Purpose: Information retrieval (IR) and risk assessment (RA) from multi-modality imaging and pathology reports are critical to prostate cancer (PC) treatment. This study aims to evaluate the performance of four general-purpose large language model (LLMs) in IR and RA tasks.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a study using simulated text reports from computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, bone scans, and biopsy pathology on stage IV PC patients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compares the Senhance® Robotic System (SRP) to the da Vinci robotic system (DRP) in radical prostatectomy procedures, focusing on various surgical outcomes and costs.
  • Results show no significant differences in surgical complications, oncologic outcomes, or incontinence rates between SRP and DRP cases at three months post-surgery.
  • The Senhance system offers a safer and more cost-effective option for experienced surgeons, with a median procedure cost of $4170 compared to $7675 for the da Vinci system.

Novel hormonal agents (NHAs) have significantly improved outcomes in men with advanced prostate cancer. However, it remains unclear whether NHAs are associated with subsequent cognitive impairment. Thus, we sought to perform a network meta-analysis to compare the risk of cognitive impairment across NHA types.

Purpose: We investigated the value of measuring the vibratory perception threshold with a biothesiometer to clinically evaluate women with stress urinary incontinence.

Materials And Methods: The study consisted of 3 groups, including group 1--66 women with stress urinary incontinence, group 2--44 age matched women without stress urinary incontinence and group 3--60 younger women without stress urinary incontinence. A total of 50 patients with stress urinary incontinence underwent videourodynamics.

Radical cystectomy is the gold standard for muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma of the bladder because this operation provides excellent local cancer control. Laparoscopic radical cystectomy with different urinary diversions has been reported since 1992 and proposed as an alternative to open radical cystectomy. However, the reconstruction part of the operation is time-consuming and challenging.
