- 3From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedA repeat biopsy procedure is performed in patients with suspicion of prostate cancer after initial biopsy. However, the optimal strategy for repeat biopsy is not known. A new study now elucidates the ideal number and...
- 4From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedThe Scribble complex is one of several protein complexes involved in maintaining cellular polarity. As loss of polarity is characteristic of epithelial cancers, polarity regulators could be important in the prevention...
- 5From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-Reviewed[11C]choline PET-CT could be an effective and noninvasive method for identifying patients with high-risk prostate cancer who need pelvic radiotherapy. Following on from promising preliminary studies of [11C] choline...
- 6From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedSystemic inflammation has been linked with the progression of cancer, and, in patients with urological cancers, the presence of a systemic inflammatory response is thought to be indicative of poor prognosis. C-reactive...
- 7From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedWarm ischemia time during partial nephrectomy is an important risk factor for renal failure after surgery. A new study proposes using anatomic vascular microdissection of renal artery branches to perform zero-ischemia...
- 8From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedExpression of the annexin ANXA10 in bladder tumors has been investigated using tissue microarrays. Low expression of ANXA10 was associated with shorter progression-free survival in patients with stage Ta and T1 bladder...
- 9From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedOver the past decade or so, the use of focal cryotherapy for localized prostate cancer has increased by more than 1,000-fold. Stephen Jones and John Ward have now published a report on the outcomes and complications...

- 14From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedAccurate prediction of Gleason grade before treatment begins is crucially important in decision-making because it is a predictor of prostate cancer aggressiveness. A recent study has reported that biopsies targeted...
- 15From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedNew data reveal a complex role for thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) in prostate cancer, able to both inhibit angiogenesis and stimulate tumor progression. Florence Cabon and colleagues report their findings in Cancer Research....
- 16From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedA new nomogram to predict minimal prostate cancer (tumors of less than 0.5 [cm.sup.3], organ-confined disease and no Gleason pattern 4 or 5) has been developed. O'Brien et al. used preoperative data from 2,525...
- 17From: Nature Reviews Urology. (Vol. 8, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedSSX family proteins are differentially expressed in prostate tumor tissues, and could provide potential targets for cancer treatment using immune therapies, according to a study published in Cancer Research....
