Background and objective

Recent advances have led to the introduction of multiple combination treatments for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), but their comparative efficacy and toxicity remain uncertain owing to the absence of head-to-head comparisons. We evaluated the efficacy and safety profile of darolutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in comparison to other treatments.

Methods

A systematic search was conducted in the Cochrane Library up to September 30, 2024 in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Hazard ratios (HRs) and confidence intervals (CIs) for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were extracted. Odds ratios (ORs) for treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were calculated from the events reported.

Key findings and limitations

Eleven trials involving 11 389 patients were included. Darolutamide triplet therapy was associated with the highest overall PFS (HR 0.24, 95% CI 0.20–0.29) and OS (HR 0.54, 95% CI 0.44–0.66). The highest PFS in low-volume disease was observed with enzalutamide (HR 0.29, 95% CI 0.21–0.38) and darolutamide (HR 0.30, 95% CI 0.15–0.60). All androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) had higher toxicity than ADT, except for darolutamide (OR 0.99, 95% CI 0.71–1.39). In comparison to darolutamide, enzalutamide (OR 2.03, 95% CI 1.08–3.80) and abiraterone (OR 3.18, 95% CI 1.74–5.80) were associated with higher risk of hypertension. Enzalutamide was associated with a higher risk of fatigue (OR 3.22, 95% CI 1.28–8.07). Limited direct comparisons between treatments may affect our conclusions regarding relative efficacy.

Conclusions and clinical implications

Our findings support the role of darolutamide as an effective and well-tolerated ARPI for mHSPC, particularly in low-volume metachronous disease and comorbidity-limited cases. These results may assist clinicians in planning personalized treatment strategies that balance efficacy and safety.

Patient summary

We compared different medical treatment options for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, with a special focus on a drug called darolutamide. Darolutamide is well tolerated and is effective, particularly in patients with a low volume of metastasis and patients with other health conditions that may limit their treatment options.
背景和目的最近的进展导致了转移性激素敏感性前列腺癌(mHSPC)的多种联合治疗的引入,但由于缺乏头对头的比较,它们的比较疗效和毒性仍然不确定。我们评估了darolutamide联合雄激素剥夺疗法(ADT)与其他治疗方法的疗效和安全性。方法按照系统评价和meta分析的首选报告项目指南,在Cochrane图书馆进行系统检索,检索时间截止到2024年9月30日。提取无进展生存期(PFS)和总生存期(OS)的风险比(hr)和置信区间(CIs)。治疗中出现的不良事件(teae)的优势比(ORs)根据报道的事件计算。主要发现和局限性纳入了涉及11389例患者的11项even试验。达罗卢胺三联疗法与最高的总PFS (HR 0.24, 95% CI 0.20-0.29)和OS (HR 0.54, 95% CI 0.44-0.66)相关。小体积疾病的PFS最高的是恩杂鲁胺(HR 0.29, 95% CI 0.21-0.38)和达鲁胺(HR 0.30, 95% CI 0.15-0.60)。除darolutamide外,所有雄激素受体途径抑制剂(arpi)的毒性均高于ADT (OR 0.99, 95% CI 0.71-1.39)。与达洛鲁胺相比,恩杂鲁胺(OR 2.03, 95% CI 1.08-3.80)和阿比特龙(OR 3.18, 95% CI 1.74-5.80)与高血压的高风险相关。Enzalutamide与较高的疲劳风险相关(OR 3.22, 95% CI 1.28-8.07)。有限的治疗之间的直接比较可能会影响我们关于相对疗效的结论。研究结果支持darolutamide作为mHSPC有效且耐受性良好的ARPI的作用,特别是在小容量异时性疾病和合并症有限的病例中。这些结果可以帮助临床医生制定平衡疗效和安全性的个性化治疗策略。患者总结:我们比较了转移性激素敏感前列腺癌的不同治疗方案,特别关注了一种叫做达罗卢胺的药物。Darolutamide耐受性良好且有效,特别是对于转移量小的患者和其他可能限制其治疗选择的健康状况的患者。

Background and objective

The role of the central nervous system (CNS) in overactive bladder (OAB) is not completely understood. Our aim was to investigate the association between alterations in the brain perivascular network and OAB, and to identify potential biomarkers for future intervention trials.

Methods

This prospective study included 131 patients with OAB and 119 healthy individuals matched for age, sex, and education. High-resolution 3.0-T magnetic resonance imaging was used to measure brain glymphatic system (BGS) markers, including white matter (WM) and subcortical perivascular space (PVS) characteristics, the free water (FW) fraction, the Analysis Along the Perivascular Space index, and the choroid plexus volume. Spearman and partial correlation analyses were used to examine relationships between imaging results and clinical data. Linear regression and partial correlation analyses for 6-mo follow-up data were conducted to assess longitudinal associations between changes in BGS parameters and OAB symptom progression.

Key findings and limitations

Patients with OAB exhibited notable BGS alterations, among which the WM-PVS count and FW fraction were strongly associated with clinical questionnaire scores. At 6-mo follow-up, progression of OAB symptoms was linked to a significant increase in brain FW content. However, we did not systematically evaluate how bladder function is related to changes in specific brain regions.

Conclusions and clinical implications

This study reveals for the first time an association between BGS dysfunction and OAB symptom severity. Our findings reinforce the role of the CNS in contributing to OAB and highlight potential therapeutic targets.

Patient summary

We used MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) brain scans and questionnaires on overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms to look at possible links between brain changes and OAB. Our results suggest that changes within the brain network may be a central mechanism in OAB. This new discovery may help in the development of new treatments for patients with OAB.
背景与目的中枢神经系统(CNS)在膀胱过动症(OAB)中的作用尚不完全清楚。我们的目的是研究脑血管周围网络改变与OAB之间的关系,并为未来的干预试验确定潜在的生物标志物。方法本前瞻性研究纳入131例OAB患者和119例年龄、性别和教育程度相匹配的健康人。采用高分辨率3.0 t磁共振成像测量脑淋巴系统(BGS)标志物,包括白质(WM)和皮层下血管周围空间(PVS)特征、游离水(FW)分数、沿血管周围空间分析指数、脉络膜丛体积。使用Spearman和部分相关分析来检查影像学结果与临床资料之间的关系。对6个月随访数据进行线性回归和偏相关分析,以评估BGS参数变化与OAB症状进展之间的纵向关联。OAB患者表现出显著的BGS改变,其中WM-PVS计数和FW分数与临床问卷得分密切相关。在6个月的随访中,OAB症状的进展与脑FW含量的显著增加有关。然而,我们没有系统地评估膀胱功能如何与特定大脑区域的变化相关。结论和临床意义本研究首次揭示了BGS功能障碍与OAB症状严重程度之间的关联。我们的发现强化了中枢神经系统在OAB中的作用,并强调了潜在的治疗靶点。我们使用MRI(磁共振成像)脑部扫描和对膀胱过动症(OAB)症状的问卷调查来研究大脑变化与OAB之间的可能联系。我们的研究结果表明,大脑网络的变化可能是OAB的核心机制。这一新发现可能有助于开发针对OAB患者的新疗法。

Background and objective

Lynch syndrome (LS) increases the risk of gastrointestinal, endometrial, and other cancers. Recent data suggest that LS also increases the risk of prostate cancer (PC). Our study aims to characterize the incidence and the clinical and molecular features of PC in LS.

Methods

Adult males with LS were identified from an institutional genetic testing registry. PC diagnoses were identified, and tumor tissue was assessed for DNA mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR) by immunohistochemistry.

Key findings and limitations

Among 235 adult males with LS, 35 were diagnosed with PC at a median age of 60 yr (interquartile range: 58–69.5). By age 75 yr, the cumulative incidence of any PC and clinically significant PC was 38% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 27–50%) and 26% (95% CI: 16–37%), respectively. MMR deficiency was observed in 75% of tumors from MSH2/EPCAM pathogenic variant (PV) carriers and in 20% from MSH6 PV carriers; no dMMR tumors were observed in MLH1 or PMS2 PV carriers. The majority (71%) of patients with unfavorable intermediate- or higher-risk disease had dMMR tumors, while none with lower-risk disease had dMMR tumors (p < 0.001). LS patients with a family history of PC were three times more likely to develop the disease (26% vs 10%, odds ratio 3.00, p < 0.001) than those without a family history. This study was limited by the number of cases at one institution.

Conclusions and clinical implications

MMR-deficient PC was significantly associated with higher-risk clinicopathological features, suggesting that MMR testing should be considered for LS patients with PC to help inform clinical management. Additionally, these data support special consideration of PC screening among LS patients with MSH2, EPCAM, or MSH6 PV, and/or a family history of PC.

Patient summary

In this study, we looked at the incidence and characteristics of prostate cancer that develops among individuals with Lynch syndrome. We found that individuals with Lynch syndrome have an elevated risk of developing prostate cancer, but this risk varied by Lynch syndrome gene and family history. This information will help guide targeted prostate cancer screening and management for individuals with Lynch syndrome.
背景和目的lynch综合征(LS)可增加胃肠道、子宫内膜和其他癌症的风险。最近的数据表明,LS还会增加患前列腺癌(PC)的风险。我们的研究旨在了解LS中PC的发病率及临床和分子特征。方法从机构基因检测登记中鉴定成年男性LS患者。确定PC诊断,并通过免疫组织化学评估肿瘤组织的DNA错配修复缺陷(dMMR)。主要发现和局限性:在235名患有LS的成年男性中,35名被诊断为PC,中位年龄为60岁(四分位数范围:58-69.5)。到75岁时,任何PC和临床显著PC的累积发病率分别为38%(95%可信区间[CI]: 27-50%)和26% (95% CI: 16-37%)。MMR缺陷在MSH2/EPCAM致病变异(PV)携带者的肿瘤中占75%,在MSH6 PV携带者中占20%;MLH1和PMS2 PV携带者未见dMMR肿瘤。大多数(71%)有不良中危或高危疾病的患者有dMMR肿瘤,而没有低危疾病的患者有dMMR肿瘤(p < 0.001)。有PC家族史的LS患者患此病的可能性是无家族史患者的三倍(26% vs 10%,优势比3.00,p < 0.001)。本研究受限于同一机构的病例数量。结论及临床意义smmr缺陷PC与高风险临床病理特征显著相关,提示LS合并PC患者应考虑MMR检测,以帮助临床管理。此外,这些数据支持在患有MSH2、EPCAM或MSH6 PV和/或有PC家族史的LS患者中进行PC筛查的特殊考虑。在这项研究中,我们观察了Lynch综合征患者中前列腺癌的发病率和特征。我们发现患有Lynch综合征的个体患前列腺癌的风险较高,但这种风险因Lynch综合征基因和家族史而异。这些信息将有助于指导有针对性的前列腺癌筛查和管理个人与林奇综合征。

Background and objective

Midurethral sling (MUS) use for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) has declined because of controversies. However, there is little evidence on the long-term prevalence of MUS reoperation. The aim of this study was to examine long-term removal and reoperation rates among women with MUS.

Methods

This national retrospective cohort study included all female patients aged ≥18 yr with a first MUS insertion for SUI in all French public hospitals and private practices between January 1, 2013, and September 30, 2022. Patients were followed until January 1, 2023. The primary outcome was the MUS removal rate. Secondary outcomes were new MUS insertion and any other surgery for SUI. Cox regression models were used to assess potential factors associated with MUS removal.

Key findings and limitations

The study included 217 326 women with a first MUS insertion. There were 5851 MUS removals and 9521 new MUS insertions. Most removals occurred within the first year (58%). The MUS removal rate was 2.7% at 10 yr. There were fewer removals after transoboturator insertion than after retropubic insertion. Alcohol consumption, smoking, and obesity were associated with MUS reoperation. At 10 yr, the rate of new MUS insertions was 4.5% and the rate of any other surgeries was 2.8%.

Conclusions and clinical implications

These findings may help in counseling patients on decision-making for SUI treatment.

Patient summary

One treatment option for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women is insertion of a mesh sling. We looked at the rates of sling removal and reoperation among women treated for SUI in the French population. We found that after 10 years, only 2.7% of cases needed sling removal, 4.5% needed a new sling inserted without removal of the previous sling, and 2.8% needed another type of surgery. These results will help patients in choosing the correct treatment for SUI.
背景与目的尿道悬吊带(MUS)在压力性尿失禁(SUI)治疗中的应用因争议而减少。然而,很少有证据表明MUS再手术的长期患病率。本研究的目的是研究MUS妇女的长期切除和再手术率。方法:这项全国性回顾性队列研究纳入了2013年1月1日至2022年9月30日期间在法国所有公立医院和私人诊所首次为SUI插入MUS的所有年龄≥18岁的女性患者。患者随访至2023年1月1日。主要观察指标为MUS去除率。次要结果是新的MUS插入和SUI的任何其他手术。Cox回归模型用于评估与MUS去除相关的潜在因素。主要发现和局限性该研究包括217326名首次植入MUS的女性。有5851个MUS移除和9521个新MUS插入。大多数切除发生在第一年内(58%)。10年时,MUS的移除率为2.7%。置入经旋骨机后的移除率比置入耻骨后的要少。饮酒、吸烟和肥胖与MUS再手术相关。10年时,新植入MUS的比率为4.5%,其他手术的比率为2.8%。结论和临床意义这些发现可能有助于为SUI患者的治疗决策提供咨询。患者总结:女性压力性尿失禁(SUI)的一种治疗选择是插入网状吊带。我们观察了法国人群中接受SUI治疗的女性吊带拆除和再手术的比率。我们发现,10年后,只有2.7%的病例需要拆除吊带,4.5%的病例需要在不拆除旧吊带的情况下插入新吊带,2.8%的病例需要另一种手术。这些结果将有助于患者选择正确的SUI治疗方法。

Background and objective

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) before radical cystectomy improves outcomes in muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), but its value before trimodality therapy (TMT; maximal transurethral resection of the bladder tumor plus concurrent chemoradiation) is uncertain. This review aims to evaluate whether the addition of NACT to TMT is associated with improved survival in patients with MIBC.

Methods

We systematically searched the MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science databases (February 2025). Eligible studies reported adjusted estimates for overall (OS), cancer-specific (CSS), or disease-free (DFS)/recurrence-free survival in patients undergoing TMT, comparing those who received versus those who did not receive NACT. Random-effect meta-analyses pooled multivariable hazard ratios (HRs). The risk of bias was assessed with ROBINS-I (PROSPERO registration: CRD420251120157).

Key findings and limitations

Fourteen studies comprising 4112 patients met the inclusion criteria. However, only two to three studies contributed adjusted HRs for each oncological outcome regarding the use of NACT or the response to NACT. Gemcitabine-cisplatin was the most common NACT regimen (reported in ten studies). Compared with no NACT, NACT was not associated with a statistically significant improvement in OS (HR 0.93, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.78–1.12, p = 0.40; three studies, n = 3500) or CSS (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.51–1.12; p = 0.16; two studies, n = 934). Among patients who received NACT, clinical/pathological response was associated with better outcomes (OS: HR 0.26, 95% CI 0.08–0.86, p = 0.03; two studies, n = 74; DFS: HR 0.42, 95% CI 0.25–0.70, p < 0.001; two studies, n = 116). Overall certainty is limited by nonrandomized design, heterogeneity in patient selection, TMT protocols and response definitions, and the modest number of adjusted studies.

Conclusions and clinical implications

Across adjusted observational data, addition of NACT before TMT was not associated with a survival benefit. However, patients who respond to NACT experience a substantially better prognosis. Prospective trials testing modern neoadjuvant strategies—particularly immunotherapy- and targeted therapy-based regimens—within the standardized TMT protocols are warranted.

Patient summary

We reviewed studies in which chemotherapy was given before a bladder-sparing approach, called trimodality therapy (tumor removal plus chemoradiation). Overall, this treatment approach did not improve survival, although patients who responded to the pretreatment did better. Newer drugs, including immunotherapy, should be tested in this setting.
背景与目的根治性膀胱切除术前的辅助化疗(NACT)可改善肌肉浸润性膀胱癌(MIBC)的预后,但其在三段式治疗(TMT,最大经尿道膀胱肿瘤切除加同步放化疗)前的价值尚不确定。本综述旨在评估在TMT中加入NACT是否与改善MIBC患者的生存有关。方法系统检索MEDLINE、Embase和Web of Science数据库(2025年2月)。符合条件的研究报告了接受TMT患者的总体(OS)、癌症特异性(CSS)或无病(DFS)/无复发生存率的调整估计值,比较了接受与未接受NACT的患者。随机效应荟萃分析汇集了多变量风险比(hr)。使用ROBINS-I (PROSPERO注册号:CRD420251120157)评估偏倚风险。主要发现和局限性包括4112例患者的14项研究符合纳入标准。然而,只有两到三个研究提供了关于使用NACT或对NACT反应的每种肿瘤结果的调整hr。吉西他滨-顺铂是最常见的NACT方案(有10项研究报道)。与无NACT相比,NACT与OS (HR 0.93, 95%可信区间[CI] 0.78-1.12, p = 0.40; 3项研究,n = 3500)或CSS (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.51-1.12, p = 0.16; 2项研究,n = 934)改善无统计学意义。在接受NACT治疗的患者中,临床/病理反应与较好的预后相关(OS: HR 0.26, 95% CI 0.08-0.86, p = 0.03; 2项研究,n = 74; DFS: HR 0.42, 95% CI 0.25-0.70, p < 0.001; 2项研究,n = 116)。总体确定性受到非随机设计、患者选择的异质性、TMT方案和反应定义以及调整研究数量有限的限制。结论和临床意义通过调整后的观察数据,TMT前添加NACT与生存获益无关。然而,对NACT有反应的患者预后要好得多。在标准化的TMT方案中,对现代新辅助策略(特别是免疫治疗和靶向治疗方案)进行前瞻性试验是有必要的。患者总结:我们回顾了在保留膀胱入路之前给予化疗的研究,称为三段式治疗(肿瘤切除加放化疗)。总的来说,这种治疗方法并没有提高生存率,尽管对预处理有反应的患者生存率更高。较新的药物,包括免疫疗法,应该在这种情况下进行测试。

Background and objective

Bladder cancer is the sixth most common cancer among men and is expensive to manage. We independently developed three microsimulation models that describe its natural history and explain epidemiological trends. We projected bladder cancer burden in the USA through 2040 to inform workforce planning.

Methods

We calibrated the models to the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program incidence data and standardized key inputs. For White men, the highest-incidence subgroup, the models inferred unobservable epidemiological metrics, including lifetime risks by birth cohort and ages of the key events in the natural history. We simulated individual life histories under calibrated parameter sets and summarized the outcomes as yearly rates and counts.

Key findings and limitations

Each model’s predictions reproduced SEER age- and stage-specific incidence data. Across models, the lifetime risk of bladder cancer grew from approximately 1.5–2.4% in the 1910 to 3.1–4.4% in the 2010 birth cohorts, consistent with longevity and smoking exposure patterns. Of the cancer cases, 75% instantiate after ages 61–64 yr. The median model durations from when a cancer is screen detectable to its clinical manifestation were 2.1–3.3 yr, with a wide range across individuals. Through 2040, the incidence standardized to the 2000 US population declined by 0.4–0.6%/yr (consistent with the declining smoking rates, the most important environmental risk factor), but the annual incidence and new cases increased by 1.5–1.8%/yr (because the baby boomer population is living longer). Modeling supplements incomplete data with assumptions, but similar findings across independent models suggest some robustness to assumptions.

Conclusions and clinical implications

Projected cohort longevity and smoking patterns imply an increased disease burden in the future, which may benefit from commensurate increased research and resources. From the inferred natural history, we speculate a theoretical opportunity for screening, which should be investigated with dedicated modeling and empirical studies.

Patient summary

Three computer simulation models predicted the future incidence of bladder cancer burden in White men, in whom this cancer is most common. The models found that although the future incidence of bladder cancer would decrease slightly over time (consistent with the declining smoking rates, the most important environmental risk factor), the overall disease burden increased because the baby boomer population is living longer.
背景与目的膀胱癌是男性第六大常见癌症,治疗费用昂贵。我们独立开发了三个描述其自然历史和解释流行病学趋势的微观模拟模型。我们预测到2040年美国的膀胱癌负担,为劳动力规划提供信息。方法根据监测、流行病学和最终结果(SEER)项目的发病率数据对模型进行校准,并对关键输入进行标准化。对于白人男性,发病率最高的亚组,模型推断了不可观察的流行病学指标,包括出生队列的终生风险和自然历史中关键事件的年龄。我们在校准参数集下模拟个人生活史,并将结果总结为年率和计数。主要发现和局限性search模型的预测再现了SEER年龄和阶段特异性发病率数据。在所有模型中,膀胱癌的终生风险从1910年的约1.5-2.4%增加到2010年出生队列的3.1-4.4%,与寿命和吸烟暴露模式一致。在癌症病例中,75%的病例发生在61-64岁之后。从筛查到癌症到临床表现的中位模型持续时间为2.1-3.3年,个体之间的差异很大。到2040年,以2000年美国人口为标准的发病率下降了0.4-0.6% /年(与吸烟率下降一致,这是最重要的环境风险因素),但年发病率和新病例增加了1.5-1.8% /年(因为婴儿潮一代的人口寿命更长)。建模用假设补充了不完整的数据,但独立模型的类似发现表明,假设具有一定的稳健性。结论和临床意义预测的队列寿命和吸烟模式意味着未来疾病负担的增加,这可能受益于相应增加的研究和资源。根据推断的自然历史,我们推测了筛选的理论机会,应该通过专门的建模和实证研究进行调查。三种计算机模拟模型预测了白人男性膀胱癌负担的未来发病率,在白人男性中膀胱癌是最常见的。这些模型发现,尽管未来膀胱癌的发病率会随着时间的推移而略有下降(与吸烟率下降一致,吸烟率是最重要的环境风险因素),但由于婴儿潮一代的人口寿命更长,总体疾病负担增加了。

Background and objective

Fournier’s gangrene (FG) is a life-threatening bacterial infection. Unfortunately, outcomes have not improved in recent years mainly due to the fact that robust research is challenging in this very rare disease. Consequently, we conducted an umbrella review regarding the standard of care for FG to provide best evidence for clinicians and identify research gaps to plan high-quality studies.

Methods

The recommendations provided in the Cochrane Handbook of Systematic Reviews and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines were followed. The full review protocol was pre-registered and is available at PROSPERO (CRD 42023489596).

Key findings and limitations

The primary literature search yielded 3366 references. Finally, we were able to include seven systematic reviews including two meta-analyses. Up to 40% of patients may initially lack cutaneous signs, risking a diagnostic delay and progression to high-mortality disease. Diabetes mellitus emerged as the most prevalent comorbidity across the reviews (32–66%) and was most frequent among nonsurvivors. The management of FG is consistently described as a multimodal emergency, centered on three core interventions: early surgical debridement, empiric broad-spectrum antibiotics, and intensive supportive care. Adjunct interventions need further evaluation. Despite advances in multimodal care, FG carries high mortality and morbidity. There is only moderate confidence mainly due to the risk of bias from the individual studies being included in the reviews.

Conclusions and clinical implications

Across the seven reviews, FG remains a life-threatening condition with substantial mortality. Further comprehensive research is needed desperately; a prospective registry might be suitable for managing this rare disease.

Patient summary

We conducted an umbrella review, a review including only systematic reviews and meta-analyses, about the standard of care for Fournier’s gangrene (FG), which is a life-threatening and rare bacterial infection, and the clinical outcomes have not improved in recent years. In summary, FG is consistently described as a multimodal emergency, centered on three core interventions: early surgical debridement, empiric broad-spectrum antibiotics, and intensive supportive care; however, despite advances in care, FG is still associated with high mortality and morbidity. Consequently, further robust research is needed.
背景与目的富尼耶坏疽(fournier’s gangrene, FG)是一种危及生命的细菌感染。不幸的是,近年来的结果并没有改善,主要是因为在这种非常罕见的疾病中进行强有力的研究是具有挑战性的。因此,我们对FG的护理标准进行了全面回顾,为临床医生提供最佳证据,并确定研究差距,以计划高质量的研究。方法采用Cochrane系统评价手册、系统评价首选报告项目和meta分析指南中的建议。完整的审查方案已预先注册,可在PROSPERO (CRD 42023489596)获得。主要发现和局限性主要文献检索得到3366篇参考文献。最后,我们纳入了七个系统综述,包括两个荟萃分析。高达40%的患者最初可能没有皮肤体征,有可能导致诊断延迟和发展为高死亡率疾病。在所有综述中,糖尿病是最普遍的合并症(32-66%),在非幸存者中最常见。FG的管理一直被描述为一种多模式紧急情况,以三个核心干预措施为中心:早期手术清创、经验性广谱抗生素和强化支持性护理。辅助干预措施需要进一步评估。尽管在多式联运医疗方面取得了进展,但FG的死亡率和发病率都很高。只有中等可信度,主要是由于纳入综述的个别研究存在偏倚风险。结论和临床意义在七篇综述中,FG仍然是一种危及生命的疾病,死亡率很高。迫切需要进一步的全面研究;前瞻性登记可能适合管理这种罕见疾病。富尼耶坏疽(Fournier’s gangrene, FG)是一种危及生命的罕见细菌感染,我们进行了一项总括性综述,仅包括系统综述和荟萃分析,该综述对其治疗标准进行了研究,近年来临床结果没有改善。总之,FG一直被描述为一种多模式紧急情况,以三个核心干预措施为中心:早期手术清创、经验性广谱抗生素和强化支持性护理;然而,尽管在护理方面取得了进展,FG仍然与高死亡率和发病率有关。因此,需要进一步的有力研究。
