To review the frequency of adverse events reported with nitrofurantoin (NF) in perimenopausal and menopausal women on prolonged daily prophylaxis in an outpatient setting. Electronic medical records of women aged 50-95 prescribed NF by 2 primary urology providers for at least 3 consecutive months from 2006 to 2018 were retrospectively reviewed.
This study aimed to assess the exposure and knowledge of urology residents in the management of urethral stricture (US) and to determine if they would be able to perform urethroplasty after graduation and whether urethroplasty should be included as a competency in the training program.
Injection of urethral bulking agents is a low-risk, minimally invasive surgical procedure to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI). In this study, we developed a promising injectable bulking agent comprising extracellular matrix fragments of adipose-derived stem cell sheets (ADSC ECM) and investigated its effectiveness in urethral bulking therapy.
The accurate, rapid diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women can profoundly improve their sexual and psychosocial life. In this study, the diagnostic power of SUI was assessed by transperineal ultrasound.
Overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) is defined as urinary urgency, usually accompanied by frequency and nocturia, with or without urgency incontinence, in the absence of urinary tract infection or other obvious pathology.
Augmentation enterocystoplasty (AEC) is a surgical procedure in which the bladder is enlarged using an intestinal segment in patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction who fail to achieve satisfactory results with all conservative treatments.
To evaluate the practical relevance of changes in serum and urinary neurotrophins levels in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) after intradetrusor injections of botulinum toxin A (BoNTA).
Individuals with SCI frequently utilize urgent and emergent medical care. We hypothesized that urologic causes are a primary driver of hospitalizations/ER visits in a contemporary SCI cohort. The Neurogenic Bladder Research Group SCI registry is a prospective cohort study, evaluating neurogenic bladder-related quality of life after traumatic SCI.
