To determine the feasibility of commercially available multielectrode cardiac electrophysiology catheters to detect electrical activity in the human bladder. Ten subjects requiring cystoscopy for the evaluation of lower urinary tract pathology were eligible for participation in our study. After routine rigid cystoscopy with a 70° cystoscope, variou...

Nocturnal polyuria (NP) is defined by the International Continence Society (ICS) as "excessive production of urine during the main sleep period" and is one of the main causes of nocturia. The ICS recognized that "excessive" is not clearly defined and that this needs to be highlighted in both clinical and research settings. The aim of this study was...

Evidence-based guidelines for the management of frail older persons with urinary incontinence are rare. Those produced by the International Consultation on Incontinence represent an authoritative set of recommendations spanning all aspects of management. To summarize the available evidence relating to the management of urinary incontinence in frail...

To investigate the association between B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and nocturia among community-dwelling males and females. A total of 1096 participants (mean age 71.9 ± 7.1 years, 518 [47.2%] males) were included in the study. The number of nocturnal voids was recorded in a self-reported urination diary, and nocturia was defined as two or mor...

To assess performance, acceptability, external validity, and reliability of a phone application electronic bowel diary (PFDN Bowel eDiary). Women reporting refractory accidental bowel leakage (ABL) were enrolled in a randomized, crossover trial evaluating paper versus eDiary documentation of bowel movements (BM) and fecal incontinence episodes (FIE...

The aim was to describe the characteristics of young adult women who report urinary incontinence (UI), the types of UI they experience, the strategies they use or consider important for managing UI, and help-seeking behavior. Data were from the 1989-1995 Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health cohort (n = 8457) at age 22 to 27 (in 2017). De...

While numerous studies have confirmed ATP's importance in bladder physiology/pathophysiology, the literature is still conflicted regarding the mechanism of ATP release from the urothelium. Multiple mechanisms have been identified including non-vesicular release via pannexin channels as well as vesicular release via a mechanism blocked by botulinum ...

Aims: We determined the prevalence, severity, and correlates of nocturia in a large clinical cohort of patients. Methods: Patients presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) completed 3-day bladder diaries. Nocturia was quantified based on the mean number of nighttime voids documented over the 3 days. Nocturia subtypes (global polyuria, no...

Clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) is recommended for bladder management after spinal cord injury (SCI) since it has the lowest complication rate. However, transitions from CIC to other less optimal strategies, such as indwelling catheters (IDCs) are common. In individuals with SCI who stopped CIC, we sought to determine how individual charac...

To evaluate the histological response to and changes in the biomechanical properties of titanized polypropylene lightweight mesh and conventional polypropylene mesh at 1 and 12 weeks following implantation in the sheep vagina. We compared a titanized polypropylene lightweight mesh (TiLOOP Mesh) to a conventional polypropylene mesh (Gynemesh PS) in ...
