Abstract
New research on Surgery - Prostatectomy is the subject of a report. According to news reporting out of Milan, Italy, by NewsRx editors, research stated, “The association between age at surgery and urinary continence (UC) recovery after Retzius-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP) is not well established. We addressed this knowledge gap, relying on a large series of 1,417 patients treated with RS-RARP at a high-volume centre between 2010 and 2021.” Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the Department of Urology, “Multivariable logistic models, as well as LOESS plot functions were performed. The probability of immediate, as well as 12-month UC-recovery progressively declined with increasing age at surgery, and per 5-years age at surgery increase reached the independent predictor status for both immediate and 12-month UC-recovery.” According to the news editors, the research concluded: “These findings may significantly improve the quality of patient counseling regarding RS-RARP.” This research has been peer-reviewed.
