Diagnostic Value of the Maximum Urethral Closing Pressure in Women With Overactive Bladder Symptoms and Functional Bladder Outlet Obstruction [PDF]

International Neurourology Journal, 2022
Purpose Overactive bladder (OAB) is observed in women with functional bladder outlet obstruction (FBOO), as are lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Therefore, we evaluated the urodynamic characteristics of women with storage LUTS and FBOO diagnosed by ...

Large bladder diverticulum causing direct extrinsic compression of the left ureter

Urology Case Reports
Bladder diverticula are herniations of the bladder mucosa through the muscular layer and can be congenital or acquired. Acquired bladder diverticula are almost always associated with bladder outlet obstruction.

Effects of 17β-oestradiol on rat detrusor smooth muscle contractility [PDF]

, 2009
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 17β-oestradiol (E2) on detrusor smooth muscle contractility and its possible neuroprotective role against ischaemic-like condition, which could arise during overactive bladder disease.

Isocyanate‐Modified Melatplatin(IV) Enhances Antitumor Efficacy via TCF4/COL6A3‐Mediated Extracellular Matrix Remodeling and cGAS‐STING Pathway Activation in Bladder Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A series of melatonin‐conjugated platinum(IV) prodrugs was functionalized with isocyanate chains (compounds 5‒12). MP‐12C (compound 11) was identified as the lead candidate, with optimal potency and safety. MP‐12C exhibited greater efficacy than cisplatin by increasing intracellular uptake, reshaping the extracellular matrix, activating the cGAS‐STING ...

Transurethral resection of posterior urethral valves

Urology Video Journal, 2022
Posterior urethral valves (PUV) are the most common cause of lower urinary tract obstruction in boys with an incidence of 1.6-2.1 per 10,000 births. Most valves appear as leaflets arising from the verumontanum that fuse anteriorly.

ADNP‐Related Helsmoortel–Van der Aa Syndrome: A Review of the Literature and Clinical Recommendations for Assessment and Monitoring

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ADNP‐related Helsmoortel–Van der Aa syndrome (ADNP‐related HVDAS) is a single gene form of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) caused by pathogenic sequence variants in the activity‐dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP) gene. In addition to ASD, ADNP‐related HVDAS is associated with a wide range of cognitive, behavioral, and physical health ...

Multiple bladder diverticula treated with robotic approach-assisted with cystoscopy

Urology Annals, 2018
A bladder diverticulum (BD) is a herniation of the bladder urothelium through the muscular bladder wall. As a result, BD presents as a thin walled bag, urine filled connected to bladder lumen through a neck or ostium.
