Objective: Evaluate the results of Nesbit's technique in patients with Peyronie's disease.

Methods And Materials: Between 1990 and 2002, 45 patients were treated using the Nesbit's procedure to correct Peyronie's disease curvature. Mean age was 57.6 (range 41-73). Dorso lateral incurvation was the most common.

Results: Total correction of the curvature in 40 patients (88%). High grade of satisfaction in 39 patients (86.66%).

Conclusion: Nesbit's operation is an easy and effective surgical technique in the peyronie's disease for curvature correction.

Objective: This study investigates the relationship between the albumin-to-creatinine ratio and diabetic retinopathy (DR) in US adults using NHANES data from 2009 to 2016. This study assesses the predictive efficacy of the urinary serum albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR/SACR Ratio) against traditional biomarkers such as the serum albumin-to-creatinine ratio (SACR) and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) for evaluating DR risk. Additionally, the study explores the potential of these biomarkers, both individually and in combination with HbA1c, for early detection and risk stratification of DR.
