Artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots, such as ChatGPT, have made significant progress. These particularly popular among health care professionals and patients, are transforming patient education disease experience with personalized information. Accurate, timely is crucial for informed decision-making, especially regarding prostate-specific antigen screening treatment options. However, the accuracy reliability of AI chatbots' medical information must be rigorously evaluated. Studies testing...
Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) is a potentially life-threatening infection of the renal parenchyma and perinephric tissues by gas-forming organisms. Historically, open surgical drainage or nephrectomy was standard care, however, in recent years percutaneous as minimally invasive approach has become popular. However, whether can be successful more severe cases EPN less clear. We report case Class IIIb managed successfully with multiple staged procedures guided interval re-assessment...
Respiratory viral infections are the most common trigger of acute exacerbations in patients with allergic asthma. The anti-viral response airway epithelial cells (AEC) may be impaired asthmatics, while cytokines produced by AEC drive inflammatory response. We investigated whether cultured presence Th2 associated an environment exhibited altered responses to double-stranded RNA, a virus-like stimulus.We undertook preliminary studies using MLE-12 cell line derived from mouse distal respiratory...
This case series describes the experiences and outcomes of multiple Australian surgeons performing robotic-assisted bladder diverticulectomy (RABD), highlighting procedural effectiveness safety, for both benign malignant indications diverticulectomy.
Objectives To compare the diagnostic performance and radiological staging impact of 68 Ga‐prostate‐specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PSMA PET/CT) compared to 99 Tc whole‐body bone scan (WBBS) for detection skeletal metastasis in primary prostate cancer (PCa). Patients Methods A prospective institutional database was retrospectively examined patients who underwent both PSMA PET WBBS within a 1 week interval PCa staging. Lesions were categorised as...
Objectives Many people are turning to alternatives the conventional doctor-patient relationship, such as webbased search engines and video forums for their health care information. We undertook this study investigate quality of videos information on renal cancer available streaming platform YouTube. Methods completed a YouTube (www.YouTube.com) in September 2021 with term “kidney cancer.” The first 120 found which met inclusion criteria (English speaking, duration greater than one minute,...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is experiencing a period of rapid growth in capabilities and interest. The ability AI to change the current landscape health care particularly relevant for urology – field historically receptive embracing innovative technologies. authors consider its potential improvements clinical practice, as well ethical considerations.
Objectives: There is currently limited local and international literature on the characteristics of uro-oncology multi-disciplinary team meetings (MDTMs) their impact clinical decision making. The aims this study were to provide a comprehensive descriptive analysis MDTMs at an Australian tertiary hospital over 12-month period impacts patient management, evaluate adherence MDTM plans. Methods: We conducted review prospectively maintained database all held within Northern Adelaide Local Health...
ObjectivesTo determine the impact of a criteria-led discharge initiative (CLD) on hospital length stay patients undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP).MethodsThis is cohort study prospectively collected data completed at major tertiary from December 2017 to August 2020. The CLD consists 4 criteria: clinical haemodynamic stability (heart rate < 100 beats/minute, systolic blood pressure > 100mmHg), drain output less than 50 mL, flatulence or bowel movement, and...
Objective: The aim of this study was to report the outcomes from robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) at an Australian public teaching hospital since introduction technique in 2012. Methods: A retrospective analysis conducted on perioperative and pathological a consecutive series 43 patients who underwent RARC for bladder cancer between 2012 2020 Nepean Public Hospital. Results: Median operative time 352 minutes 32 (74.4%) undergoing construction ileal conduit, 499 nine (20.9%)...
