After 50 yr in which nasoenteric feeding was considered contraindicated acute pancreatitis (AP), several clinical studies have shown that early nasojejunal (NJ) can be achieved most patients. A pilot study of nasogastric (NG) patients with objectively graded severe AP proved this approach also feasible. randomized comparing NG versus NJ has been performed.A total consecutive were to receive either or via a fine bore tube. The end points markers the phase response APACHE II scores and...
Despite being a critical survivorship care issue, there is clear gap in current knowledge of the optimal treatment sexual dysfunction men with prostate cancer. There sound theoretical rationale and emerging evidence that exercise may be an innovative therapy to counteract Furthermore, despite multidimensional aetiology dysfunction, paucity research investigating efficacy integrated models. Therefore, purpose this study to: 1) examine as aid management cancer; 2) determine if combining brief...
Introduction Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a non-invasive alternative to surgery for the treatment of non-metastatic prostate cancer (PC). The objectives Novel Integration N ew radiation schedules with adJuvant Androgen deprivation (NINJA) clinical trial are compare two emerging SBRT regimens efficacy technical substudies focussing on MRI only planning and use knowledge-based (KBP) assess plan quality. Methods analysis Eligible patients must have biopsy-proven unfavourable...
A resection with clear margins (R0 resection) is the most important prognostic factor in patients locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC). However, this achieved only 60 per cent of patients. The aim study to investigate whether addition induction chemotherapy neoadjuvant chemo(re)irradiation improves R0 rate LRRC.This multicentre, international, open-label, phase III, parallel-arms will enrol 364 resectable LRRC after previous partial or total mesorectal without synchronous distant...
Objectives To improve imaging utilisation and reduce the widespread overuse of staging investigations, in form computed tomography ( CT ) whole‐body bone scans for men with newly diagnosed prostate cancer Hunter region NSW , Australia, by implementation a multifaceted clinician‐centred behaviour change programme. Patients Methods Records all patients new diagnosis were reviewed prior to intervention (July 2014 July 2015), results this audit presented participating urologists clinical...
Empty pelvis syndrome is a complex challenge resulting from the dead space generated by exenteration.A systematic review of reconstructive techniques to prevent empty cited inconsistent definitions and heterogeneous outcome reporting, was therefore unable make strong conclusions in favour particular strategy 1 .The severity complications escalates with more radical surgery as boundaries are pushed 2,3 guidelines proposed here will establish standardized definitions, outcomes, descriptors,...
Tumors of the urethra, whether primary or metastatic, are very rare. The true nature urethral neoplasm is not always obvious clinically nor in routine histological sections. Immunostains should be performed on such lesions because management implications. We present a case multiple metastases to urethra from prostatic carcinoma, masquerading as urothelial carcinomas. Pathologists and urologists aware possibility metastasis prostate.
A prospective clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of a novel approach treatment patients with high risk prostate cancer (HRPC) through use nomogram tailor radiotherapy target volumes. Twenty seven subjects HRPC were treated mildly hypofractionated regimen using image-guided IMRT technique between Jun/2013-Jan/2015. set validated prognostic factors inputted into Memorial-Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) estimate loco-regional spread (LRS). The estimates for...
A man in his 30s reported severe penile pain after vigorous sexual activity, described as a 'popping' sound followed by partial loss of erection and pain. Initial examination revealed significant scrotal swelling bruising without evidence typical eggplant deformity.1 However, the treating practitioner did not recognize potential fracture. An ultrasound was performed week later due to ongoing symptoms suggested possible fracture or hematoma (Fig. 1). Given delayed presentation unclear history...
Advanced care planning (ACP) is a series of ongoing voluntary discussions between patients, families and healthcare professionals to plan for their future needs. Despite patients with rheumatic diseases having high symptom burden disease complications, the ACP completion rates in remain low. In this quality improvement project, we aimed increase number completed tertiary referral rheumatology centre Singapore from 0 1 per month. We showed statistically significant across year two...
Objective: This study assesses whether fusion or cognitive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided prostate targeted and systematic transperineal biopsies (TPB) increase detection of clinically significant cancer (csPCa). Materials Methods: A retrospective analysis was completed patients (2018–2020) undergoing 3-Tesla multiparametric MRI informing (either MIM software approach) TPB. ISUP (International Society Urological Pathology) grade group ⩾ 2 considered csPCa. Results: total 355 cases...
This study assessed the acceptability and feasibility of a question prompt list (QPL) to facilitate informed treatment decision-making in men with suspected localised prostate cancer, which involves values-based choices between options similar efficacy but different side effects. The QPL was developed through iterative consultation consumers, clinicians researchers. Acceptability using study-specific questions regarding satisfaction usefulness qualitative interviews. Feasibility determined...
