These unique advantages enable hydrophobic MOFs to be used as a highly versatile platform for exploring multifunctional porous materials. Classic representative examples of each category are discussed in terms of coordination structures, types of hydrophobic design, and potential microelectronic applications. Lastly, a summary and outlook as concluding remarks in this field are presented. We envision that future research in the area of hydrophobic MOFs promise to provide important breakthroughs in microelectronics applications. Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) can recur despite transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT) that clears macroscopic disease, partly from re-implantation of exfoliated cells. Immediate instillation of intravesical chemotherapy (IC) can reduce recurrence, is guideline-recommended but is under-utilized. Continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) immediately post-TURBT is postulated to prevent re-implantation, and may provide a simple, cheap and practical alternative. We undertook a systematic review to assess the effect of CBI on NMIBC recurrence. Following PRISMA guidelines, relevant publications were identified by online search of databases, including Ovid Medline and EMBASE (1980-2019). All published prospective randomized controlled trials comparing CBI post-TURBT to a control group were included. The primary end-point was recurrence. Our search yielded 514 studies, of which six met inclusion criteria. Two studies (935 participants), albeit without peer-reviewed publication, comparing CBI to no CBI both showed a reduction in recurrence at 2 years. Four publications from three trials (331 participants) compared CBI to IC, showing similar recurrence rates at 1 year (odds ratio 1.29, 95% confidence interval 0.78-2.13) but a lower risk of adverse ev
