We determined the rate of duplicate research presentations at recent American Urological Association and European Urological Association annual meetings. We cross-referenced all clinical research presentations related to prostate cancer presented at the 2006 American Urological Association and European Urological Association annual meetings with those presented at the corresponding annual meetings in 2005 2006 and 2007 using a defined search strategy based on author names abstract titles study design and objectives. All data abstraction was performed in duplicate by 2 independent reviewers to ensure accuracy. We identified 282 and 312 abstracts on prostate cancer clinical research at the 2006 European Urological Association and American Urological Association annual meetings respectively. The overall duplication rate of American Urological Association abstracts was 19.

Department of Urology Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center New York USA; Department of Urology University of Rochester Rochester New York; Department of Urology University of Texas Southwestern Dallas; Department of Urology Baylor College of Medicine Department of Medicine Section of Medical ncology Texas ncology and the Baylor College of Medicine Houston Texas. Department of Urology Johns Hopkins Hospital Baltimore Maryland. We hypothesized that in patients with T2N0 stage disease at transurethral bladder tumor resection a lower residual cancer stage (P1N0 or less) at radical cystectomy may correlate with improved outcomes relative to those with residual P2N0 disease. We analyzed 208 patients with T2N0 stage disease at transurethral bladder tumor resection whose tumors were organ confined at radical cystectomy (P2 or lower pN0). None received perioperative chemotherapy. Kaplan-Meier as well as univariable and multivariable Cox regression models addressed the effect of residual pT stage at radical cystectomy on recurrence and cancer specific mortality rates.
