Despite techniques to preserve the cavernous nerves during radical prostatectomy erectile dysfunction remains a complication. We determined whether bilateral nerve resection induces apoptosis in penis. also treatment with phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor tadalafil prevents as well specific mechanisms involved.Mice were subjected or sham surgery. Penises processed for identification of apoptotic cells, changes phosphorylation several protein kinases and immunolocalization kinases. Mice placed on...

Premature ejaculation (PE) is suspected to be the most prevalent male sexual complaint, and prevalence of PE considerably high also in younger generation. We investigated based on Diagnostic Statistical Manual Mental Disorders (4th ed text revision; DSM-IV-TR) definition risk factors Korean young men via Internet survey. Subjects (n = 3980) aged from 20 59, who performed intercourse more than once a month during past 6 months were asked participate this study. Participants complete...
To investigate the relationship between low testosterone levels and prostate cancer detection risk in a biopsy population.In all, 681 men who underwent initial 12-core transrectal at our institution were included this retrospective study. Patients divided into groups with (<300 ng/dL) normal (≥300 ng/dL). Clinical pathological data analysed.Among men, 86 (12.6%) had levels, 143 (32.7%) positive biopsy, 99 (14.5%) high-grade cancer. The mean age, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, PSA...
Purpose:To investigate the incidence of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in Korea and treatment patterns for 3 years after diagnosis a nationwide database.Materials Methods: We created cohort patients diagnosed BPH between 2007 2011 from Health Insurance Review & Assessment database, database reimbursement.The was defined as having (N40.0 International Classification Diseases, 10th revision) primary or secondary ≥2 times 2008.The 2008 calculated.Treatment were determined months interval...
Objectives To develop and validate a risk calculator for prostate cancer (PCa) clinically significant PCa (csPCa) using explainable artificial intelligence (XAI). Patients Methods We used data of 3791 patients to the calculator. initially divided into development validation sets. An extreme gradient‐boosting algorithm was applied five‐fold cross‐validation with hyperparameter tuning following feature selection in set. The model importance determined based on Shapley value. area under curve...
This study investigated the learning curve of a single-session retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) in patients with mid-sized stones. Competence and trainee proficiency for RIRS was assessed using cumulative sum analysis (CUSUM).The design use patients' information stored hospital database were approved by Institutional Review Board our institution. A retrospective review performed 100 who underwent RIRS. Patients included if main stone had maximal diameter between 10 30 mm. The presence...

The Seoul National University Renal Stone Complexity (S-ReSC) scoring system was developed to predict the stone-free rate (SFR) after single-tract percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). This study is an external validation of this system.A retrospective review included 327 patients who underwent PCNL at 2 tertiary referral centers. S-ReSC score assigned from 1 9 based on number sites involved. stone free status defined as either complete clearance or clinically insignificant residual fragments...
To evaluate the impact of obesity on prostate cancer detection, as measured by body mass index (BMI) in a Korean biopsy population.We retrospectively reviewed records 1213 men who underwent transrectal ultrasonography-guided at our institution. Biopsy outcomes were analysed with respect to various variables, including patient age, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), volume, digital rectal examination (DRE) findings and obesity, defined BMI ≥25 kg/m(2) , an Asian category.Among men, 408 (33.6%)...

Thanks to advancements in surgical techniques and instruments, many modalities have been developed replace transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). However, TURP remains gold standard for treatment benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We conducted a meta-analysis on efficacy safety minimally invasive therapies BPH compared with TURP.This used Medline search assessing period from 1997 2011. A total 784 randomized controlled trials were identified an electronic search. Among articles, 36...
