Recent studies have confirmed the efficacy of sorafenib for patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma; however, its efficacy and safety as an adjuvant therapy in patients with non-metastatic and loco-regional renal cell carcinoma after surgery remains controversial. Thus, the aim of the present retrospective study was to evaluate the efficacy of adjuvant sorafenib therapy in such patients from 8 centers in northwestern China that were treated from August 2009 to December 2016.After surgery, the patients (n = 48) received oral sorafenib for 3 months.

Purpose: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has played an important role in recovery management for radical cystectomy with ileal urinary diversion (RC-IUD). This study is to evaluate ERAS compared with the conventional recovery after surgery (CRAS) for RC-IUD.
Methods: From October 2014 and July 2016, bladder cancer patients scheduled for curative treatment from 25 centers of Chinese Bladder Cancer Consortium were randomly assigned to either ERAS or CRAS group.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the use of three-dimensional cultures of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in a rat model mimicking menopause and childbirth injury.
- The researchers created microtissues (MTs) from ADSCs and injected them into SUI-induced rats to assess recovery in voiding function and changes in histology at various time points.
- Results showed that MTs significantly improved voiding function and histological recovery compared to ADSCs, suggesting that MTs are more effective in treating SUI.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the diagnosis and treatment of bladder cancer across various centers in China between 2007 and 2012, analyzing a total of 14,260 cases.
- Results showed that the majority of patients were older males, with urothelial carcinoma being the most prevalent histological type, and non-muscle invasive bladder cancer representing only a small fraction.
- Treatment approaches varied, with transurethral resection being common for non-muscle invasive cases, while radical cystectomy was primarily used for muscle invasive bladder cancer, highlighting some similarities and differences compared to international practices.
