There is increasing evidence suggesting that establishment of sister chromatid cohesion N-acetyltransferase 1 (ESCO1) was involved in tumorigenesis. However, its role in bladder cancer remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to study the clinical correlation and biological significance of ESCO1 in bladder cancer. Our results showed that ESCO1 was significantly over-expressed in bladder cancer tissues compared with that in adjacent normal tissues. And, increased ESCO1 expression was significantly associated with higher grade (P < 0.001), higher tumor stage (P = 0.014), and multifocality (P = 0.042). Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards model were performed to determine the prognostic significance of ESCO1, and the results showed that ESCO1 is a useful prognostic marker for bladder cancer patients. Moreover, we found that ESCO1 knockdown inhibited the growth, migration, and invasion of bladder cancer cells. In conclusion, our findings indicated that ESCO1 may play an important role in human bladder cancer, and ESCO1 might serve as a novel target and prognosis factor for human bladder cancer.

Purpose: To evaluate a generative artificial intelligence (GAI) framework for creating readable lay abstracts and summaries (LASs) of urologic oncology research, while maintaining accuracy, completeness, and clarity, for the purpose of assessing their comprehension and perception among patients and caregivers.
Methods: Forty original abstracts (OAs) on prostate, bladder, kidney, and testis cancers from leading journals were selected. LASs were generated using a free GAI tool, with three versions per abstract for consistency.

BACKGROUND Non-traumatic bladder rupture, a rare yet potentially life-threatening condition, can stem from diverse factors such as malignancies, bladder inflammation, or bladder diverticulum rupture. Pelvic radiotherapy, in extremely rare instances, can lead to radiation cystitis and subsequent bladder fistula formation. Patients with such conditions often present with abdominal pain, hematuria, oliguria, and urinary ascites.

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the impact of day- and night-time pad wetness on 2yrs-QoL after Radical Cystectomy (RC) with Orthotopic Neobladder (ON) from a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) aimed at comparing open RC (ORC) and Robot-Assisted RC (RARC) with intracorporeal (i) ON.
Methods: Between January 2018 and September 2020, 116 patients were enrolled. Data from self-assessed questionnaires (EORTC-QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BLM30) were collected.

Immunogenic cell death (ICD) is a type of cell death sparking adaptive immune responses that can reshape the tumor microenvironment. Exploring key ICD-related genes in bladder cancer (BLCA) could enhance personalized treatment. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) BLCA patients were divided into two ICD subtypes: ICD-high and ICD-low.
