The width of the spared neurovascular bundle (NVB) is an important indicator of postoperative sexual function after robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy for prostate cancer, a recent study has found. These findings point to NVB as an easy intraoperative marker for assessing postoperative outcomes.

Acid suppression drugs counteract EGFR-TKIs for NSCLC treatment
Acid suppression (AS) medications, such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and histamine type-2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs), weaken the efficacy of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), resulting in worse survival outcomes, according to a recent Singapore meta-analysis.
