Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

Photo Quiz: Globose Yeast‐Like Forms With Multiple Peripheral Buds in Urine and Cervical Cytology
ABSTRACT A 26‐year‐old immunocompetent woman with a history of noninvasive, low‐grade papillary urothelial carcinoma presented with persistent upper abdominal pain. Urine cytology, performed for bladder tumor surveillance, revealed globose, yeast‐like forms (10–30 μm) with thick walls and multiple narrowly attached peripheral buds in a “ship wheel ...

Bladder neck obstruction in women [PDF]
Bladder neck obstruction in women is uncommon. It should be suspected in patients with chronic symptoms of obstruction and irritation, and with signs including bladder trabeculation, diverticula, and vesicoureteric reflux.

Urinary miRNA profiles discriminate between obstruction-induced bladder dysfunction and healthy controls. [PDF]
Urgency, frequency and incomplete emptying are the troublesome symptoms often shared between benign prostatic obstruction-induced (BLUTD) and neurogenic (NLUTD) lower urinary tract dysfunction.

Pelvic Exenteration for Cervical Cancer: Oncological, Morbidity and Quality of Life Outcomes
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives One third of patients who undergo definitive chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer develop disease recurrence. Salvage surgery in the form of pelvic exenteration (PE) may offer improved survival and possibly cure in carefully selected patients, however robust data is scarce.

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 ...

Effects of Spinal and Peripheral Injection of α1A or α1D Adrenoceptor Antagonists on Bladder Activity in Rat Models with or without Bladder Outlet Obstruction [PDF]
Purpose Antagonists of α1-adrenergic receptors (α1ARs) relax prostate smooth muscle and relieve voiding and storage symptoms. Recently, increased expression of α1ARs with change of its subtype expression has been proved in bladder outlet obstruction (BOO)
