ABSTRACT Aims Urinary incontinence (UI) is a prevalent condition among adults and imposes a substantial societal burden, yet its association with all‐cause mortality remains uncertain. This study systematically reviewed and quantified the association between UI and mortality risk.

ABSTRACT Background & Aims Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) can produce bothersome urinary symptoms, impact quality of life, and in some cases, lead to deterioration of upper urinary tract function. Intradetrusor injection of onabotulinumtoxin‐A (BoNT‐A) is approved for NLUTD in patients who have an inadequate response to or ...

Management of Anterior Urethral Strictures [PDF]
Anterior urethral strictures affect the male urethra between the tip of the penis and the apex of the prostate. These form the bulk of urethral strictures in men.

Advancing Personalized Care for Neurogenic Bladder: The Case for Continent Urinary Diversion
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) with a poorly compliant bladder that is refractory to minimally invasive therapies (MIT) represents an “end‐stage” phenotype in which the principal objectives are durable upper urinary tract protection and restoration of continence with acceptable long‐term morbidity.

Urodynamic Voiding Patterns in Multiple Sclerosis
ABSTRACT Aims This study aimed to describe urodynamic voiding patterns in patients with MS (PwMS) using standardized assessments, and to compare the performance of the available nomograms and indices for obstruction and bladder contractility. Methods PwMS and lower urinary tract symptoms underwent cystometry and pressure flow studies.

ABSTRACT Background Achieving continence in patients with neurogenic bladder is a difficult goal especially when stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency is involved. Two techniques are commonly used in that setting, but they have never been directly compared: the artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) and the fascial ...

Introduction: Inserting a Foley catheter for urethral catheterization can lead to numerous iatrogenic injuries in patients, as it is difficult to ensure that the balloon is in the bladder during inflation.

Zeroing Pressures in Urodynamics: Revisiting Current Practice and Pressure Interpretation
ABSTRACT Introduction Zeroing of pressure transducers is a fundamental step in urodynamic testing, as it affects pressure tracings and numerical values. Atmospheric zeroing before catheter insertion is the recommended approach, but zeroing with catheters in situ is also used.

The shape of the urine stream — from biophysics to diagnostics [PDF]
We develop a new computational model of capillary-waves in free-jet flows, and apply this to the problem of urological diagnosis in this first ever study of the biophysics behind the characteristic shape of the urine stream as it exits the urethral ...
