Emergence of Neuroendocrine Tumors in Patients Treated with Androgen Receptor Pathway Inhibitors for Metastatic Prostate Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Background And Objective: It has been shown that androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPIs) treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) improves overall survival rates, but ARPIs appear to be associated with a higher frequency of treatment-related neuroendocrine prostate cancer (t-NEPC). Our aim was to quantify the proportion of prostate adenocarcinoma cases that transition to t-NEPC following ARPI therapy.

Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search of the literature on t-NEPC using databases including MEDLINE and Scopus.

Long-term oncological outcomes of active surveillance for low-risk prostate cancer diagnosed during the MRI era.

Background: Active surveillance (AS) is the recommended approach for managing Grade-Group1 (GG1) prostate cancer (PCa). Incorporating MRI at entry improve patient selection and outcomes.

Objective: To evaluate long-term oncological outcomes of patients receiving AS selected with MRI at entry.

Thirty-five years of the French Association of Urologists in Training (AFUF) a scoping review and bibliometric analysis of scientific literature conducted by urologists in training.

Purpose: The objective of this scoping review was to identify the topics of research and the types of studies published by the French Association of Urologists in Training (AFUF) since it was created, 35 years ago and to perform a bibliometric analysis.

Methods: A scoping review on PubMed, Google scholar, Excerpta Medica database (EMBASE) was conducted from 1989 until the 31st of December 2023. The PRISMA extended guidelines for scoping reviews were followed.

Does the cobbler always wear the worst shoes? Sexuality of urologists in training.

Introduction: Sexuality is an integral part of well-being. Urologists are a population faced with a significant workload and stress that can affect their sexuality. The purpose of this study was to investigate sexuality in this population and assess factors that may impact it.

MRI accuracy for recurrence after partial gland ablation with HIFU for localized prostate cancer. A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Prostate cancer remains the most frequently diagnosed cancer among men. High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) has emerged as a thermal ablative technique for partial-gland-ablation (PGA), aiming to minimize collateral damage while maximizing tumor control. Monitoring after HIFU PGA relies on serial PSA testing, multiparametric-MRI, and biopsies.
