Lifestyle behaviors and mental health outcomes in sexual and gender minority graduate students.

Objective: There are well-documented health disparities among sexual and/or gender minority (LGBTQ+) individuals generally, but there is limited research investigating the disparities in health-related lifestyle factors and mental health among LGBTQ+ graduate students, which is a group that may be especially vulnerable.

Participants: This project was a secondary analysis of data from the American College Health Association's National College Health Assessment's (NCHA) Fall 2019 wave, which included 7,766 graduate students.

Methods: Students self-reported engagement in health-related lifestyle factors and psychological distress.

Defining the association between the prolonged operative time and 90-day complications in patients undergoing radical cystectomy.

Objective: Radical cystectomy is a complex lengthy procedure associated with postoperative morbidity. We aimed to assess the operative time (OT) in patients undergoing radical cystectomy and its impact on 90-day postoperative complications and readmission rates.

Methods: The retrospective cohort study included 296 patients undergoing radical cystectomy and urinary diversion from May 2010 to December 2018 in our institution.

Under-representation of Diversity on American Urological Association and European Association of Urology Guideline Panels.

Objective: To assess the panel composition of the 2 most important guideline developers in urology as equity and acceptability, important domains in clinical guideline development, require broad stakeholder representation.

Methods: Following a predefined protocol, we identified all current AUA and EAU guideline documents. Two authors independently abstracted data including guideline topic, number and roles of panel members, voting status, and academic rank.

Prostate Tissue Microbiome in Patients with Prostate Cancer: A Systematic Review.

Some researchers have speculated that the prostatic microbiome is involved in the development of prostate cancer (PCa) but there is no consensus on certain microbiota in the prostatic tissue of PCa vs. healthy controls. This systematic review aims to investigate and compare the microbiome of PCa and healthy tissue to determine the microbial association with the pathogenesis of PCa.

Perioperative complications and oncological outcomes of open versus robotic-assisted radical cystectomy: a propensity score-matched study.

Purpose: To conduct a comparative effectiveness analysis between robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) and open approach (ORC).

Materials And Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving all patients undergoing radical cystectomy and urinary diversion for invasive bladder cancer at our institution from 2010 to 2018. Of a total 296 patients, we matched ORC and RARC cases based on age, BMI, Charlson comorbidity index, pathological TN staging of the tumor, prior radiotherapy, and type of diversion.
