Abstract Introduction Introduction: Peyronie’s disease (PD) is a fibrosing condition of the tunica albuginea characterized by a palpable plaque with varying impacts on the patient’s erection: curvature, shortening, indentations, hinging, and narrowing. Stepwise intralesional injection of collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) is the only FDA approved medical treatment for PD. We retrospectively reviewed Xiaflex® treated patients for satisfaction with therapy or pursuit of subsequent surgery. Objective Objective: To assess global satisfaction with intralesional Xiaflex based on whether patients subsequently elected surgery. Methods Methods: This is a retrospective review of patients presenting with PD to a single center and managed by a single provider from 2020-2024 with six-month follow-up post-treatment. Patient presentations were recorded in an Institutional Review Board approved database. Data storage and analytics were conducted using REDCap. Results Results: The cohort for this study was 159 men treated with intralesional Xiaflex. 18 of the 159 were excluded from analysis due to ongoing treatment. 48.9% of patients (69/141) were satisfied with CCH outcomes and sought no further therapy. 51.1% of patients (72/141) were not satisfied with their outcomes. Of the patients not satisfied with treatment, 48/72 (66.7%) elected subsequent surgical interventions: 18 penile plications, 8 incision and grafting and 22 inflatable penile prostheses. 51.7% (73/141) of patients completed (8) CCH treatments. Among the 73 men who had a complete set of CCH injections, 24.6% (18/73) elected subsequent surgery. Among the patients who had fewer than 8 treatments 46.9% (30/64) elected surgery following Xiaflex. Conclusions Conclusion: If successful medical management of Peyronie’s disease is defined by men who decline subsequent surgical interventions, Xiaflex® was highly successful 75% (55/73). Patients who have Peyronie’s disease are highly motivated and will pursue surgical interventions following a trial of CCH. Disclosure No

Introduction: Alcohol use is common in the United States. Most studies describe a J-shaped relationship between alcohol consumption and cognitive function: frequent heavy consumption alters brain functions and decreases cognitive performance; regular light and moderate consumption may have protective impact. We are unaware of any reports utilizing longitudinally collected data to derive a cumulative exposure of alcohol use and assess its association with cognitive function. Hypothesis: Cumulative 30-year exposure to alcohol has a J-shaped association with mid-life cognitive function. Methods: We included 3,068 participants aged 18-30 years at the baseline examination (1985-86) and having up to 8 follow-up exams at 2- to 5-year intervals including at 30 years (2015-16). Cumulative “drink-years” exposure to alcohol was estimated at each exam by multiplying the usual number of drinks/day reported by the number of years since last exam, and then summing across exams. We used multivariable adjusted linear regression models to assess the independent associations of number of drink-years with 6 measures of cognitive function studied at Year 30: Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT), Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST), Stroop Test, Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Category Fluency Test, and Letter Fluency Test. We used inverse probability of censoring weighting to account for potential informative censoring. Linear regression models estimated standardized mean test scores for the cumulative alcohol use categories (drink-years: >0 and <15, 15-29.9, 30+). Too few participants were available for assessment of higher categories of use. Results: Compared with never drinking, the 3 categories of cumulative exposure were unassociated with any of the cognitive function measures. Conclusions: Cumulative 30-year alcohol use is not associated with cognitive function in middle-aged adults in the CARDIA study.
