Do testosterone boosters work? There are tons of supplements claimed to boost testosterone levels. But evidence for them is poor, and most do not, in fact, seem to work. Exceptions are HMB, which adds ~70ng/dL and Betaine, which seems to double it in some possibly-fake studies.

Lengthening corporoplasty in Peyronie’s disease: are we doing too much for too little? In our recent study, satisfaction was low (39–65%), length gain minimal ( 0.5 cm), and ED high (~60%). Should we consider early penile prosthesis in select cases? pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4054…

To @VickersBiostats , The concerns that @declangmurphy made are entirely valid. Your study is not a routine RCT but rather a cluster randomized trial that means instead of randomizing individual patients, you randomized groups of surgeons. This inherently increases the risk of bias, and their skepticism regarding potential confounding is, in my opinion, completely valid. Secondly, your study did not clearly pre-register its outcomes on ClinicalTrials.gov. In your initial analysis, the BCR was not statistically significant (P > 0.05), yet it is unclear why you proceeded with a post hoc analysis, in different time, focusing on metastasis that is a secondary outcome that was not driven by a pre-specified hypothesis. This is not fair and reinforces the suspicion that you may have cherry-picked data after seeing the results and I believe such skepticism in this video to your study is entirely valid. We hope you can think this is our advices to you, and please don’t do it again.

Interesting that you accuse me of malfeasance based on a fairly routine analysis of an RCT but stand by folks who engage in the most egregious cherry picking of data to make absurd claims about the harms of LND.

youtube.com/watch?v=cStGuiA1… One year later another must see episode of @gu_onc, @Tilki_De gives an excellent insight on the most controversial change on PCa guidelines: no LND! Just got one doubt PET-PSMA staging for intermediate-unfav or just ISUP 3? @declangmurphy @RenuEapen

TL:DR - Management of localized prostate cancer is never urgent. Get a second opinion!

Not every surgery is glamorous. Last night, I removed a urinary artificial sphincter that had been eroded for 2 years. The patient relied on a SP tube all this time. The device was fully calcified, surrounded by intense inflammation. How would you have approached this case?🤔

Excelent episode! Glad to hear that there will be a podcast sponsored by Rigicon, I believe it will be the first time GU Cast will address how to manage some of the long-term complications of treating prostate cancer!
