The relationship between infecting organisms and underlying structural anomalies in children with urinary tract infections [PDF]

, 2008
Introduction: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a common cause of morbidity in childhood with potential for renal scarring and reflux nephropathy which can lead to hypertension and end-stage renal failure.

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...

Boronic Acid Inhibitors of β‐Lactamases: A Promising Strategy Against Antimicrobial Resistance

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical threat to global health, mostly due to the proliferation of β‐lactamases, a class of enzymes responsible for the inactivation of β‐lactam antibiotics. Among the most promising strategies to restore β‐lactam efficacy is the use of β‐lactamase inhibitors (BLIs), with boronic acid ...

Non‐Invasive Triage of Bladder Outlet Obstruction and Detrusor Underactivity in Men With Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms: A Narrative Review and Conceptual Framework for Depth‐Aware Multimodal Transcutaneous Testing

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Differentiating bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) from detrusor underactivity (DU) remains a major unmet need in the management of lower urinary tract symptoms in men. Although pressure–flow urodynamics provide a definitive physiological classification, their invasiveness limits their widespread use.

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.

Urinary ATP and visualization of intracellular bacteria: a superior diagnostic marker for recurrent UTI in renal transplant recipients? [PDF]

, 2014
Renal transplant recipients (RTR) are highly susceptible to urinary tract infections (UTIs) with over 50% of patients having at least one UTI within the first year.

Bladder Contractility Classification Before Bladder Outlet Surgery: Do BCI, Wmax and the Maastricht–Hannover Nomogram Agree and Does It Matter for Outcome?

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The aim of this study was to assess the concordance between three classification systems (bladder contractility index, Maximum Watt's factor and Maastricht–Hannover nomogram) in allocating men to bladder contractility subgroups. Secondary aim was to explore whether preoperative contractility classification was associated with short ...

Systematic review and meta-analysis of candidate gene association studies of lower urinary tract symptoms in men [PDF]

, 2014
Context Although family studies have shown that male lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are highly heritable, no systematic review exists of genetic polymorphisms tested for association with LUTS. Objective To systematically review and meta-analyze

Factors Impacting Continuation of Onabotulinum Toxin Therapy for Idiopathic and Neurogenic Urgency Urinary Incontinence

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction We investigated demographic, diagnostic, and socioeconomic variables associated with continuation and discontinuation of onabotulinum toxin (BTX) therapy in adult patients treated for idiopathic and neurogenic urgency urinary incontinence (UUI).
