TL;DR: Analysis of several tumor pairs involving a CIS and an invasive cancer provided evidence that the chromosome 9 alteration may in some cases be involved in the progression of CIS to more invasive tumors, in addition to its role in the initiation of T(a) tumors.

TL;DR: A comprehensive transcriptional analysis of 460 early-stage urothelial carcinomas revealed frequent mutations in genes encoding proteins involved in chromatin organization and cytoskeletal functions and suggested the identification of subclasses in NMIBC may offer better prognostication and treatment selection based on subclass assignment.

TL;DR: This meta-analysis confirms that HAL BL cystoscopy significantly improves the detection of bladder tumours leading to a reduction of recurrence at 9-12 mo, and is evident in patients with Ta, T1, CIS, primary, and recurrent cancer.

TL;DR: Somatic instability at microsatellite repeats was detected in 6 of 200 transitional cell carcinomas of the bladder, suggesting that these alterations can occur early in bladder tumorigenesis.

TL;DR: There was a positive correlation between the occurrence of stress incontinence and childbirth in the group as a whole and the tendency to wear nappies or sanitary towels increased with age, but the increase was not statistically significant.
