Chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy versus physical therapist‐led exercise and the risk of cauda equina syndrome in adults with lumbar disc herniation, stenosis, or radiculopathy

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cauda equina syndrome is a surgical emergency often caused by lumbar disc herniation. Spinal manipulative therapy is commonly used for lumbar spine disorders, but case reports have raised concerns it may precipitate cauda equina syndrome. One cohort study suggested no increased risk, although it did not focus on patients with lumbar

Lipid and Foam Cell Accumulation as Novel Pathological Features of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

open access: yesThe Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) encompasses a heterogeneous set of pathological processes that instigate lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Using a mouse model of steroid hormone imbalance–induced lower urinary tract dysfunction, we identified luminal lipid‐laden foamy macrophages, although their presence and contribution to ...

Age‐related clinical heterogeneity and peripheral T cell profile alterations in primary Sjögren's disease: A retrospective study of 5778 patients

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
This large‐scale retrospective study of 5778 primary Sjögren's disease (SjD) patients, stratified by diagnostic age, defines a distinct clinical and immunological profile for early‐diagnosed (<45 years) disease. We identified early diagnosis as an independent risk factor for hypergammaglobulinemia and interstitial lung disease, underpinned by a ...

Cystoscopic extraction of an unusual intravesical foreign body: A case report

open access: yesUroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Foreign bodies (FBs) in the urogenital tract are considered surgical emergencies due to the risk of complications such as perforation, infection, and obstruction. FBs can be introduced into the urethra and migrate into the bladder. Various FBs, including pens, jump ropes, magnetic ball chains, and needles have been reported in the ...

The efficacy and optimal timing of pelvic floor muscle training for post‐prostatectomy incontinence in BPH patients: A systematic review

open access: yesUroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Surgical intervention for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) can lead to postoperative stress urinary incontinence. Pelvic floor muscle exercises (PFME) are proposed as a non‐invasive strategy to mitigate symptoms, but their efficacy and optimal timing remain unclear.

Minimally invasive management of large seminal vesicle cyst in Zinner syndrome: Laser ablation for urinary retention

open access: yesUroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In Zinner syndrome (ZS), surgical intervention is recommended for pediatric patients with symptomatic disease. It is generally believed that cyst aspiration alone may lead to symptom recurrence. Although comprehensive surgical excision is often advocated to prevent recurrence, a combined approach of cyst aspiration and maximal cyst ...
