“…At 12 months, all four trials reporting MadsenIversen symptom scores [166][167][168]213 reported higher (worse) scores following TUMT (Figure 3, comparison 01:02:03). Overall, the WMD was 1.97 (95% CI 1.27-2.66, p < 0.001).…”

“…Again, there was marked statistical heterogeneity between the three studies. When a random-effects model was applied the direction of effect remained the same but the difference between the groups was no longer statistically significant (WMD 2.26, 95% CI -0.38 to 4.91).At 12 months, all four trials reporting MadsenIversen symptom scores [166][167][168]213 reported higher (worse) scores following TUMT (Figure 3, comparison 01:02:03). Overall, the WMD was 1.97 (95% CI 1.27-2.66, p < 0.001).…”

“…Using a random-effects model did not change this pattern. The cause of heterogeneity is unclear but in the study by d'Ancona and colleagues 166 patients appear to have milder disease than in the other two studies.In total, four studies 166,168,210,213 (n = 306) provided information on the improvement of MadsenIversen scores after surgery (Appendix 8.1, Table 42). Meta-analysis of the four trials showed heterogeneity, with results tending to favour TURP, but the difference was not statistically significant ( Figure 3, comparison 01:02:01: WMD 0.63, 95% CI -0.08 to 1.33, p = 0.08).…”

Microwave thermotherapy techniques are effective alternatives to TURP and alpha-blockers for treating symptomatic BPH for men with no history of urinary retention or previous prostate procedures and prostate volumes between 30 to 100 mL. However, TURP provided greater symptom score and urinary flow improvements and reduced the need for subsequent BPH treatments compared to TUMT. Small sample sizes and differences in study design limit comparison between devices with different designs and energy levels. The effects of symptom duration, patient characteristics, or prostate volume on treatment response are unknown.
