This study looked at the use of renal denervation surgery (RDS) in patients with resistant hypertension. They found that after 12 months RDS led to a significant drop in blood pressure in these patients.

This study aimed to compare the effects of prostatic urethral lift (PUL) and medical treatment on sexual function in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The main finding was that PUL was more effective at preserving sexual health in these men.

This study compared the effect of esaxerenone (Minnebro) to eplerenone (Inspra) on night-time blood pressure (BP). It found that esaxerenone had a greater effect on night-time BP than eplerenone.  

This study looked at the use of a temporarily implanted nitinol device (iTind) for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The authors found that iTind reduced LUTS and preserved sexual function in patients with BPH. 

This study looked at the effect of a plant-based diet on blood pressure (BP). It found that plant-based diets resulted in lower BP. Two types of diet, the Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet and the lacto-ovo vegetarian diet, were most effective at lowering BP.

This study investigated if low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (LIEST) is a good treatment for patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). Researchers suggested that LIEST is a good and safe treatment for these patients.

This study investigated if the triglyceride-glucose index (TGI) is associated with erectile dysfunction (ED). Researchers suggested that TGI is a useful factor in the diagnosis and follow-up of ED. 

This clinical trial looked at the effect of barberry on patients with high blood pressure. It found that barberry increased arteries’ flexibility and reduced inflammation.
