OBJECTIVE
We assessed the impact of nocturia on the general and disease-specific health-related quality of life (HRQOL) for men with localized prostate cancer.
METHODS
A total of 620 men with prostate cancer were enrolled to our study. All of the subjects completed the questionnaires before primary
OBJECTIVE
After radiation therapy for prostate cancer, approximately 50% of the patients experience acute genitourinary symptoms, mostly nocturia. This may be highly bothersome with a major impact on the patient's quality of life. In the past, nocturia is seldom reported as a single, physiologically
Study Type - Therapy (cohort) Level of Evidence 4. What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? Accumulating evidence suggests that inflammation may contribute to the development of BPH and LUTS. Therefore, it is plausible that anti-inflammatory agents, such as aspirin and other NSAIDs,
BACKGROUND
Patients with prostate cancer receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) are at risk of sleep disturbance; however, to the authors' knowledge, the mechanisms by which ADT may affect sleep are not well understood. The current study compared objective and subjective sleep disturbance in
BACKGROUND
Irritative voiding symptoms are common in elderly men and following prostate radiotherapy. There is limited clinical data on the impact of hypofractionated treatment on irritative voiding symptoms. This study sought to evaluate urgency, frequency, and nocturia following stereotactic body
OBJECTIVE
Local relapse after radiotherapy for prostate cancer mostly originates at the original tumor location. Dose escalation reduces local relapse rates. It may be of benefit to focus the highest dose to the intraprostatic lesion (GTVMRI) using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). Therefore,
The aging process, behavioural habits and a multitude of pathological conditions are the main contributors to the development of nocturia in the elderly. Age-related physiological changes can alter the regular pattern of urine excretion and lead to increased nocturnal frequency of voiding. In
OBJECTIVE
To report on toxicity after postoperative intensity-modulated arc therapy (IMAT) for cervical (CC) and endometrial cancer (EC).
METHODS
Twenty-four CC and 41 EC patients were treated with postoperative IMAT. If indicated, para-aortic lymph node irradiation (preventive or when affected,
A 52-year-old male chemical worker was admitted to the hospital with a history of paroxysmal microscopic hematuria for about 2 years and nocturia with gross hematuria about five times per night for 2 months. He was a nonsmoker and denied a history of any other bladder carcinogen exposure except for
OBJECTIVE
The treatment of non muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) continues to be a challenge. Hyperthermia (HT) combined with intravesical chemotherapy is used to enhance the effects of chemotherapy.
METHODS
A review of the publications was carried out to synthesize the adverse effects (AE)
Primary hyperparathyroidism is the most common cause of hypercalcemia and 80-85% of the patients have parathyroid tumors. The purpose of this retrospective review was to analyse whether differences exist between patients with parathyroid tumors treated in the 1980s and 1990s. Between 1980-1997, 253
OBJECTIVE
To assess the acute toxicity of three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) in prostate cancer patients eligible for implant monotherapy.
METHODS
Between December 1991 and June 1998, 198 prostate cancer patients were treated with 3D-CRT at the University of California Davis Medical
OBJECTIVE: To present a pineal tumor diagnosed after long clinical course of diabetes insipidus.CASE REPORT: A ten years old male patient, with symptoms of polyuria, polydipsia and nocturia for 18 months was admitted at the Nephrology Unit with the diagnosis of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Six
OBJECTIVE
Many conditions and characteristics are cross-sectionally associated with nocturia. However, to our knowledge longitudinal associations of frequency-volume chart based nocturia have not yet been studied. We identify (modifiable) determinants of nocturia in older men in a longitudinal
OBJECTIVE
Investigators have reported that men undergoing radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP) for prostate cancer (PCa) can experience significant changes in nocturia after surgery. We examined the effect of robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) on nocturia symptoms in men with PCa
