Predicting the probability of deferred radical treatment for localised prostate cancer managed by active surveillance.

abstract：CONTEXT:Use of electronic cigarettes (ECs) is on the rise in most high-income countries. Smoking conventional cigarettes is a known risk factor for urologic malignancy incidence, progression, and mortality, as well as for other urologic health indicators. The potential impact of EC use on urologic health is therefore o...
