Background: During the last few years, significant pathophysiological differences between heart failure (HF) patients with "normal" ejection fraction (EF) (50% to 64%) and those supra-normal EF (≥65%) have been highlighted. However, these distinct phenotypes poorly investigated in elderly aged ≥70 y. Accordingly, present study aimed at assessing clinical echocardiographic characteristics of a retrospective cohort HFpEF (aged ≥ 70 y), categorized on basis (50 or "supra-normal" (≥65%)....
Objective: The objective was to evaluate the impact of perioperative immunonutrition (IN) on postoperative complications in patients undergoing radical cystectomy (RC) for bladder cancer (BC). Methods: A prospective case series 19 treated with IN between October 2022 and July 2023 conducted. Patients received preoperative based nutritional risk gradual recovery normal feeding. inclusion criteria encompassed clinically node-negative without metastatic disease. outcomes were assessed using...
To evaluate the impact of discordant histological diagnoses between transurethral resection bladder tumour (TURBT) and radical cystectomy (RC) on cancer-specific mortality (CSM) in patients with cancer (BCa). We relied a multi-institutional database collecting data BCa who underwent TURBT subsequent RC from nine centres 2000 2023. tested concordance rates detecting urothelial carcinoma urinary (UCUB) as well non-UCUB hystological subtypes, using reference standard. Concordance was defined...
The plasma aldosterone-to-renin ratio (ARR) for the diagnosis of primary aldosteronism is normally calculated with renin activity (PRA) as denominator. However, new direct assays that measure concentration (PRC) are progressively replacing PRA because these faster, simpler, and more reproducible.To assess whether calculation ARR a assay (ARRD, ng/dl/mU/l) instead (ARRP, ng/dl/ng/ml/h) affects rate positive tests in patients on liberal antihypertensive treatment.PRA, PRC, aldosterone (PAC)...
Objective To determine the oncological impact of extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) vs standard PLND (sPLND) during radical cystectomy (RC) in clinically node‐positive (cN+) bladder cancer (BCa). Patients and Methods In this retrospective, multicentre study we included 969 patients who underwent RC with sPLND (internal/external iliac obturator nodes) or ePLND (sPLND plus common presacral without platin‐based peri‐operative chemotherapy for cTany N1‐3 M0 BCa between 1991 2022. We...

Radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) with the concomitant excision of distal ureter and bladder cuff is current standard care for treatment muscle invasive and/or high-risk upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). In small uncontrolled studies, laparoscopic RNU has been suggested to be associated better perioperative outcomes compared open RNU. The aim our study was compare oncological functional versus after adjusting preoperative baseline patient-related characteristics.We evaluated a...
Age might influence the choice of surgical approach, type urinary diversion (UD) and lymph node dissection (LND) in patients candidate to radical cystectomy (RC) for urothelial bladder cancer (UBC). Similarly, age may enhance morbidity worsen perioperative outcomes. We tested impact (octogenarian vs. younger patients) on decision making peri- postoperative outcomes RC.Non-metastatic muscle-invasive UBC treated with RC at 18 high-volume European institutions between 2006 2021 were identified...
Background and purpose Hypertension is known to be highly prevalent among patients with diabetes associated an increased risk of cardiovascular damage. In contrast, relatively few investigations have addressed the prevalence hypertension.
