3p Targets the Androgen‐Related Transcription Factor MAFB: Effects on Proliferation, Migration, Apoptosis, and Cell Cycle in Hypospadias

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
MicroRNA‐130a‐3p targets and inhibits MAFB expression, leading to the development of hypospadimas. MicroRNA‐130a‐3p inhibits the expression of MAFB, disrupts the normal processes of cell proliferation, migration, cell apoptosis, and cycle progression, and ultimately leads to the development of hypospadias.

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

Short‐Term Surgical Outcomes: Modified Dorsal Inlay Graft Versus Tubularized Incised Plate Urethroplasty in Pediatric Hypospadias With Narrow Urethral Plates

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Reconstructing the urethra presents in hypospadias surgery is difficult. Occasionally, the urethral plate (UP) may be quite narrow, necessitating augmentation or replacement to achieve additional tubularization. Objective The objective of this research was to assess the application of modified dorsal inlay graft (mDIG) and ...

Slit2/Robo Signaling Restores Diabetic Erectile Function via Neurovascular Remodeling

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Diabetes mellitus‐induced erectile dysfunction (DMED) is a common and debilitating vascular‐neurogenic complication of diabetes. The poor responsiveness of DMED patients to phosphodiesterase type‐5 inhibitors underscores the need for therapies capable of restoring both endothelial integrity and cavernous nerve function.

Social reintegration of women after obstetric fistula surgery: Evidence from a longitudinal multilevel mixed‐effects study in Zambia

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Achieving continence remains central to obstetric fistula recovery because of its strong association with improved social reintegration. However, the marked gains observed during the first 3 months after surgery suggest that early postoperative follow‐up and reintegration support may be important even for women with persistent symptoms.
