Persistence and Adherence with Mirabegron versus Antimuscarinic Agents in Patients with Overactive Bladder: A Retrospective Observational Study in UK Clinical PracticeC.R. Chapple, J. Nazir, Z. Hakimi, S. Bowditch, F. Fatoye, F. Guelfucci, A. Khemiri, E. Siddiqui,

For chronic conditions such as overactive bladder, long-term adherence is important
to maintain treatment benefit. Persistence with antimuscarinics is a recognised
challenge. This analysis of a UK primary care database demonstrates that
persistence and adherence are significantly greater with mirabegron versus
antimuscarinics.

Qualitative Exploration of the Patient Experience of Underactive BladderA.D. Uren, N. Cotterill, C. Harding, C. Hillary, C. Chapple, M. Klaver, D. Bongaerts, Z. Hakimi, P. Abrams
This study adds to our knowledge of how patients describe the symptoms, signs,
and impact of underactive bladder. A variety of lower urinary tract symptoms were
described which could have a broad impact on quality of life.

Systematic Review of Immune Checkpoint Inhibition in Urological CancersM. Rijnders, R. de Wit, J.L. Boormans, M.P.J. Lolkema, A.A.M. van der Veldt
As second-line treatment, immune checkpoint inhibitors have changed the
perspectives of patients with advanced urothelial and renal cell cancer. Ongoing
studies, also assessing novel combination strategies, may further enhance efficacy
in earlier treatment lines and disease stages of urological cancers.

Contemporary surgical mesh for stress urinary incontinence is appropriate for
adequately assessed and counselled patients, with surgery performed by an
experienced surgeon. Contemporary surgical mesh for pelvic organ prolapse should
be used only in highly selected situations after careful consideration, when no
alternative exists.

Robot-assisted Salvage Lymph Node Dissection for Clinically Recurrent Prostate CancerF. Montorsi, G. Gandaglia, N. Fossati, N. Suardi, C. Pultrone, R. De Groote, Z. Dovey, P. Umari,
A. Gallina, A. Briganti, A. Mottrie
Robot-assisted salvage nodal dissection represents a feasible and effective
technique for the management of patients with nodal recurrence after radical
prostatectomy, where one out of three patients experience biochemical response
after surgery.
