Postoperative D-dimer predicts venous thromboembolism in patients undergoing urologic tumor surgery
We examined the incidence of pulmonary thromboembolism (PE) and deep venous thromboembolism (DVT) in patients who underwent urologic tumor surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the postoperative D-dimer for prediction of venous thromboembolism events (VTE), as well as to identify other risk factors associated with the occurrence of thromboembolisms.

The risk of prostate cancer mortality and cardiovascular mortality of nonmetastatic prostate cancer patients: A population-based retrospective cohort study
To assess the risk of prostate cancer (PCa) specific mortality (PCSM) compared to cardiovascular disease mortality (CVDM), or other-cause mortality (OCM) of men with nonmetastatic PCa according to PCa risk groups, primary treatment, and age.

Key design and analysis principles for quality of life and patient-reported outcomes in clinical trials
We present these principles and argue that adherence to these principles is vital to ensure valid interpretation of clinical trial findings, identify meaningful differences among investigational strategies, and better translate clinical trial results to diverse stakeholders.

Implementation science theories to inform efforts for de-implementation of urologic oncology care practices resulting in overuse and misuse
The field of implementation science has been conventionally applied in the context of increasing the application of evidence-based practices into clinical care, given evidence of underusage of appropriate interventions in many settings. Increasingly, however, there is recognition of the potential for similar frameworks to inform efforts to reduce the application of ineffective or potentially harmful practices. In this article, we provide some examples of clinical scenarios in which the quality problem may be overuse and misuse, and review relevant theories and frameworks that may inform improvement activities.

CO suppresses prostate cancer cell growth by directly targeting LKB1/AMPK/mTOR pathway in vitro and in vivo
CO is a freely diffusible gas that acts as a physiological mediator of many biological and cellular processes, which has been shown to possess anticancer effect in many kinds of cancers. However, the effect of CO on prostate cancer has not been demonstrated. Therefore, we analyzed the antitumor activities and related mechanisms of CO on prostate cancer in vitro and in vivo.

The relationship of travel distance with cystectomy access and outcomes
Regionalization of care and travel distance may result in unintended consequences for complex surgery such as cystectomy. Our objective was to evaluate effect of differential distance on cystectomy receipt among patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) and investigate the association between travel distance and cystectomy outcomes such as readmission.
