Abstract ChatGPT is an advanced natural language processing technology that closely resembles human language. We evaluated whether could help patients understand kidney cancer and replace consultations with urologists. Two urologists developed ten questions commonly asked by cancer. The answers to these were produced using ChatGPT. five-dimension SERVQUAL model was used assess the service quality of survey distributed 103 via email, twenty-four urological oncologists specializing in included...

To evaluate the clinical factors that impact ureteral stent-related lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) after ureteroscopic ureterolithotomy, including stent position and medication.Fifty-three patients who underwent ureterolithotomy with indwelling a were distributed into three groups. On demand analgesics given to group 1 (n=18). Daily tamsulosin 0.2 mg was added for 2 (n=15) daily tolterodine 4 3 (n=20). The also subclassified appropriate or inappropriate according position. All completed...
Purpose: Volumetry is used in polycystic kidney and liver diseases (PKLDs), including autosomal dominant disease (ADPKD), to assess progression drug efficiency.However, since no rapid accurate method for volumetry has been developed, not yet established clinical practice, hindering the development of therapies PKLD.This study presents an artificial intelligence (AI)-based PKLD.Materials Methods: The performance AI was first evaluated comparison with ground-truth (GT).We trained a V-netbased...
To investigate the oncological significance of a robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC)-related pentafecta in patients with bladder cancer.Using KORARC database, which includes data from 12 centres, 730 who underwent RARC between April 2007 and May 2019 were prospectively collected retrospectively analysed. Pentafecta was achieved if met all following criteria: (i) negative soft tissue surgical margin; (ii) ≥16 lymph nodes removed; (iii) no major complications (Clavien-Dindo grade 3-5)...
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the effect of intraoperative fluid volume on postoperative ileus (POI) recovery period. A retrospective review Korean robot-assisted radical cystectomy database identified 718 patients who underwent (RARC). Regression analyses were performed identify associations between amount administration (crystalloid/colloid/total), POI period (time flatus/bowel movements), and length hospital stay (LOS) after adjusting for covariates. In addition, we analyzed...
It is well known that fungi become predominant microorganisms in the urine of patients with long-term Foley catheters. This study was conducted to evaluate lengths time for cause urinary tract infection (UTI) and identify predictors fungal UTI burn catheters.A total 93 who did not have at admission but later had fugal were evaluated. Urinalysis, culture, catheter indwelling done admission. All administered prophylactic antibiotics from Urine cultures run every week, catheters changed 2 weeks...
Total kidney volume (TKV) measurement is crucial for selecting treatment candidates in autosomal dominant polycystic disease (ADPKD). We developed and investigated the performance of fully-automated 3D-volumetry model applied it to software as a service (SaaS) clinical support on tolvaptan prescription ADPKD patients.Computed tomography scans patients taken between January 2000 June 2022 were acquired from seven institutions. The quality images was manually reviewed advance. dataset split...
Abstract CD200 is a ligand that interacts with the receptor 1, an anti‐inflammatory effect. inhibits nuclear factor kappa‐light‐chain‐enhancer of activated B cells (NF‐κB) pathway, attenuating inflammatory response and maintaining barrier function. In this study, human was fused fragment crystallizable (Fc) region immunoglobulin G (IgG) to generate recombinant CD200‐Fc protein, produced in insect using baculovirus expression vector system. The gene cloned under control polyhedrin promoter...
This study investigated the efficacy of intravesical gemcitabine as an alternative to bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy.
We report here on a rare case of primary malignant melanoma the female urethra. A 69-year-old presented at our hospital with several month history dysuria, poor stream, gross hematuria, intermittent blood spots, and painful mass external urethral meatus. The physical examination revealed soft, small, chestnut-sized lesion through orifice. was tan colored, ulcerated, covered necrotic tissue, protruded from removed by wide local excision under spinal anesthesia. pathological diagnosis Computed...
Laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) is currently accepted as the gold standard procedure for living nephrectomy. Robot-assisted LDN (RALDN), an evolving procedure, has recently shown potential to ultimately emerge preferred procedure. Here, we report our experience and surgical technique followed employing RALDN donation.This retrospective study involved 56 consecutive patients who underwent between January 2015 August 2018. Intraoperative postoperative functional outcomes were analyzed...
Optimal treatment approaches for high-risk localized and locally advanced prostate cancer remain controversial there are currently no standard treatments. These patients with usually offered radiotherapy in combination hormonal therapy. We report functional oncologic outcomes of who underwent primary robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) assess the role RARP cancer.This study included 188 (clinical stage T2c or a pretreatment prostate-specific antigen level > 20 ng/mL biopsy Gleason...
Urinary diversion reconstruction is essential after radical cystectomy and neobladder accepted as a fine option. This study included 51 patients, who underwent with orthotopic by Hautmann ileal chimney modification from 2006 to 2014. Functional outcomes were evaluated using questionnaire uroflowmetry. Perioperative complications analyzed retrospectively. The mean follow-up period was 36.1 months. Eighty-six percent of patients voided without clean intermittent catheterization (CIC)...
Background: We aimed to compare the oncologic outcomes of intracorporeal urinary diversion (ICUD) and extracorporeal (ECUD) following robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) in patients diagnosed with bladder cancer. Materials Methods: Medical records 730 who underwent RARC between April 2007 May 2019 11 tertiary referral centers were retrospectively reviewed. assessed recurrence-free survival (RFS), cancer-specific (CSS), overall (OS) two groups using Kaplan–Meier method. Cox regression...
Background and Objectives: Multiple factors are associated with postoperative functional outcomes, such as acute kidney injury (AKI), following partial nephrectomy (PN). The pre-, peri-, heavily intertwined change dynamically, making it difficult to predict renal function. Therefore, we aimed build an artificial intelligence (AI) model that utilizes perioperative residual function incidence of AKI PN. Methods Materials: This retrospective study included 785 patients (training set 706, test...
Recent studies reported conflicting results on the association of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with dementia and Parkinson’s disease in patients prostate cancer (Pca). Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether use gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) increases risk both diseases. A nationwide population cohort was conducted involving newly diagnosed Pca %who started ADT GnRHa (GnRHa users, n = 3,201) control (nonusers, 4,123) between January 1, 2012, December 31,...
Abstract Various neurovascular bundle-sparing techniques have been introduced to maximize recovery of erectile function after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). The clipless intrafascial technique aims preserve periprostatic structures and bundles as much possible by avoiding clipping the vascular pedicles. This study reports 1-year functional oncologic outcomes postoperative complications in 105 patients with intact preoperative who underwent a modified RARP. Intact was defined...
Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) has largely replaced open as the standard surgical treatment for prostate cancer. However, postoperative urinary incontinence still persists and a significant impact on quality of life. We report superior results detrusorrhaphy technique during RARP that helps achieve early continence. Our prospective study involved 95 consecutive patients who underwent between March 2015 May 2017; fifty using new (group 1) 45 2). The oncological functional...
