A Complex Case of Emphysematous Cystitis in a Peritoneal Dialysis Patient

Case Reports in Nephrology, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Emphysematous cystitis (EC) is a relatively rare condition characterized by gas formation in the bladder wall and/or lumen. We report a case of emphysematous cystitis with a bladder perforation in an 84‐year‐old male on peritoneal dialysis who presented with fever, dysuria, hematuria, and hypotension.

Not only diabetic polyneuropathy but also interstitial cells of Cajal dysfunction is a potential mechanism for diabetic cystopathy. [PDF]

Cent European J Urol, 2014
Canda et al. [1] focused on the changes of interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) and neuronal tissue related to diabetes. The results of the current study showed that the number of ICCs in the lamina propria and detrusor muscle is decreased in diabetic patients.

Hyperglycemic memory in the rat bladder detrusor is associated with a persistent hypomethylated state

Physiological Reports, Volume 8, Issue 22, November 2020., 2020
Our studies are the first to provide evidence of “hyperglycemic memory” in the bladder detrusor at the molecular/biochemical level. Evidence is provided that suggests a molecular mechanism for hyperglycemic memory in the diabetic detrusor through epigenetic modification of genomic DNA resulting from an environment of hypomethylation, that persists even

Investigations into the role of endothelin, nitric oxide and prostaglandins in the pathogenesis of diabetic cystopathy [PDF]

, 2001
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) and its receptors (ETA and ETB) have been identified on the urothelium and smooth muscle of the urinary bladder. ET-1 has potent smooth muscle contractile and mitogenic properties. In contrast, the nitric oxide (NO)-cyclic-guanine 3'5'
