To examine the treatment efficacy of Korean Red Ginseng (KRG) in impotent men with erectile dysfunction (ED).A total 60 patients presenting mild or to moderate ED were enrolled a double-blind, placebo-controlled study which efficacies KRG and placebo compared. The received either 1,000 mg (3 times daily) placebo.The five-item version International Index Erectile Function (IIEF-5) score after was significantly higher group compared that before (from 16.4 +/- 2.9 21.0 6.3, P < 0.0001). In...
Purpose: To prospectively determine the accuracy of in vivo proton (1H) magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy distinguishing adrenal adenomas, pheochromocytomas, adrenocortical carcinomas, and metastases, with histologic or computed tomographic findings follow-up data as reference standards. Materials Methods: This study was approved by institutional ethics committee, informed consent obtained. Sixty consecutive patients (24 male 36 female patients; mean age, 53 years) harboring tumors larger...
We categorized bladder patterns and principles of treatment applied to patients who underwent myelomeningocele repair during gestation in a prospective urological assessment.We performed urinary tract ultrasound, voiding cystourethrogram urodynamic evaluation. then into 4 patterns, including normal, high risk (overactive with detrusor leak point pressure greater than 40 cm H2O filling also H2O), incontinent underactive bladder.A total 51 were enrolled study at the first medical appointment....
To report a series of children with lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) whose urge syndrome was treated by electrical stimulation, and their voiding biofeedback; none the were using anticholinergic drugs during treatment.In all, 36 who presented symptoms urgency and/or daily incontinence completed treatment prospectively evaluated. The mean (range) follow-up 13.8 (4-24) months, age 7 (3-14) years, 17 aged <5 years. divided into two groups: group 1, superficial parasacral 2, dysfunction,...
OBJECTIVE To report and analyse cases of cyctic phaeochromocytoma at our institution in previous publications, as adrenal cystic masses are usually associated with nonfunctional lesions, but they can be phaeochromocytoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS The prospective adrenalectomy database was reviewed to identify patients lesions. clinical, radiological histological features were evaluated. Other previously published data identified compared the present series. RESULTS In all, there 107...
Heat-shock protein A2 (HspA2) is correlated with sperm maturity, function and fertility, a dysfunctional expression of such gene results in abnormal spermatogenesis. The purpose this study was to compare HspA2 spermatozoa from oligozoospermic men normozoospermic controls.Semen obtained analysed according World Health Organization (World Organization, 1999) guidelines, morphology by Kruger's strict criteria. Seventeen patients oligozoospermia 21 fertile controls were studied. Total RNA...
Determine the prevalence of erectile dysfunction in patients undergoing hemodialysis.This cross-sectional study was carried out to determine a population 58 hemodialysis program. Erectile assessed by using International Index Function (IIEF). Information on demographic data, renal failure, comorbidities, laboratory tests and search for medical treatment means interviews researches charts obtained. Student t test utilized compare results between group with without dysfunction. The chi-square...

Aims To report our data on initial urological presentation after in utero myelomeningocele (MMC) closure. Methods A prospective assessment at first was designed for patients that had undergone MMC closure and referred to facility. The protocol consisted of detailed medical history, renal sonography, voiding cystourethrogram, urodynamic evaluation. Results In performed 19 gestational age 25.6 weeks 25–27. Birth occurred a mean 31.8 26–36. Hyperactive bladder observed 89.5% 17/19. Bladder...
The bladder is normally impermeable to possible hostile environmental factors and toxic urinary wastes. Any disruption of the permeability barrier would permit leakage urine constituents into underlying cells layers subsequent inflammation. Protamine sulfate, which increases urothelial permeability, used in experimental models cystitis. We examined whether protamine sulfate alone could cause inflammation or if association needed for this condition.Female Wistar rats (Center Development...
Objective: To evaluate renal function in cancer patients undergoing radical nephrectomy (RN) or partial (PN) (open laparoscopic - ORN, OPN, LRN LPN) and to identify risk factors contributing loss. Methods: We analysed 228 consecutive admitted for LPN, ORN LRN. The variables were age, gender, weight, type of surgery (radical versus partial), surgical access laparoscopic), preoperative history hypertension, diabetes malignancy. Absolute was calculated as the difference glomerular filtration...
