To describe the scoring approach, considering interpretability, validity, and use, of a new patient-centered patient reported outcome (PRO), the Urinary Symptom Questionnaire for Neurogenic Bladder-Intermittent Catheter version (USQNB-IC).
To evaluate the therapeutic effects of intradetrusor onabotulinum toxin A (BTX) injections in patients with adult neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (ANLUTD) and medically refractory poorly compliant bladders.
The relationship between maximum voided volumes (MVV) during the night and day is poorly understood. Such measurements are important because they are often used to indicate functional bladder capacity (FBC), a relevant parameter for nocturia.
To validate the Turkish versions of the interstitial cystitis symptom index (ICSI) and interstitial cystitis problem index (ICPI) for use in Turkish speaking patients with bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC).
Given the disputable link between nerve growth factor (NGF) and overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) and the lack of studies on its precursor (proNGF) in OAB, the aim of the study was to identify changes in the urinary levels of NGF and its proteolytic enzymes in aging women with OAB.
Urethral bulking agents (UBA) have traditionally been offered as salvage procedures for recurrent stress urinary incontinence (SUI). We compare the success of UBA in patients that had undergone a previous procedure for SUI (Salvage-UBA) to the SUI surgery naïve (Primary-UBA).
To examine the relationship between education level, cognitive function of patients and the success/ revision rates of artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) implantation in men with post-prostatectomy incontinence (PPI) METHODS: Between January 2010 and March 2018, 163 patients (mean age, 68 ± 6.
Incontinence after prostate treatment (IPT) is an important and common problem for men and can lead to decreased quality of life. The proper evaluation and management of IPT requires both knowledge of the mechanisms for its development and of multiple evolving therapy types.
The effect of different intensities of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) assessed by 2D/3D ultrasound (USG) have not been sufficiently monitored in the literature. The objective of the study will be to evaluate the effect of this intervention by assessing the change in incontinence episode frequency, hiatal area (HA) and hiatal diameter by 2D/3D USG […]
To determine the rate of the urethral stricture (US) and bladder neck contracture (BNC) between patients who undergo Holmium Laser Enucleation of Prostate (HoLEP) surgery with 26Fr vs. 28Fr resectoscope sheaths (RS).
