- Intradiverticular transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder is difficult to diagnose and treat due to its unique location in bladder diverticula, necessitating early detection for better patient outcomes.
- Tailored treatment plans, including radical surgeries and adjuvant chemotherapy, are crucial because of the aggressive nature of this cancer, along with strict monitoring after treatment to manage high recurrence rates.
- Future research goals include identifying biomarkers, comparing treatment effectiveness, and exploring innovative therapies like immunotherapy, with the aim of improving patient survival rates and quality of life.

Given the yearly death rate of 10-30% and the unavailability of medications targeting HFpEF, the need arises for a better understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of this syndrome. This comprehensive review explores sex-specific differences in traditional risk factors; female-specific factors that may impact HFpEF development and response to therapy, including variations in hormone levels that may occur pre- and post-menopausal or during pregnancy; and disparities in comorbidities, clinical presentation, and diagnostic challenges.
