The MyProstateScore test was validated for improved detection of clinically significant (grade group ≥2) prostate cancer relative to specific antigen based risk calculators. We sought validate an optimal threshold clinical use in ruling out grade ≥2 men referred biopsy.Biopsy naïve provided post-digital rectal examination urine prior biopsy. calculated using the validated, locked multivariable model including only serum antigen, urinary 3 and TMPRSS2:ERG. approximating 95% sensitivity...
Cerebellar development is a highly regulated process involving numerous factors acting with high specificity, both temporally and by location. Part of this involves extensive proliferation cerebellar granule neuron precursors (CGNPs) induced Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling, but downstream effectors mitogenic signaling are still being elucidated. Using primary CGNP cultures, well-established model for SHH-driven proliferation, we show that SHH-treated CGNPs feature levels hypoxia-inducible...
The role of mentors in the Match process is invaluable across specialties. It not uncommon for to contact program directors (PD's) on behalf their mentees encourage further consideration or provide endorsement. This year mentoring may be more important than ever. Although some institutions continue delay visiting student rotations setting COVID-19, others are canceling them altogether. In certain fields like Orthopaedic Surgery, Plastic Urology, and Neurosurgery among others, such away...
Abstract Background and Objectives Surgical oncology patients are vulnerable to persistent opioid use. As such, we aim compare prescribing consumption for common surgical procedures. Methods We prospectively identified undergoing procedures at a single academic institution (August 2017–March 2018). Patients were contacted by telephone within 6 months of surgery asked report their describe discharge instructions handling practices. Results Of the 439 who approached via telephone, 270...

Abstract Objective To evaluate the association of MyProstateScore (MPS) urine test on decision to undergo biopsy in men referred for prostate at a contemporary academic urology practice. Methods MPS testing was offered as an alternative immediate University Michigan from October 2013 through 2016. The primary endpoint perform biopsy. proportion patients who underwent calculated across quintiles and compared predicted risk scores Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial calculator (PCPTrc). Analyses...
Pediatric brain tumors, such as medulloblastomas, glioma, and ependymoma, are among the most common causes of cancer death in children, patients that survive current treatment paradigm (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation) face lifelong side effects. Increased understanding biological underpinnings these which often occur a result aberrant regulation developmental signaling pathways, is urgently needed order to develop treatments will improve survival quality life. Approximately 30%...
