Diabetes‐Induced Dysregulation of Purinergic Signaling in the Bladder Mucosa: Accelerated ATP Hydrolysis and Impaired Adenosine Uptake Promote Underactive Bladder Phenotype

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore molecular mechanisms underlying excessive extracellular adenosine (ADO) accumulation in the bladder lamina propria (LP) of mice with type 2 diabetes (T2D) induced by a high‐fat, high‐sucrose diet (HFHSD), conceivably leading to bladder underactivity.

One Size Does Not Fit All: Establishing Anticipated Baseline Intravesical Pressures Adjusted for Position and Body Mass Index

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Accurate measurement of intravesical pressure (Pves) during multichannel urodynamic testing requires zeroing with reference to surrounding atmosphere, establishing a reference level for measuring Pves, and assessing response to coughs.

Zeroing Pressures in Urodynamics: Revisiting Current Practice and Pressure Interpretation

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
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.

In vitro evaluation of the impact of silver coating on Escherichia coli adherence to urinary catheters

, 2015
A silver-coated urinary catheter was compared to a non-silver-coated urinary catheter for the ability to reduce adherence of 6 isolates of Escherichia coli. Catheters were incubated with E. coli strains for 0, 24, 48, and 72 h.

New and Emerging Artificial Urinary Sphincters for Male Stress Urinary Incontinence: From Gold Standard to Next Generation

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction For more than four decades, the AMS‐800 has remained the clinical benchmark device for the treatment of male stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Although it remains the gold standard for male SUI, the AMS‐800 has continued to have limitations such as suboptimal post‐operative continence rates, fixed hydraulic pressure, need for ...

Determinants of Estrogen Prescriptions for Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Vaginal estrogen is a highly effective, evidence‐based prevention method for postmenopausal women with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), yet studies suggest its underutilization by non‐specialist providers. Guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), this study examined adoption, fidelity, and

Functional Roles of Adenosine A2B and A3 Receptor Subtypes in the Bladder of Male Rats With A2B Receptor Deletion or Bladder Outlet Obstruction

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To investigate the adenosine receptor (AR) mechanism underlying bladder outlet obstruction (BOO)‐related bladder dysfunction, we examined the expression level of AR subtypes in bladder tissues, and the effects of AR subtypes A2B & A3 modulation on bladder activity using male BOO rats, and Dahl rats with A2B receptor deletion.

Development and Validation of Urodynamic Report Writer: A Chat GPT App

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Accurate interpretation and reporting of urodynamic studies are essential for diagnosis and management of lower urinary tract dysfunction, yet remain time‐consuming and operator‐dependent. To develop and validate the Urodynamic Report Writer App (URapp), a GPT‐4o‐based virtual assistant that supports interpretation of clinician ...
