Multicompartmental prolapse: A comparative study between clinical examination and ultrasound

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The accurate diagnosis of multicompartment pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is fundamental to surgical success. This study aims to compare the diagnostic performance of transperineal ultrasound against clinical examination (pelvic organ prolapse quantification, POP‐Q) for the detection of compartmental defects in patients with ...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography for the Assessment of Congestive Liver Disease in Patients With Structural Heart Disease

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Shear wave elastography demonstrated moderate diagnostic accuracy for detecting congestive liver disease in patients with structural heart disease. Increased liver stiffness was associated with echocardiographic markers of venous congestion, supporting the concept that elastography may serve as a noninvasive marker of cardiohepatic interaction ...

Utility of Pelvic Floor Therapy and Behavioral Interventions in the Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction (NLUTD) Population

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) describes a wide range of symptoms depending on neurologic diagnosis and the resulting bladder and sphincter dysfunction. This narrative review is designed to address the question regarding which NLUTD population benefits most from pelvic floor therapy and behavioral interventions, and ...

Subarachnoid hemorrhage after transient global amnesia caused by cerebral venous congestion: case report

BMC Neurology, 2018
Background Transient global amnesia is reported to be caused by cerebral venous congestion. Internal jugular venous flow reversal in particular with the Valsalva maneuver leads to cerebral venous congestion. In addition, Valsalva maneuver can also induce
