Background: Repeat transurethral resection of bladder tumour (reTURB) is a conventional treatment for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) to enhance prognosis. However, the necessity of reTURB in NMIBC remains controversial owing to upstaging of treatments and new evidence.
Objectives: We performed an umbrella review to determine the need for reTURB in patients with NMIBC.
Background: En-Bloc transurethral resection of bladder tumor (ERBT) was clinically used to resect non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). However, discrepancies persist regarding the comparisons between ERBT and conventional transurethral resection of bladder tumor (cTURBT).
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and performed manual searches of reference lists to collect and extract data.
Bladder preservation (BP) has emerged as a clinical alternative to radical cystectomy (RC) for alleviating the substantial physical and psychological burden imposed on localized bladder cancer patients. Nevertheless, disparities persist in the comparative evaluations of BP and RC. We aimed to address the disparities between BP and RC.

Herein, we aim to elucidate the impact of endothelial cells on BC patient outcomes by employing an integration of single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing data.
Methods: All data utilized in this study were procured from online databases.
Adhesion-regulating molecule 1 (ADRM1) has been implicated in tumor development, yet its specific role in bladder cancer (BC) remains undefined. This study aimed to elucidate the function of ADRM1 in BC through a combination of bioinformatics analysis and immunohistochemical analysis (IHC). Utilizing R version 3.

We wanted to further identify the function of endothelial cells in KIRC patients by integrating single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing data. Online databases provide the original data of this study.

We aimed to determine and compare the prognostic value of the ISII, preoperative systemic immune-inflammation index (PSII) and their dynamic changes (PISII).
Methods: This study respectively collected data from 362 NMIBC patients receiving BCG treatment in our institution.
Background: Contradictive results about the direct role of C5a/C5aR1 axis in different cancer cells have been reported. The direct effect of C5a on human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells and the underlying mechanism are not clear. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of C5a/C5aR1 axis in RCC cells and its working mechanism.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFKDF1 has been identified as a key regulator of epidermal proliferation and differentiation, but it is unknown whether KDF1 is involved in the pathogenesis of malignancy. No study has reported the expression and function of KDF1 in renal cancer. To explore the pathologic significance of KDF1 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the expression level of KDF1 protein in the tumor tissue of ccRCC patients was examined by immunohistochemistry and Western blot while the expression level of KDF1 mRNA was analyzed by using the data from TCGA database.
