    Abstract Objectives: This work aimed to prevent stoma stenosis and achieve tubeless cutaneous ureterostomy in elderly and high-risk patients with our modified cutaneous ureterostomy.
    Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 40 and 49 patients (176 renal units) who underwent Toyoda (group 1) and modified cutaneous ureterostomy (group 2) between 2012 and 2021. The average follow-up period was 44 months. The primary results of our study were the catheter-free rate and clinical outcomes, especially renal function and urinary diversion-related complications. Significant differences in catheter-free rate and urinary diversion-related complications were found between our modified method and the Toyoda technique.
    Results: A total of 56 (71.8%) of 78 renal units in group 1 and 89 (90.8%) of 98 renal units in group 2 remained catheter free. Compared with group 1, group 2 had a higher catheter-free rate (
    Conclusion: Our modified cutaneous ureterostomy method may provide an effective and simple approach to tubeless cutaneous ureterostomy in elderly and high-risk patients.

    Abstract Background: Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) is closely related to the occurrence, development, metastasis and antitumor immunity of tumors. However, comprehensive studies correlating EMT and prognosis, tumor microenvironment (TME) and molecular subtypes of bladder cancer (BLCA) are lacking.
    Methods: TCGA-BLCA was chosen as our training cohort, while Xiangya cohort, GSE13507, GSE48075 were selected as our validation cohorts. Prognostic genes were screened out using univariate Cox analysis and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm. Then we developed an EMT risk score based on these prognostic genes and systematically correlated the risk score with prognosis, TME and molecular subtypes of BLCA.
    Results: Based on EMT related genes, we developed two different EMT patterns, named EMT cluster 1 and cluster 2, and found that cluster 2 showed a worse prognosis and an inflammatory TME phenotype. For personalized prognosis and TME phenotypes predicting, we developed and validated an EMT-based risk score by 7 candidate genes (ANXA10, CNTN1, FAM180A, FN1, IGFL2, KANK4 and TOX3). Patients with high EMT risk scores had lower overall survival (OS) with high predictive accuracy both in the training cohort and validation cohort. In addition, we comprehensively correlated the EMT risk score with TME and molecular subtype, and found that high EMT risk score suggested higher levels of immune cell infiltration and more inclined to present the basal molecular subtype. It was noteworthy that the same results also appeared in the validation of Xiangya cohort.
    Conclusions: EMT related genes play an important role in tumor progression and immunity in BLCA. Our EMT risk score could accurately predict prognosis and immunophenotype of a single patient, which could guide more effective precision medical strategies.

    Abstract Objective: To investigate the safety and efficacy of the two-channel dilatation procedure for subcutaneous tunneling in the lower abdomen during pelvic lymph node dissection for penile cancer.
    Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 6 patients treated from January 2020 to December 2022 using the dual-channel expansion technique for penile cancer lymph node dissection.
    Results: All 6 cases ( 12 sides) successfully underwent prophylactic inguinal lymph node dissection. The average laparoscopic dissection time was ( 82.50 ± 12.08) minutes per side, with an average blood loss of (28.33 ± 10.95) ml. The number of lymph nodes dissected was (11.16 ± 1.02) for the superficial group and ( 0.67 ± 0.74 ) for the deep group. Postoperative pathology was negative in all cases. The average postoperative hospital stay was (7.33 ± 1.60 ) days, with a catheter removal time of (12.00 ± 2.06)days. Postoperative complications included abnormal skin sensations in 5 sides, lower limb edema in 3 sides, lymphedema in 3 sides, and cellulitis in 1 side. During a follow-up period of (20.60 ± 12.51)months, there were no instances of tumor recurrence or metastasis in the inguinal region among the patients.
    Conclusion: The dual-channel expansion technique for inguinal lymph node dissection via a subcutaneous tunnel is a safe and feasible treatment for penile cancer. It has a low complication rate, allows for thorough dissection of inguinal lymph nodes, and offers advantages in terms of surgical time.

    Abstract In bladder cancer patients, metastasis after surgical resection and serious adverse reactions brought by cisplatin-based systemic chemotherapy make it urgent to explore novel therapeutic methods for improving the clinical outcomes of patients with unsuccessful first-line chemotherapy and disease progression. In this study, GBX2 has been recognized as a differentially expressed transcriptional factor between bladder cases with response to treatment and progressive disease based on online expression profile analysis. Higher GBX2 expression was correlated with poorer OS, DSS, and PFS in bladder cancer patients. GBX2 co-expressed genes were enriched in ECM regulation. ITGA5 was positively correlated with GBX2. GBX2 and ITGA5 were notably elevated in bladder cancer cells. GBX2 and ITGA5 similarly affected bladder cancer cell phenotypes via facilitating cell viability, migration, and invasion. By binding to the promoter region of ITGA5, GBX2 activated ITGA5 transcription, upregulating ITGA5 expression. In bladder cancer cells co-transfected with sh-GBX2 and ITGA5 oe, the inhibitory effects of GBX2 knockdown on bladder cancer cell malignant behaviors were partially eliminated by ITGA5 overexpression. In conclusion, GBX2 and ITGA5 serve as oncogenic factors, promoting the viability, migration, and invasion of bladder cancer cells. GBX2 exerts its functions by targeting the ITGA5 promoter region to activate ITGA5 transcription.

    Abstract Background: Evaluation of the feasibility for osteopontin (OPN) to serve as a biomarker in the prognosis and clinical-pathological features of prostate cancer (PCA) patients.
    Methods: The original publications related to OPN and PCA were comprehensively searched in the online databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Medline, Wanfang and China National Knowledge Infrastructure up to August 2019. Results were analyzed by Revman 5.3 and Stata 12.0.
    Results: A total of 21 studies were included in the analysis and the result showed that the positive OPN expression group had a lower overall survival than the negative expression group (univariate: hazards ratio (HR) = 2.32, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) [1.74, 3.10], multivariate: HR = 2.41, 95% CI [1.63, 3.57]) and a lower biochemical relapse-free survival than the negative group (univariate: HR = 1.42, 95% CI [0.92, 2.17], multivariate: HR = 1.61, 95% CI [1.39, 1.87]). In addition, there was a higher expression level of OPN in PCA tissues than in normal prostate tissues (OR = 46.55, 95% CI [12.85, 168.59], P<0.00001) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) tissues (OR = 11.07, 95% CI [3.43, 35.75], P<0.0001). Moreover, OPN positive expression was also related to high Gleason score (OR = 2.64, 95% CI [1.49, 4.70], P=0.0009), high TNM stage (OR = 3.15, 95% CI [1.60, 6.20, P=0.0009), high Whitmore-Jewett stage (OR = 2.53, 95% CI [1.06, 6.03], P=0.04), high lymph node (OR = 3.69, 95% CI [1.88, 7.23], P=0.0001), and distant metastasis (OR = 8.10, 95% CI [2.94, 22.35], P=0.01). There was no difference observed in the differentiation of PCA (OR = 1.79, 95% CI [0.39, 8.33], P=0.46).
    Conclusion: OPN could be recognized as a promising diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for PCA patients.

    Abstract Objectives: It is an important reform for medical education in China to combine professional postgraduate training with standardized resident training. This study aims to evaluate the depression and perceived stress in postgraduate students of clinical medicine and residents from society and to determine the relation between depression and perceived stress in medical residents.
    Methods: Chinese Perceived Stress Scale (CPSS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) were applied to 330 residents (including 235 postgraduate students of clinical medicine and 95 residents from society) from a Class-A Grade-3 genernal hospital in Hunan Province to evaluate and compare the depression and perceived stress in postgraduate students of clinical medicine and residents from society. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to assess the association between depression and perceived stress. Stress resources between 2 groups of residents were observed and compared.
    Results: Of the 235 postgraduate students of clinical medicine, 148 (63.0%) showed depression and 162 (68.9%) showed elevated perceived stress. Main stress resources were academic pressure, scientific research pressure, and employment pressure. Of the 95 residents from society, 52 (54.7%) showed depression and 58 (61.1%) showed elevated perceived stress. Main stress resources were economic stress, employment pressure, and academic pressure. The scores of CPSS and SDS were significantly higher in postgraduate students of clinical medicine than those in residents from society (
    Conclusions: Residents (including postgraduate students of clinical medicine and residents from society) possess depression and elevated perceived stress with positive correlation. The postgraduate students of clinical medicine show higher level of depression and perceived stress than the residents from society under the "unified double-track" training system.

    Abstract Purpose: Previous research has shown that bladder cancer has one of the highest incidences of developing a second primary malignancy. So, we designed this study to further examine this risk in light of race and histology.
    Patients and methods: Using the surveillance, epidemiology, and end results (SEER) 18 registry, we retrospectively screened patients who had been diagnosed with bladder cancer between 2000 and 2018. We then tracked these survivors until a second primary cancer diagnosis, the conclusion of the trial, or their deaths. In addition to doing a competing risk analysis, we derived standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) and incidence rate ratios (IRRs) for SPMs by race and histology.
    Results: A total of 162,335 patients with bladder cancer were included, and during follow-ups, a second primary cancer diagnosis was made in 31,746 of these patients. When the data were stratified by race, SIRs and IRRs for SPMs showed a significant difference: Asian/Pacific Islanders (APIs) had a more pronounced increase in SPMs (SIR: 2.15;
    Conclusion: We found that race had an impact on both the type and risk of SPMs. Additionally, the likelihood of an SPM increases with the length of time between the two malignancies and the stage of the index malignancy.

    Abstract Background: Though immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) exhibit durable efficacy in bladder carcinomas (BLCAs), there are still a large portion of patients insensitive to ICIs treatment.
    Methods: We systematically evaluated the cuproptosis patterns in BLCA patients based on 46 cuproptosis related genes and correlated these cuproptosis patterns with tumor microenvironment (TME) phenotypes and immunotherapy efficacies. Then, for individual patient's evaluation, we constructed a cuproptosis risk score (CRS) for prognosis and a cuproptosis signature for precise TME phenotypes and immunotherapy efficacies predicting.
    Results: Two distinct cuproptosis patterns were generated. These two patterns were consistent with inflamed and noninflamed TME phenotypes and had potential role for predicting immunotherapy efficacies. We constructed a CRS for predicting individual patient's prognosis with high accuracy in TCGA-BLCA. Importantly, this CRS could be well validated in external cohorts including GSE32894 and GSE13507. Then, we developed a cuproptosis signature and found it was significantly negative correlated with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) both in TCGA-BLCA and Xiangya cohorts. Moreover, we revealed that patients in the high cuproptosis signature group represented a noninflamed TME phenotype on the single cell level. As expected, patients in the high cuproptosis signature group showed less sensitive to immunotherapy. Finally, we found that the high and low cuproptosis signature groups were consistent with luminal and basal subtypes of BLCA respectively, which validated the role of signature in TME in terms of molecular subtypes.
    Conclusions: Cuproptosis patterns depict different TME phenotypes in BLCA. Our CRS and cuproptosis signature have potential role for predicting prognosis and immunotherapy efficacy, which might guide precise medicine.
