Actinomycosis of the urinary bladder
Canadian Urological Association Journal, 2013 Actinomycosis of the urinary bladder is a rare anaerobic bacterial infection caused by Actinomyces isrealii. Initial diagnosis is often difficult and this disease is easily misdiagnosed as a urothelial or urachal tumour. The definitive diagnosis is usually made postoperatively via tissue pathology. We discuss a case of a 54-year-old male with a smoking

Inguinal Herniation of the Urinary Bladder Presenting as Recurrent Urinary Retention
Case Reports in Surgery, 2015 Herniation of the urinary bladder into the inguinal canal is an uncommon finding, observed in 0.5–4% of inguinal hernias (Curry (2000)). It is usually associated with other conditions that increase intra-abdominal pressure such as bladder neck ...

The history of anatomical engagement
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract The public's fascination with anatomy has evolved over time and progressed from avoidance of the tainted yet saintly corpse, to their fascination with cabinets of curiosities. The current narrative review explores public engagement (PE), from its potential origins as cave paintings, to the rise of the disciplinarity of anatomy.

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2018 Changes in urinary bladder function and somatic sensation may be mediated, in part, by inflammatory changes in the urinary bladder including the expression of chemokines. Male and female C57BL/6 mice were treated with cyclophosphamide (CYP; 75 mg/kg, 200

A Design Space Exploration (DSE) on Non-Invasive Sensing of Bladder Filling Using Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Urinary Incontinence (UI) is a widespread medical condition that affects one person from every three or four Americans. Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive under-study method for bladder filling sensation that can enhance the life quality of UI patients by finding the optimal voiding time.

A machine learning approach to using Quality-of-Life patient scores in guiding prostate radiation therapy dosing [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Thanks to advancements in diagnosis and treatment, prostate cancer patients have high long-term survival rates. Currently, an important goal is to preserve quality-of-life during and after treatment. The relationship between the radiation a patient receives and the subsequent side effects he experiences is complex and difficult to model or predict ...

Severe Vesico-ureteral Reflux and Urine Sequestration: Mathematical Relations and Urodynamic Consequences [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Some simple mathematical formulae to calculate the volumes of proximal pyeloureteral reflexive systems are presented, and the results are compared to bladder capacity values. Using the results of the calculi, the author discusses possible implications of severe urinary sequestration in the pyeloureteral systems.

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract This paper explores teachers', parents' and pupils' perceptions and described experiences of school toilet policies, provisions and practices within state‐funded primary (5–11 years) and secondary (11–16 years) schools in England. In doing so, this research critically examines how school‐specific policies and toilet provisions influence ...

Identification of a cisplatin resistant-based prognostic immune related gene signature in MIBC
Translational OncologyCisplatin resistance plays a significant role in the dismal prognosis and progression of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). However, the strategies to predict prognosis and cisplatin resistance are inefficient, and it remains unclear whether ...
