This study evaluated the association between statin (cholesterol-lowering drugs) use and survival outcomes in men with advanced prostate cancer (PC) undergoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). The data showed that statin use improved the survival outcomes in these patients.

This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections for the treatment of patients with mild and moderate erectile dysfunction (ED). The data showed that PRP was a safe and promising treatment for improving mild to moderate ED.

This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of Quisqualis indica (Rangoon creeper or Chinese honeysuckle; a type of plant) extract for the treatment of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The data showed that Quisqualis indica extract was safe and effective for the treatment of these patients.

This study evaluated the outcomes of single-pass versus multiple-pass during aquablation in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The data showed that treatment with multiple passes during aquablation improved the urinary outcomes compared to a single pass in these patients.

This study evaluated the bone mineral density (BMD) screening rates and their association with fracture rates among older men with prostate cancer (PC) receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). The data showed that BMD screening is associated with a lower major fracture risk in these patients.

This study evaluated depression, anxiety, and patterns of mental health care in patients with prostate cancer receiving hormonal therapy such as androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). The data showed that almost half of the patients with prostate cancer receiving ADT diagnosed with depression do not receive a documented mental health treatment.

This study reviewed the effect of diabetes on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The data suggested that LUTS were increased in patients with BPH that had diabetes compared to patients without diabetes.

This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of combining low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy (Li-ESWT) with tadalafil (Cialis) and L-arginine for the treatment of patients with mild and moderate erectile dysfunction (ED). The data showed that daily therapy with tadalafil and L-arginine increased the effectiveness and the duration of benefits of Li-ESWT for these patients.

This study compared the effectiveness of PARP inhibitors for the treatment of patients with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in solid tumors. The data showed that PARP inhibitors could benefit both patients with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations with similar effectiveness.
