Introduction: Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancer among men in the world. Radical prostatectomy is the gold standard treatment for localized prostate cancer but advanced diseases are treated with hormonal therapy. Unfortunately, this treatment is not curative and approximately after 2 years, castration resistant prostate cancer occurs. In this study we aimed to investigate the terminology of castration resistant and refractory, hormone resistant and refractory articles on Web of Science database.

Materials And Methods: We searched the articles in the title section such as castration resistant prostate cancer, castration refractory prostate cancer, hormone resistant prostate cancer and hormone refractory prostate cancer between 1975 and 2018. Categories, publication years, document types, authors, countries, funding agencies and citation reports were recorded in 4 groups.

Results: There were 6733 articles in the system. Most of the articles (72.16%) were published as using castration resistant title. The United States of America and Italy were in the top 5 countries in 4 titles. Oncology and urology nephrology categories consisted more than 80% of the articles. Of these articles, only 1745 (26%) articles had funding agency.

Discussion: Different terminology can be used in some diseases. One of these diseases is castration resistant prostate cancer which is referred to different terms such as castration refractory, hormone resistant and refractory. In this study we searched the literature and discussed the results.

Conclusion: Castration resistant prostate cancer is a serious health problem for clinicians and patients. If international associations, journals and authors use the same terminology, the articles can be published without different titles in the literature.

Purposes: This study aimed to clarify the clinical outcomes of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) treatment in patients with urothelial carcinoma (UC) of the prostatic urethra.

Methods: Between August 2003 and January 2023, 428 patients with non-muscle-invasive UC received BCG treatment (Tokyo strain, 80 mg, ≥ 5 times) in our hospital; 39 had UC of the prostatic urethra. We evaluated the cumulative incidence of intravesical recurrence, progression (muscle-invasive bladder cancer [MIBC] or metastasis), and subsequent radical cystectomy after BCG treatment in patients with UC of the prostatic urethra.

The uncertain ferroptosis-related role of berberine in prostate cancer was explored using network pharmacology methodology. Integration of ferroptosis targets in prostate cancer from the Genecard database and berberine targets from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology and SwissTargetPrediction databases revealed 17 common targets. Among these, 10 hub genes, including CCNB1, CDK1, AURKA, AR, CDC42, ICAM1, TYMS, NTRK1, PTGS2, and SCD, were identified.

Purpose: This study focused on reducing the margin for prostate cancer treatment using magnetic resonance imaging-guided radiotherapy by investigating the intrafractional motion of the prostate and different motion-mitigation strategies.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed intrafractional prostate motion in 77 patients with low- to intermediate-risk prostate cancer treated with five fractions of 7.25 Gy on a 1.

Background: Few studies have examined how cancer incidence varies by country of origin among United States Hispanic/Latino adults. Herein, we describe the incidence rates of cancer overall and for screen-detectable, tobacco-related, and obesity-related cancers among 16,415 participants in the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos (HCHS/SOL), an ongoing population-based cohort study of Hispanic/Latino adults from diverse backgrounds.

Methods: Cohort participant records were linked to the state cancer registries in New York, Florida, California, and Illinois to ascertain cancer incidence from baseline (2008-2011) through 2021.

January 2025

From the Department of Neurosurgery, Chongqing General Hospital, Chongqing University, Chongqing, China.

Objective: Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors in adults, and the role of hormone therapy (HT) in their development remains controversial. This study with a cohort design aimed to investigate the association between HT use and glioma risk using the data from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial.

Methods: We analyzed data from 75,335 women, aged 50-78, who were enrolled between 1993 and 2001.
