When you can't get a response it's usually because of a money thing. Like hey, we get lots of dollars from companies working the very profitable cancer arena hoodwinking desperate and gullible patients that we will save their life so let's not rattle the cage. The financial conflicts of interest have made healthcare a very dangerous place for patients. For example - big pharma and tech groups sponsor the AUA, meetings, studies journals (including what papers they will accept - so they're not offending and shutting off the money spigot) etc etc. These unethical and immoral financial conflicts of interest are themselves a rotten cancer that absolutely limit our advances in healthcare. Here's a partial list for the PCF of "sponsors" - there are always strings attached - just look at what role they play in the prostate cancer arena.
