Comprehensive Characterization of Common and Cancer-Specific Differently Expressed lncRNAs in Urologic Cancers.

Urologic cancers, comprising prostate carcinoma (PCa), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and bladder carcinoma (BCa), were the commonly occurred carcinoma amid males. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) with the length of more than 200 nt functioned importantly in physiological and pathological advancement. Nevertheless, further investigation regarding lncRNA expression feature and function in urologic cancers should be essential.

Comparison of tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy and standard percutaneous nephrolithotomy for kidney stones: A meta-analysis of randomized trials.

This systematic review was designed to evaluate the efficacy of tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) versus standard percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for kidney stones. Computerized search was performed for randomized clinical trials (RCTs) from PubMed, EMBASE, CENTRAL and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews databases. The included studies were randomized trials investigating tubeless PCNL versus standard PCNL in patients with kidney stones.

miR-192 Is Overexpressed and Promotes Cell Proliferation in Prostate Cancer.

Objective: Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most prevalent types of cancer among men worldwide. The incidence of PCa is increasing in China. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify novel diagnostic and prognostic markers for PCa to improve the treatment of the disease.
