Patients who resume smoking after heart transplantation have worse survival and are at higher risk of dying from solid organ cancer. Implementing a smoking cessation plan throughout the post-transplant period is important.

Five databases were searched (December 2019-May 2020). We included both published and pre-print original articles in English that applied AI, machine learning or deep learning in drug repurposing, novel drug discovery, vaccine and antibody development for COVID-19. Out of 31 studies included, 16 studies applied AI for drug repurposing, whereas 10 studies utilized AI for novel drug discovery. Only four studies used AI technology for vaccine development, whereas one study generated stable antibodies against SARS-CoV-2. Approx. 50% of studies exclusively targeted 3CLpro of SARS-CoV-2, and only two studies targeted ACE/TMPSS2 for inhibiting host viral interactions. Around 16% of the identified drugs are in different phases of clinical evaluation against COVID-19. AI has emerged as a promising solution of COVID-19 therapeutics. During this current pandemic, many of the researchers have used AI-based strategies to process large databases in a more customized manner leading to the faster identification of several potential targets, novel/repurposing of drugs and vaccine candidates. A number of these drugs are either approved or are in a late-stage clinical trial and are potentially effective against SARS-CoV2 indicating validity of the methodology. However, as the use of AI-based screening program is currently in budding stage, sole reliance on such algorithms is not advisable at this current point of time and an evidence based approach is warranted to confirm their usefulness against this life-threatening disease.

Robotic assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALRP) following endoscopic resection of the prostate is known to be feasible with good outcomes. However, the literature evidence is limited on the feasibility and outcomes of RALRP following open prostatic surgery. In this study, our aim was to report our experience with RALRP in patients who had undergone trans-vesical adenomectomy of the prostate in the past.
We reviewed our prospectively maintained database of men treated with RALRP at our institution to identify patients with previous history of open suprapubic trans-vesical adenomectomy, between 2016 and 2020. Data were collected on demographic information, interventions, oncological outcomes and follow-up.
Out of 362 patients, four individuals were identified that had previous open suprapubic trans-vesical adenomectomy. The mean age was 71 years with a mean pre-operative prostate specific antigen (PSA) of 11.35 ng/ml, and an average of 10 years after their trans-vesical adenomectomy. The mean console time was 119 min with an average estimated blood loss of 137.5 ml and 75% underwent lymphadenectomy. Post-operatively, all patients were discharged after 1 day with their urinary catheters removed at 7 days post-op. For one of the patients, a urine leak was identified, and his pelvic drain was removed at 5 days instead of 1 day as for the other three patients. Zn-C3 datasheet No other complications were noted within 30 days. The average prostate weight was 54.7 g with all specimens being T3a R0. At 6 weeks follow-up, PSA was undetectable, three patients reported full continence and 1 was using two pads/day.
RALRP following previous open trans-vesical prostatectomy is feasible and safe with excellent oncological outcomes. They are, however, more challenging and cumbersome with increased console time.

The unavailability of effective vaccines or drugs has enforced researchers to hunt for a potential drug to combat this virus. Plant-derived phytocompounds are of applicable interest in the search for novel drugs. Bioflavonoids from Rhus succedanea are already reported to exert antiviral activity against RNA viruses. SARS-CoV-2 Mpro protease plays a vital role in viral replication and therefore can be considered as a promising target for drug development. A computational approach has been employed to search for promising potent bioflavonoids from Rhus succedanea against SARS-CoV-2 Mpro protease. Binding affinities and binding modes between the biflavonoids and Mpro enzyme suggest that all six biflavonoids exhibit possible interaction with the Mpro catalytic site (-19.47 to -27.04 kcal/mol). However, Amentoflavone (-27.04 kcal/mol) and Agathisflavone (-25.87rong binding affinity (-27.0441 kcal/mol) towards Mpro. The binding site properties of SARS-CoV-2-Mpro can be utilized in a novel discovery and lead optimization of the SARS-CoV-2-Mpro inhibitor.
The primary objective was to estimate the incidence of granulomatous prostatitis (GP) in Son Espases University Hospital, a tertiary care hospital, in Palma de Mallorca (Spain). As secondary objectives, presence of concomitant PCa in the biopsy was analyzed, as well as the history of previous BCG instillations, biopsy origin, urinary symptoms, and cardiovascular risk (CV) factors.
A descriptive retrospective study of GP and the aforedescribed variables were carried out from 2010 to 2017.
A total of 3651 histopathological prostate specimens were analyzed, 39 of which were diagnosed with GP (incidence of 1.06%). Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) were present in a 48.7% and previous history of bladder tumor resection (TURBT) was present in 35.9% of the cases. Also, urinary tract infections were equally present. All cases with prior TURBT had intravesical instillations with BCG, although 5 (12.8%) and 4 (10.3%) cases had abnormal rectal examination and elevated PSA levels after instillations, respectively.
