We sought to evaluate whether bilateral prostate cancer detected at active surveillance (AS) enrollment is associated with progression Grade Group (GG) ≥2 and compare the efficacy of combined targeted biopsy plus systematic (Cbx) vs (Sbx) or alone detect disease.A prospectively maintained database patients referred our institution from 2007-2020 was queried. The study cohort included all AS GG1 on confirmatory Cbx followup least 1 year. Cox proportional hazard analysis identified baseline...
Active surveillance for patients with low and intermediate risk prostate cancers is becoming a more utilized option in recent years. However, the use of magnetic resonance imaging imaging-targeted biopsy monitoring grade progression has been poorly studied this population. We aim to define utility systematic an active population.Between July 2007 January 2020, diagnosed cancer who elected were monitored imaging, standard biopsy. Patients eligible if any volume Gleason 1 disease select 2...
We sought to determine if participating in a surgical training session using perfused fresh human cadavers (PFHC) had positive effect on urology residents' confidence performing open and endoscopic procedures.Urology residents at our institution participated the West Virginia University Fresh Tissue Training Program, which utilized with vascular perfusion. The consisted of different urologic procedures (open endoscopic) (PFHC). Residents were given survey rate their before, after, 6 months...
Abstract Introduction Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is one of the most common methods reproductive assistance in modern era. As female mammals have an estrous cycle, IUI as a procedure can be broadly applied to wide array species. Objective We sought explore history from its origins application assisted human reproduction. Methods reviewed articles Google Scholar, PubMed, and MedLine. Results Unverified accounts artificial Arabian Mare traced back French translation 14th century equine...

Eunuchs, or men who have castrated, served as royal guards, government officials and choir singers among other professions. Objective We sought to review the early surgical techniques of historical Eurasia. Methods Literature for male was performed using Pubmed Google Scholar.

The underlying premise of prostate cancer active surveillance (AS) is that cancers likely to metastasize will be recognized and eliminated before cancer-related disease can ensue. Our study was designed determine the upgrading rate when biopsy guided by magnetic resonance imaging (MRGBx) used entry during AS.
Wild greater one-horned rhinos (Rhinoceros unicornis), orphaned juveniles in human care, and calves from Kaziranga National Park, Assam, India were surveyed coprologically for gastrointestinal parasites. Parasite infections present 100% of wild rhino samples, 96% juvenile 27% calf samples. In rhino, observed parasite ova primarily trematodes Paramphistomumsp. (100%), followed by those strongyle nematodes (94%) the cestode Anoplocephala sp. (56%). Orphaned samples positive only strongyles....
The blue-crowned laughingthrush (BCLT) (Pterorhinus courtoisi) is a species of critically endangered passerine that part Global Species Management Plan and experiences high mortality rates in some collections. Complete necropsy medical records from 15 European institutions housed BCLT between 1998 2018 were assessed to evaluate morbidity the captive population.
