Purpose: We sought to develop and validate a prostate biopsy risk calculator for Black men and compare it with the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial version 2.0, Prostate Biopsy Collaborative Group, and Kaiser Permanente Prostate Cancer Risk Calculators for the detection of Gleason Grade Group (GG) ≥ 2 prostate cancer (PCa).
Materials And Methods: We prospectively recruited 2 cohorts of men undergoing prostate biopsy from 5 facilities in Chicago.

Article Synopsis
- Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) has proven advantages for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), but its adoption in Medicare and similar populations remains low despite advancements allowing for same-day discharge.
- A study analyzing data from the Nationwide Ambulatory Surgery Sample (NASS) from 2016 to 2019 revealed a 20% overall drop in BPH surgeries, yet HoLEP's usage increased from 4.7% to 8.3% of total surgeries, becoming the second most common procedure.
- The increase in HoLEP procedures was notably seen in the South and Midwest regions, highlighting a growing acceptance of this technique even as the total number of BPH surgeries
Objective: Shared decision-making (SDM) is an approach to patient-centered care that is strongly recommended when counseling patients for screening and treatment of prostate cancer. However, providers report lack of comfort with SDM and particularly in disparate populations. We report our experience designing and piloting an online workshop to educate practicing urologists on SDM in diverse populations.
