Introduction: Physicians spend an ever-rising amount of time to collect relevant information from highly variable medical reports and integrate them into the patient's health condition.
Objectives: We compared synoptic reporting based on data elements to narrative reporting in order to evaluate its capabilities to collect and integrate clinical information.
Methods: We developed a novel system to align medical reporting to data integration requirements and tested it in prostate cancer screening. We compared expenditure of time, data quality, and user satisfaction for data acquisition, integration, and evaluation.
Results: In a total of 26 sessions, 2 urologists, 2 radiologists, and 2 pathologists conducted the diagnostic work-up for prostate cancer screening with both narrative reporting and the novel system. The novel system led to a significantly reduced time for collection and integration of patient information (91%, p < 0.001), reporting in radiology (44%, p < 0.001) and pathology (33%, p = 0.154). The system usage showed a high positive effect on evaluated data quality parameters completeness, format, understandability, as well as user satisfaction.
Conclusion: This study provides evidence that synoptic reporting based on data elements is effectively reducing time for collection and integration of patient information. Further research is needed to assess the system's impact for different patient journeys.

Purpose: A novel theranostic radiopharmaceutical targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), [Ga]Ga/[Lu]Lu-NYM032, was developed and its diagnostic and therapeutic potential in the treatment of prostate cancer (PCa) was preliminarily evaluated.
Methods: The diagnostic efficacy of the PET tracer [Ga]Ga-NYM032 was first evaluated in PSMA-positive xenograft-bearing models (LNCaP models), followed by evaluation in 10 PCa patients using [Ga]Ga-PSMA617 a comparator. Finally, the therapeutic potential of [Lu]Lu-NYM032 was evaluated in LNCaP models.

Background: Prostate cancer therapy with surgical or chemical castration with GnRH agonists has been linked to elevated FSH levels, which may contribute to secondary health disorders, including atherosclerosis and diabetes. Although recent findings suggest a role for FSH beyond the reproductive system, its metabolic impact remains unclear and difficult to disentangle from that of androgens. In this study, we examined the metabolic changes induced by FSH and distinguished them from those caused by testosterone.

Purpose: 10-15% of prostate cancers (PCa) harbor recurrent FOXA1 aberrations whereby the alteration type and the effect on the forkhead( FKH) domain impacts protein-function. We developed a FOXA1 classification system to inform clinical management.
Experimental Design: 5,014 PCa were examined using whole exome and transcriptome sequencing from the Caris database.

Genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) are instrumental for modelling local and systemic features of complex diseases such as cancer. Non-invasive, longitudinal cell detection and monitoring in tumors, metastases and/or the micro-environment is paramount to achieve a better spatiotemporal understanding of cancer progression and to evaluate therapies in preclinical studies. Bioluminescent and fluorescent reporters marking tumor cells or their microenvironment are valuable for non-invasive cell detection and monitoring in vivo.

This study aims to investigate the effect and mechanism of cyclosporine A (CsA) on paclitaxel-resistant prostate cancer cells. Paclitaxel-resistant prostate cancer cell lines were established by gradual increment method. The proliferation of cells was tested using MTT and colony formation assay.
