TL;DR: Use of a statistical model such as conditional (multinomial) regression to anchor quality of life values from ordinal data to death is inappropriate in the presence of respondents who do not conform to the assumptions of conventional random utility theory.

TL;DR: Laser therapy and transurethral prostatic resection are effective for decreasing lower urinary tract symptoms and post-void residual urine volume as well as improving quality of life and maximum urinary flow in the short term in men presenting with moderate to severe symptoms.

TL;DR: A capillary zone electrophoretic method for the rapid analysis of the major alkaloids (arecoline and guavacoline) in areca nut extract is described and is applicable to the analysis of alkaloid in the nut, commercial preparations and in the saliva of areca Nut chewers.

TL;DR: The aim of this systematic review was to identify RCTs of interventions for the management of CPSP, and synthesize data across treatment type to estimate their effectiveness and safety.

TL;DR: Analysis of prostate and breast cancer genomes and Repli-Seq and integrated epigenome analyses demonstrate that genomic regions that undergo long-range epigenetic deregulation in prostate cancer also show concordant differences in replication timing, and suggests that the nature of chromosomal rearrangement in cancer is related to the spatial and temporal positioning and altered epigenetic states of early-Replicating compared to late-replicating loci.
