Management of Prostate Cancer in Elderly Patients: Recommendations of a Task Force of the International Society of Geriatric Oncology
Conclusions Advances in geriatric evaluation and treatments for localised and advanced disease are contributing to more appropriate management of elderly patients with prostate cancer. A better understanding of the role of active surveillance for less aggressive disease is also contributing to the individualisation of care. Patient summary Many men with prostate cancer are elderly. In the physically fit, treatment should be the same as in younger patients. However, some elderly prostate cancer patients are frail and have other medical problems. Treatment in the individual patient should be based on health status and patien...

Obesity and kidney stone disease: a systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: Obesity related nephrolithiasis seems to necessitate weight loss as primary treatment, but the recognition of the associated complications is necessary to prevent induction of new and equally severe medical problems. The optimal approach to obesity control that minimizes stone risk needs to be determined in order to manage obesity-induced renal stones disease. PMID: 29856171 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Urinary incontinence in geriatric patients: behavioral therapy, toilet training and physiotherapy.
CONCLUSION:  Behavioral treatment, toilet training, and phsiotherapeutical interventions are indispensable modules in the multifaceted approach to improve continence in frail elderly. Caring for multimorbide frail elderly requires carefully outweighing risks of pharmacological and surgical treatment against benefits of low risk interventions such as conservative therapy. Frail elderly often benefit from conservative treatment alone or in combination with other treatment modalities. PMID: 31466099 [PubMed - in process]

Testosterone therapy in diabetes and pre ‐diabetes
Conclusion: Weight loss and physical activities are able to improve bothmetabolic profile and T levels. The combined approach of TRT and life-style modificationscould be suggested in symptomatic hypogonadal men to better motivate patients to perform physical activity which can eventually result in weight loss as well as metabolic profile and sexual function improvement. Whether or not these approaches can prevent the development of T2DM from pre-clinical conditions requires more studies.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved

Long-lasting clinical symptoms 6  months after COVID-19 infection in the French national cohort of patients on dialysis
CONCLUSIONS: This national study shows that at least one in six patients on dialysis who have COVID-19 will have LLCS. Systematic screening in dialysis patients would allow us to identify those who need more careful prevention and long-term care and to address them towards a rehabilitation pathway.PMID:35294748 | PMC:PMC8924724 | DOI:10.1007/s40620-022-01295-z

Ultrafiltration for the treatment of congestion: a window into the lung for a better caress to the heart
A significant proportion of patients treated for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) suffer from worsening renal function, which is often associated with medical therapy resistance and poor outcome. In this setting, haemofiltration has been used for more than 30 years, despite inconclusive evidence for its advantages. In the last decade, a major technological advances have made available a new technique, ultrafiltration, which works at lower blood flow rates and requires only a venous access. As in a first proof-of-concept study (EUPHORIA), ultrafiltration proved to be efficacious in fluid removal in ADHF patients; th...

Diabetic nephropathy: What does the future hold?
Abstract The consensus management of diabetic nephropathy (DN) in 2015 involves good control of glycaemia, dyslipidaemia and blood pressure (BP). Blockade of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system using angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin-2 receptor blockers or mineralocorticoid inhibitors are key therapeutic approaches, shown to be beneficial once overt nephropathy is manifest, as either, or both, of albuminuria and loss of glomerular filtration rate. Some significant additional clinical benefits in slowing the progression of DN was reported from the Remission clinic experience, where ...

Dietary weight loss strategies for kidney stone patients
ConclusionAn energy-restricted diet with or without meal replacement could be a promising weight loss strategy for overweight kidney stone patients. Further studies are needed to evaluate the impact of different weight loss strategies on urinary risk factors and cardiometabolic risk profile in urolithiasis.

Bariatric Surgery to Treat Obesity
Summary: Obesity has become a global health problem that contributes to numerous life-threatening and disabling diseases, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease. The long-term results of traditional weight loss therapies, including diet, exercise, and medications, are relatively poor. Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment of morbidly obese patients to allow substantial, sustained weight loss and to improve or resolve obesity-associated comorbidities, thereby reducing mortality. According to US practice guidelines, patients qualify for bariatric surgery with a body mass index of 35 kg/m2 a...

A Behavioral Weight Loss Program and Non-Urinary Incontinence Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms in Overweight and Obese Women with Urinary Incontinence: A Secondary Data Analysis of the Program to Reduce Incontinence by Diet and Exercise (PRIDE)
To determine whether a behavioral weight reduction intervention improves non-urinary incontinence (UI) lower urinary tract storage symptoms (LUTS) including urinary frequency, nocturia, urgency, at 6 months compared to a structured education program (control group) among overweight and obese women with UI.
