OBJECTIVE
To examine the prevalence and timing of nonbladder conditions in a community cohort of women with symptoms of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS).
METHODS
As part of the Rand Interstitial Cystitis Epidemiology (RICE) study, we identified 3397 community women who met a
Urothelial carcinoma is the most common urological malignancy. Nonspecific immunotherapy using the Bacillus Calmette-Guerin vaccine has long been the mainstay for the treatment of high-risk superficial bladder carcinoma in an adjuvant setting after transurethral endoscopic resection. In metastatic
The modern cystoscope is the result of the advancement in technology in numerous areas and is an invaluable tool that allows the urologist to perform a number of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Although various degrees of endoscope failure have been widely reported, instrument breakage that
OBJECTIVE
To characterize the physiological fatigue in bladder smooth muscles that can occur within 60 s of stimulation, which is closer to the duration of normal voiding.
METHODS
Longitudinal and transverse strips of rat bladder were used; the muscles were mounted in an in vitro multi-muscle
There is increasing evidence that the generation of free radicals plays a role in the development of bladder dysfunction. Flavonoids are a group of polyphenolic compounds with broad pharmacological activity. In the present study, the protective effects of the flavonoid galangin on the progressive
Bladder cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer involving the urinary tract and is the seventh most common cancer in the UK. Delayed diagnosis is associated with high-grade muscle invasive disease which has the potential to progress rapidly, metastasise and is often fatal. Urothelial cancer
A 77-year-old woman who was treated for malignant melanoma was incidentally found to have a bladder tumor on a screening computed tomography (CT). On CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the tumor was detected as a well-enhanced tumor (4 x 5 cm at horizontal plane) on the left side of the
A 15-year-old man with the chief complaint of general fatigue was referred to our hospital on November 11, 1993. Bilateral percutaneous nephrostomy was performed for postrenal anuria. X-ray examinations revealed a huge intrapelvic tumor, and it was histopathologically diagnosed as rhabdomyosarcoma
OBJECTIVE
We compare the systemic (nonurological) symptoms between patients with overactive bladder and subjects without overactive bladder. We also compare the urinary symptoms, quality of life and psychosocial measures between the 2 subgroups of patients with overactive bladder with a high vs low
Bladder dysfunction is one of the most disabling problems in multiple sclerosis patients, associated with lower quality-of-life and social isolation. There have been few studies regarding bladder dysfunction in Iranian patients with multiple sclerosis. Therefore, this study was BACKGROUND
This pooled analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pemetrexed based chemotherapy in treating patients with metastatic bladder cancer as salvage chemotherapy.
METHODS
Clinical studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of pemetrexed based regimens on response and
The majority of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience genitourinary and bowel dysfunction over the course of their illness. Lower extremity pyramidal signs are excellent predictors of concurrent bladder dysfunction. Constipation is the most common bowel dysfunction, which results from a
BACKGROUND
Bacillus Calmette-Guërin--a live, attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis has been used in immunotherapy of patients with superficial urinary bladder carcinoma. Some patients develop complications after intravesical instillation of BCG: high temperature followed by hematuria or
BACKGROUND
Although the etiology of bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC) is still unclear, a common theme with BPS/IC patients is comorbid disorders which are related to the autonomic nervous system that connects the nervous system to end-organs. Nevertheless, no study to date has
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between sleep disturbance, fatigue, and urinary incontinence (UI) and overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms among patients with OAB.
METHODS
Patients who were diagnosed with OAB and age-matched control subjects without OAB were enrolled. Sleep disturbance and
