This study aims to investigate the efficacy of transcutaneous tibial nerve home stimulation for overactive bladder (OAB) in women with Parkinson’s disease (PD). The current study is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial.
This study evaluated whether one (or more) of three doses of onabotulinumtoxinA were safe and effective to treat neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) in children. This was a 48-week prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind study in children (aged 5-17 years) with NDO and urinary incontinence (UI) receiving one onabotulinumtoxinA treatment (50, 100, or 200 U; not to exceed 6 U/kg).
Aim: to analyze the prevalence of nocturia and its possible neuro-urological correlations in patients with a history of acquired brain injury (ABI). Methods: a single-centre population-based prospective study involving outpatients who were previously admitted to our Rehabilitation Hospital for acute ABI ≥ 18 months and ≤2 years prior.
Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a chronic debilitating illness characterized by urinary frequency, urgency, and pelvic pain. IC/BPS adversely affects the sexual well-being of the patients.
To compare the outcomes of bidirectional barbed suture and continuous poliglecaprone suture for urethrovesical anastomosis (UVA) during laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP). Single-needle poliglecaprone suture was used for UVA in Group 1 (n=27), and double-needle bidirectional barbed suture was used for UVA (n=27) in Group 2.
The study evaluated the safety and advantages of no using urinary catheters (UCs) during the perioperative period in patients undergoing spontaneous pneumothorax surgery. Forty-one patients aged 30 years or younger who underwent spontaneous pneumothorax surgery at our hospital between January 2018 and March 2020 were screened.
Oxidative stress is one of the underlying causes of male infertility. Medicinal plants have many benefits for infertility treatment in men. In the present study, we evaluated in vitro effects of Capparis spinosa leaf extract on human sperm function, DNA fragmentation, and oxidative stress.
Prostatitis is the most commonly diagnosed disease in men younger than 50 years and accounts for about 8% of all urologists’ consultations. After evaluating clinical trials and demonstrating the efficacy of chronic non-bacterial prostatitis treatment, it remains of clinical importance to continue studies on the use of low-energy extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) in men.
The definition and the treatment of male urinary tract infections (UTIs) are imprecise. This study aims to determine the frequency of male UTIs in consultations of general practice, the diagnostic approach and the prescribed treatments.
Introduction Low-intensity shockwave therapy (LISWT) may improve erectile function in patients with mild to moderate erectile dysfunction (ED). Currently there is a paucity of research and prospective data on the utilization of LISWT in patients with ED.
