Erectile dysfunction (ED) refers to the persistent inability to achieve and/or maintain a sufficient erection of the penis to obtain a satisfactory sexual life,which affects the quality of life of the patients and their sexual partners.To decipher the pathophysiological mechanism of ED,researchers have established a variety of animal models and achieved a series of progress.The cavernous nerve (CN) of rodents,anatomically similar to that of humans,is cost-effective,thick,and easy to be identified,which has gradually become the mainstream of animal models.

Data on patients with UTUC from 2010 to 2017 were retrieved from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER) database. Kaplan-Meier analysis was applied to compare the patients' survival distributions.

- The study compares transurethral laser surgery and open prostatectomy for treating large-sized benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and aims to evaluate their efficacy and safety based on existing literature from 2000 to 2020.
- The meta-analysis included 12 studies with a total of 1,514 patients, revealing that the transurethral laser group had shorter hospital stays, less catheterization time, and a significantly lower incidence of blood transfusions compared to the open prostatectomy group.
- Both techniques are effective and safe, but transurethral laser surgery may be preferable due to reduced blood loss and shorter recovery times.
