Prevalence and outcome of asymptomatic bacteriuria in early pregnancy [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Bacteriuria is a major risk factor for developing symptomatic urinary tract infection which is associated with significant maternal and fetal risks. Various studies have put a prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria between 2-10% in pregnancy.

An age-of-infection model with both symptomatic and asymptomatic infections [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
We formulate a general age-of-infection epidemic model with two pathways: the symptomatic infections and the asymptomatic infections. We then calculate the basic reproduction number $\mathcal{R}_0$ and establish the final size relation. It is shown that the ratio of accumulated counts of symptomatic patients and asymptomatic patients is determined by ...

On the Role of Asymptomatic Carriers in Epidemic Spread Processes [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
We present an epidemiological compartment model, SAIR(S), that explicitly captures the dynamics of asymptomatic infected individuals in an epidemic spread process. We first present a group model and then discuss networked versions. We provide an investigation of equilibria and stability properties for these models, and present simulation results ...

SEIAR model with asymptomatic cohort and consequences to efficiency of quarantine government measures in COVID-19 epidemic [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
We present a compartmental SEIAR model of epidemic spread as a generalization of the SEIR model. We believe that the asymptomatic infectious cohort is an omitted part of the understanding of the epidemic dynamics of disease COVID-19. We introduce and derive the basic reproduction number as the weighted arithmetic mean of the basic reproduction numbers ...

Urinary tract infections in the community [PDF]

, 2014
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are defined as significant bacteriuria in the setting of symptoms of cystitis/pyelonephritis. Urine dipstick is diagnostic in most cases.

Costs and effects of screening and treating low risk women with a singleton pregnancy for asymptomatic bacteriuria, the ASB study [PDF]

, 2012
Background The prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) in pregnancy is 2-10% and is associated with both maternal and neonatal adverse outcomes as pyelonephritis and preterm delivery.

Antibiotics for asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnancy

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2007
Asymptomatic bacteriuria is a bacterial infection of the urine without any of the typical symptoms that are associated with a urinary infection, and occurs in 2% to 15% of pregnancies. If left untreated, up to 30% of mothers will develop acute pyelonephritis. Asymptomatic bacteriuria has been associated with low birthweight and preterm birth.

Essential Japanese Guidelines for the Prevention of Perioperative Infections in the Urological Field: 2023 Edition

International Journal of Urology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recently, urological surgery has undergone remarkable technological advances and these new technologies are being adapted to a wide array of medical fields. Robotic‐assisted laparoscopic procedures are not limited to radical prostatectomy, but include partial nephrectomy, pyeloplasty, radical cystectomy, and more.
