Article Abstract
Background: Recent EAU guideline strongly recommended combined targeted biopsy (TBx) with systematic biopsy (SBx) for biopsy naïve patients with suspected multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) lesions; However, the clinical goal is to find out how to determine the optimal SBx and TBx cores for biopsy in order to maximize the detection of csPCa and minimize the associated defects. This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of the new biopsy strategy combining 6-core systematic and 3-core MRI- TBx compared to 12-core systematic and 3-core MRI-TBx strategy.
Methods: This is a single-center, prospectively randomized controlled clinical trial. 280 men meeting inclusion criteria will be recruited and will be randomly allocated to either 6-core systematic plus 3-core MRI-TBx group (Group A) or 12-core systematic plus 3-core MRI-TBx group (Group B). The primary outcome compares the detection rate of PCa and clinically significant prostate cancer(csPCa) between group A and group B. The secondary outcomes compare the participant-reported pain score immediate post biopsy using pain measurement scale; proportion of men with post-biopsy complications and adverse events (Time frame: 7 days post biopsy, 30 days post biopsy); proportion of the men who undergo radical prostatectomy and have cancer upgraded histopathology from the biopsy to the radical prostatectomy.
Results And Discussion: A new biopsy strategy should be developed with the goal of minimizing procedure invasion, our study will provide the results of efficacy and safety of the new biopsy strategy (6-core systematic and 3-core MRI-TBx) in biopsy naïve men with suspicious mpMRI lesion in comparison with 12-core systematic and 3-core MRI-TBx.

Background: To evaluate unilateral systematic biopsy (SB) combined with targeted biopsy (TB) and assess its diagnostic accuracy in a real-world, single-centre setting.
Methods: Patients with ≥1 MRI lesion who underwent both transperineal 12-core and 3-core TB were enrolled in this study. Detection rates for total prostate cancer (PCa) and clinically significant PCa (csPCa) were compared between TB, unilateral SB+TB, and SB+TB.

: Solid organ transplantation improves survival and quality of life but requires lifelong self-management. While models exist for kidney and liver recipients, a comprehensive framework for all solid organ transplant recipients is lacking. Addressing this gap is essential for optimizing post-transplant care.

Background: Rural populations are disproportionately affected by preventable childhood hearing loss, which is associated with speech and language delays, impaired social development, and decreased educational attainment. Rural schools are critical access points for preventive health screenings such as hearing screening, but variable screening implementation, loss to follow-up, and scarcity of specialists in rural areas diminish program effectiveness. We seek to implement a school-based telehealth intervention to increase access to specialty hearing care for children in rural Kentucky.

Objectives: To optimize in-context learning in biomedical natural language processing by improving example selection.
Materials And Methods: We introduce a novel multi-mode retrieval-augmented generation (MMRAG) framework, which integrates 4 retrieval strategies: (1) Random Mode, selecting examples arbitrarily; (2) Top Mode, retrieving the most relevant examples based on similarity; (3) Diversity Mode, ensuring variation in selected examples; and (4) Class Mode, selecting category-representative examples. This study evaluates MMRAG on 3 core biomedical NLP tasks: Named Entity Recognition (NER), Relation Extraction (RE), and Text Classification (TC).
Tailoring Cu-based small-pore zeolites towards NH-SCR for NO abatement.

Selective catalytic reduction with ammonia (NH-SCR) stands as the most effective technology for mitigating nitrogen oxide (NO) emissions from diesel engines and industrial sources. Over the past few decades, Cu-based small-pore zeolites have emerged as leading catalysts for NH-SCR owing to their broad operational temperature window, exceptional N selectivity, superior low-temperature activity, and robust hydrothermal stability. This review systematically provides the structural and mechanistic aspects governing the performance of Cu-based small-pore zeolites.
