Bladder cancer is a common cancer that may present as superficial, invasive, or metastatic disease. Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) represents the majority of bladder cancer diagnoses, but represents a spectrum of disease with a variable clinical course, notably for significant risk of recurrence and potential for progression. NMIBC metastasis to distant organs without local invasion or regional metastasis is a very rare occurrence, so there are limi-ted case reports about early metastasis in the literature.

Background: The incidence of gall bladder cancer (GBC), one of the most prevalent bile duct malignancies, differs with ethnicity and geographic location. To treat unresected GBC in the Chinese setting, this study aimed to assess the financial effectiveness of a combination of modified gemcitabine and oxaliplatin.
Methods: Data from a randomized controlled study in which individuals with metastatic GBC were treated with oxaliplatin and gemcitabine demonstrated improved survival.

Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) ranks as the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality among men. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are known to play a regulatory role in the development of various human cancers. LncRNA MAFG-divergent transcript (MAFG-DT) was reported to play a crucial role in tumor progression of multiple human cancers, such as pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, bladder cancer, and gastric cancer.

Background And Purpose: Distant metastasis in bladder cancer is linked to poor prognosis and significant mortality. Machine learning (ML), a key area of artificial intelligence, has shown promise in the diagnosis, staging, and treatment of bladder cancer. This study aimed to employ various ML techniques to predict distant metastasis in patients with bladder cancer.

Restoration of postoperative urinary continence after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is affected by diverse factors. We compared the pad-free and positive margin rates of patients who underwent RARP with or without bladder neck sparing (BNS) for prostate cancer. During this systematic review and metaanalysis, we performed an electronic search of the Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and PubMed to find original articles comparing RARP with and without BNS for prostate cancer.

Bladder instillation of chemo-therapeutic agents is common for bladder cancer (BC) treatment, however, due to the poor tissue selectivity of chemotherapeutic agents, this method suffers from bladder irritation or even chemical cystitis. Here, we designed a hydroxyethyl starch-based prodrug for epirubicin (EPI) using a pH-sensitive hydrazone linker and folate as the active targeting moiety (FA-HES-hyd-EPI) to achieve delivery selectivity. Prodrug micelles decorated with FA (FA-m), with diameter of 203.
