Evaluation of Patients with Painful Bladder Syndrome/Interstitial Cystitis

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2005
This review looks into the evaluation of patients with interstitial cystitis (IC). Interstitial cystitis is not easy to define. There is a lot of activity in this domain and a great international effort is made to get to a generally accepted definition ...

Mucoadhesive Peptide‐Catalase Self‐Assembled Nano‐Formulation for Effective Treatment of Mucosal Inflammatory Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CR8L10 is self‐assembled with catalase (CAT) to form CR8L10@CAT nanocomplexes, which can anchor to mucosal surfaces via thiol‐disulfide exchange with mucin, thereby enhancing their mucosal retention. The efficient reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging at inflamed sites would then result in successful treatment in both the intravesical IC/BPS model ...

Spinal astrocytic activation contributes to mechanical allodynia in a rat model of cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2016
Background Previous studies have demonstrated that glial cells play an important role in the generation and maintenance of neuropathic pain. Activated glial cells produce numerous mediators such as proinflammatory cytokines that facilitate neuronal ...

A Bioinspired Underwater Soft Robot for Active Intravesical Liquid Delivery and Mixing

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A bioinspired underwater soft robot is reported that integrates an elastic strain energy‐driven soft robotic pump with a programmable flexible magnetic valve, enabling remotely controlled, programmable, and sustained liquid release and mixing. This functionality is enabled by the synergistic integration of elastic strain energy‐driven pumping and ...

Observations on interstitial cystitis [PDF]

open access: yesUrology, 1975
Interstitial cystitis is more common in young women than previously believed. Findings typical of the disease are a history of diurnal and nocturnal pollakiuria, pelvic discomfort increases with bladder distention, marked bladder tenderness on gentle palpation of the anterior later vaginal fornices, less than normal bladder capacity, and a negative ...

Pathology of interstitial cystitis [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urology, 2003
Abstract In this workshop the participants were asked to consider the role of pathology in the diagnosis and management of interstitial cystitis (IC). Currently, the NIDDK definition of IC is made on clinical criteria; bladder biopsy is not required for the clinical work‐up and histology is not used as a diagnostic criterion.

Human biomarker navigator

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
The Human Biomarker Navigator integrates the disease continuum, biomarker dynamics, cross‐organ biomarker networks, biomarker classification, and technology‐driven paradigms. It maps how biomarkers link multi‐system physiology and pathology across the nervous, respiratory, endocrine, circulatory, immune, digestive, urinary, reproductive, and ...
