Background And Aims: Active Surveillance (AS) is a favored strategy for the management of indolent prostate cancers (PCs). Overweight and obese men harbor an increased risk of cancer progression during AS. We aim to prospectively evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of a ketogenic diet (KD) weight-loss intervention in overweight men with PC.

- Early discharge (ED) after colectomy is increasingly being prioritized, but the factors influencing it are not fully understood.
- This study analyzed data from over 282,000 patients who underwent non-emergent colectomy between 2012 and 2021 to identify these factors, finding that robotic surgery was significantly associated with ED outcomes.
- Patients who experienced ED—defined as a hospital stay of 2 days or less—demonstrated lower rates of complications and readmissions compared to those with longer stays, indicating that quicker discharges might lead to better overall health outcomes.
Background: The dramatic increase in exposure to non-native sources of electromagnetic fields (EMF) in recent years has given rise to numerous human health concerns. The near pervasive exposure to radiofrequency (RF) emanating from wireless technologies inside the home (e.g.
