Methods to increase equity, diversity, and inclusion in Canadian urology programs
CONCLUSIONS: Recommendations identified include mentorship, holistic application review by diverse selection committees with bias training, and development of funded internship programs. Standardized questions and rubrics were also well-studied. Business strategies, such as publishing diversity statements and application blinding, are less studied in medical education literature. This study is unique in its inclusion of both medical and business literature and highlights concrete strategies for urology residency programs to increase EDI during recruitment.PMID:37581555 | DOI:10.5489/cuaj.8224

Hands-on teaching for students in urology : The use of peer teaching and simulators.
DISCUSSION: Peer teaching and simulators are reasonable tools in medical education in urology. They increase individual coaching of students and lead to improved satisfaction and subjective learning success. Interprofessional education with the selective use of nursing staff as teachers was widely accepted. With these tools essential hands-on skills in urology can be acquired by all medical students.

Selling blood and gametes during tough economic times: insights from Google search.
CONCLUSION: Google search volume data for search terms relating to sperm, egg, and blood donation increase during economic downturns. This finding suggests gamete and bodily fluid donations are influenced by market forces like other commodities. Google search may be useful for predicting blood donation trends but is more limited in predicting actual semen and oocyte donation patterns. PMID: 26432967 [PubMed - in process]

Non ‐medical prescribing in prostate cancer care: a case study reflection
ABSTRACT There are approximately 54 000 nurse and midwife prescribers across the United Kingdom (UK), with 19 000 nurse independent and supplementary prescribers. Prostate cancer specialist nurses are ideally suited to implement advanced levels of practice in non‐medical prescribing, but little has been detailed in the literature about the prescribing practice in this clinical context. This paper set out to critically review evidence‐based recommendations for Prostate Cancer Specialist Nurses using a case study reflection to contextualize the role of non‐medical prescribing. A structured literature review was con...

The influence of luts medical treatment on bph surgery: do we operate too late?
CONCLUSION: Several questions remain open on how medical treatment has changed the natural history of BPH and surprisingly rare good quality studies are available on this topic. The evidence summarized in our review support the need of prospective comparative studies evaluating long-term LUTS/BPH pharmacological treatment versus an early surgical intervention, particularly using the emerging laser technologies.

COVID-19 in urology : Influence of the pandemic on telemedicine, education and surgery.
Abstract The COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) pandemic has caused a worldwide economic and clinical disaster. During times with the highest infection rates, clinical practice for all specialties including urology shifted to the emergency setting. Proper patient selection needs to be done to avoid infection; however, there is a fine line between postponing surgery and negatively affecting the outcome of the disease to be treated. The rapid integration of telemedicine has helped to keep up outpatient medical care, interdisciplinary communication and education. Nevertheless, surgical education of urological resid...

The Guitar-Maker: Model Education
This issue of Advances in Chronic Kidney Disease is dedicated to the nephrological education of medical learners of all types as well as patients Guest editors Campbell, Sturdivant, and Ullian present a group of authors who yield some answers to the questions each author poses. However, as anticipated, the reader may formulate more questions than answers, and that is not a bad thing because that is how we learn. As medical information and the ways to obtain it increase at rates that are far beyond anyone's capacity to appreciate, much less absorb them, one must be selective, for it is this selectivity that ultimately deter...
