This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy (Li-ESWT) for patients with diabetes and erectile dysfunction (ED). The data showed that Li-ESWT was safe and effective in improving the symptoms of ED in these patients.

This study directly compared the effectiveness of microdissection testicular sperm extraction (mTESE) versus multiple needle-pass percutaneous testicular sperm aspiration (TESA) in infertile men with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA). The data showed that the sperm retrieval rate was higher with mTESE than with multiple needle-pass TESA in these patients.

This study compared the effectiveness and safety of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) between randomized and real-world studies in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or melanoma. The data showed that ICIs were similarly effective and safe in both randomized and real-world studies for these patients.

This study compared the effectiveness and safety of short-term versus long-term dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using drug-eluting stents (DES) in patients at high bleeding risk. The data showed that short-term DAPT significantly reduced the risk of bleeding compared with long-term DAPT without an increase in the risk of death or heart attacks in these patients.

This study assessed the accuracy of whole-body (WB) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in evaluating the treatment response of blood cancers. The data indicated that WB-MRI had a high diagnostic performance for assessing the treatment response of blood cancers and its addition was strongly linked to better diagnostic sensitivity.

This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of continuous subcutaneous night-time only apomorphine (Apokyn) infusion for the treatment of insomnia in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). The data showed that continuous subcutaneous night-time only apomorphine was effective in improving sleep disturbances in patients with advanced PD and moderate to severe insomnia with manageable side effects.

This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of adding PolyPepI1018 peptide vaccine to fluoropyrimidine/bevacizumab (Avastin) maintenance therapy in patients with microsatellite stable (MSS) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The data showed that PolyPEPI1018 added to maintenance therapy was safe and associated with specific immune responses and antitumor activity in these patients.

This study compared the effectiveness and safety of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using drug-eluting stents (DES) versus coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with left main (LM) coronary artery disease (CAD). The data showed that both treatments were associated with a similar risk of heart attack, stroke, and death. PCI significantly increased the risk of unplanned revascularization compared to CABG 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 the long-term effects of a moderate low-carbohydrate diet (LCD) on blood glucose control and liver function in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The data showed that patients on a moderate LCD diet showed better blood glucose control and liver function over the long term than patients on a traditional diabetic diet (TDD).
