Numerous studies indicate a decrease in overall survival among cancer patients who have developed thromboembolic complications. The article presents a review of literature on thromboembolic complications in patients with kidney, bladder, and prostate cancer. The analysis of publications indicates a variety of risk factors and heterogeneous frequency of thromboembolism in patients with malignant neoplasms of the genitourinary system. Prevention of thromboembolism is carried out at all stages of treatment: outpatient, after surgery, during chemotherapy, but is accompanied by a fairly high risk of hemorrhagic complications and recurrences. Direct oral anticoagulants are an alternative to low-molecular-weight heparin for prevention of cancer-associated thromboembolism due to their convenience, efficacy and safety for most patients. An important task is to select patients for primary thromboprophylaxis based on stratification of the risk of thromboembolic complications using prognostic scales.

Background and Objectives: Antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrheae threatens the effectiveness of empirical gonorrhoea treatment. Although global surveillance evidence is increasingly available, resistance data are not consistently reported separately for men with urethral or urogenital infection. This review evaluated antibiotic-specific resistance in N. gonorrhoeae isolates from this clinically defined population and examined the geographic and reporting limitations of the available evidence. Materials and Methods: PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and relevant WHO GASP/EGASP resources were searched from inception to [updated search date]. Eligible observational or surveillance studies reported categorical resistance classifications or extractable antibiotic-specific resistant counts and denominators for male urethral or urogenital isolates. Antibiotic-specific proportions were synthesized using random-effects meta-analysis where pooling was considered appropriate. Sparse-event outcomes were additionally evaluated using study-specific estimates and aggregate resistant/tested counts. Certainty of evidence was assessed using the GRADE framework adapted for prevalence outcomes. Results: Six studies met the eligibility criteria, including the 2025 multinational EGASP study. Cefixime resistance was reported in 748 of 13,154 isolates, corresponding to an aggregate proportion of 5.69%; however, the random-effects estimate was unstable because three studies reported no resistant isolates and events were concentrated in two large datasets. Ceftriaxone resistance varied from 0% to 5.17%, with a pooled estimate of 0.32% (95% CI 0.05–2.15; I² = 97.8%). Resistance was high but heterogeneous for ciprofloxacin (71.84%, 95% CI 7.53–98.77; I² = 97.3%) and penicillin (62.47%, 95% CI 36.87–82.58; I² = 98.1%). Spectinomycin resistance was 2.57% (95% CI 1.58–4.16; I² = 0%), while azithromycin resistance was 6.38% (95% CI 4.38–9.21; I² = 94.9%). Certainty of evidence was very low for all outcomes. Conclusions: Evidence specifically reporting resistance in male urethral or urogenital N. gonorrhoeae isolates remains limited and geographically uneven. Contemporary EGASP data demonstrate that ceftriaxone resistance is not uniformly low across surveillance settings. The pooled estimates should be interpreted as exploratory summaries rather than current global prevalence values or an independent basis for treatment selection. Standardized reporting of sex, anatomical site, breakpoints, MIC distributions, and resistant/tested counts is needed to improve future surveillance synthesis.
