Article Abstract

According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) belongs to the category of "Jing Long". Clinical management of BPH in TCM is root-aimed and kidney-targeted, in combination with the treatment of other viscera based on the syndrome differentiation of zang-fu organs. The neuro-endocrine-immune network of modern medicine is similar to the holistic concept of TCM. Based on the study of the neuro-endocrine-immune network, with kidney deficiency as the root of pathogenesis, and starting from the classification of viscera, this review elucidates the etiologic mechanisms of BHP from the perspective of Chinese and Western medicine and provides some reference for medication.

Objective: CXCR4 and integrin αβ play important roles in tumor biology and are highly expressed in multiple types of tumors. This study aimed to synthesize, preclinically evaluate, and clinically validate a novel dual-targeted PET imaging probe Ga-pentixafor-c(RGDfK) for its potential in imaging tumors.

Methods: The effects of Ga-pentixafor-c(RGDfK) on cell viability, targeting specificity, and affinity were assessed in the U87MG cells.

Tamsulosin is a highly selective α1A adrenergic receptor antagonist that can relax smooth muscles in the urethra, bladder neck, and prostate and improve urinary disorders. It is therefore widely used to treat lower urinary tract symptoms caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia. The aim of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics and bioequivalence of 2 different formulations (tamsulosin sustained-release tablets and tamsulosin sustained-release capsules) in healthy Chinese subjects.

Purpose Of Review: The expanding range of minimally invasive surgical therapies (MISTs) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) reflects a growing emphasis on individualized, anatomy-driven treatment that prioritizes symptom relief, reduced morbidity, and preservation of sexual function. This review provides a timely synthesis of MISTs, highlighting innovations in technique, key anatomical considerations, and evolving strategies for patient-centered care in the modern clinical setting.

Recent Findings: Recent studies highlight the expanding role of MISTs, such as UroLift, Rezūm, the temporary implanted nitinol device, Optilume BPH, transperineal laser ablation, and prostatic stents.

Background: Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common urological condition in aging men, often requiring surgical intervention for symptom relief.

Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and complication profile of monopolar transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in patients with BOO.

Methodology: This descriptive observational study was conducted at the Department of Urology, Hayatabad Medical Complex, Peshawar, and Akhtar Saeed Trust Hospital, Lahore, from August 2022 to July 2024.

Background: Concerns about potential prostate-related complications associated with testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) often lead hypogonadal men to remain untreated.

Method: This large-scale retrospective cohort study aimed to address these concerns by analyzing Medicare enrollment and claims data (Parts A/B/C/D) from 2007 to 2020 for men aged ≥65 with diagnosed primary or secondary hypogonadism. Cox regression analysis and 1:1 propensity score matching, both stratified by age group, were employed to evaluate the association between prostate outcomes and TRT use.
