About

Dr. Minyi Lin is a leading urological researcher whose work centers on the intersection of metabolic health and surgical oncology, with a particular focus on prostate cancer outcomes. Her most cited study, a 2018 meta-analysis titled *Impact of Obesity on Long-Term Urinary Incontinence after Radical Prostatectomy*, has garnered 36 citations and fundamentally reshaped clinical understanding of postoperative recovery. By rigorously synthesizing evidence, Dr. Lin demonstrated that obesity (BMI ≥ 30) is a significant, independent risk factor for persistent urinary incontinence following radical prostatectomy—a finding that has direct implications for preoperative counseling and risk stratification. This landmark contribution challenges surgeons to consider body composition as a critical variable in treatment planning, moving beyond traditional oncologic metrics. Dr. Lin’s work bridges the gap between metabolic epidemiology and surgical precision, highlighting how systemic health factors can profoundly influence functional outcomes. Her research not only advances the field of urologic oncology but also empowers clinicians to adopt more personalized, holistic approaches to patient care. Through her meticulous analysis, Dr. Lin has established herself as a vital voice in the effort to improve quality of life for prostate cancer survivors.
