Background: The burden of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) equates to 3.5 million cases, resulting in more than 90 000 deaths and 2.5 million disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) across Europe.

Purpose: To establish a prognostic model to estimate progression-free survival (PFS) probability in bladder cancer (BCa) patients undergoing partial cystectomy.
Material And Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent partial cystectomy between August 2012 and April 2021 were enrolled. The primary endpoint was PFS during the follow-up.
Purpose: To evaluate the safety, diagnostic accuracy, and factors influencing the diagnostic yield of ultrasound (US)-guided omental biopsies.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included 109 patients who underwent US-guided omental biopsies between June 2020 and June 2024. Pre-biopsy diagnostic images (CT, MRI, or [18 F]FDG PET/CT) were reviewed.

Objectives: The Scrotal and Penile Imaging Working Group (SPIWG) of the European Society of Urogenital Radiology (ESUR) aimed to formulate recommendations on the imaging modalities and minimal technical requirements for abdominopelvic imaging in the follow-up of adult patients treated for testicular germ-cell tumors (TGCT).
Methods: The SPIWG members performed an extensive literature search, reviewed the current clinical practice, and reached a consensus based on the opinions of experts in the field.
Results: Recurrence in patients treated for TGCT mainly occurs in retroperitoneal lymph nodes (LNs).

Background/aims: Rare disease drug development faces unique challenges, such as genotypic and phenotypic heterogeneity within small patient populations and a lack of established outcome measures for conditions without previously successful drug development programs. These challenges complicate the process of selecting the appropriate trial endpoints and conducting clinical trials in rare diseases. In this descriptive study, we examined novel drug approvals for non-oncologic rare diseases by the U.
