Article Abstract

Objective: To investigate the risk factors of bladder neck contracture (BNC) after transurethral endoscopic surgery for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and to provide a reference basis for the clinic.

Methods: Clinical data of patients who underwent transurethral endoscopic surgery in our hospital from December 2019 to May 2023 were retrospectively collected. The incidence and risk factors of BNC after transurethral endoscopic surgery were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis.

Results: A total of 420 cases were included in this study, of which 246 were treated with bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate (bTURP) and 174 with green light laser vaporization of the prostate (GL-PVP), and there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of BNC when comparing these two types of operations. A total of 18 patients developed BNC after surgery, and the overall incidence of BNC was 4.29%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that smaller preoperative prostate volume ( = 0.042), smoking history ( = 0.009), positive preoperative urine culture ( = 0.001), and prolonged postoperative catheterization days ( = 0.003) were independent risk factors of BNC.

Conclusion: Smaller preoperative prostate volume, smoking history, positive preoperative urine culture, and prolonged postoperative indwelling catheterisation were independent risk factors for BNC.

: The therapeutic potential of vegetarian diets in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) remains understudied in Asian populations. This randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effects of a culturally adapted 6-month lacto-ovo-vegetarian diet (LOV-D) on hepatic steatosis and cardiometabolic risk factors through weight loss. : In this randomized trial, 220 Chinese adults with MASLD were assigned to LOV-D ( = 110) or an omnivore diet ( = 110) for 6 months.

Objectives: The Charlson comorbidity index reflects overall comorbidity burden and has been applied in cardiovascular medicine. However, its role in predicting in-hospital mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by ventricular arrhythmias (VA) remains unclear. This study aims to evaluate the predictive value of the Charlson comorbidity index in this setting and to construct a nomogram model for early risk identification and individualized management to improve outcomes.

Objectives: In recent years, the role of remnant cholesterol (RC) in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases has gained increasing attention. However, evidence on the association between RC and subclinical atherosclerosis is limited. This study aims to examine the relationship between RC and atherosclerotic plaques in single and multiple vascular territories.

Objectives: Intracranial aneurysm (IA) has an insidious onset, and once ruptured, it carries high rates of mortality and disability. Cardiometabolic factors may be associated with the formation and rupture of IA. This study aims to summarize the application of Mendelian randomization (MR) methods in research on cardiometabolic factors and IA, providing insights for further elucidation of IA etiology and pathogenesis.

Background: Effective risk communication is essential in managing cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of global mortality. Clear communication between patients and physicians supports informed decision-making, yet comprehension gaps persist. We aimed to assess the quality of risk communication during hospital admissions for cardiovascular events, from patient and physician perspectives, and identify discrepancies in risk perception and associated factors.
