Background: To evaluate the effects of hyaluronic acid (HA) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) on recurrence urethral stricture after treatment with endoscopic internal urethrotomy (EIU). Methods: A total 120 patients underwent EIU for stricture. Recruited were randomly divided into two groups: group B. Patients in (60 patients, experimental group) received HA/CMC instillation B control lubricant urethrotomy. Each patient was evaluated at 4 weeks (V1), 12 (V2), 24 (V3) surgery. The...
The recent outbreak of novel coronavirus-infected pneumonia (NCIP) in China (1) has attracted much attention domestically and internationally.As the occurred, carried out emergency responses quickly, notified World Health Organization (WHO) a timely manner, shared viral gene sequence with international communities immediately after pathogenic identification.The release information on coronavirus (2019-nCoV), joint research relevant genome mutations, pathogenicity, transmission mechanisms,...
This study aimed to predict the composition of urolithiasis using deep learning from urinary stone images.We classified 1,332 stones into 31 classes according composition. The top 4 with a frequency 110 or more (class 1: calcium oxalate monohydrate [COM] 100%, class 2: COM 80%+struvite 20%, 3: 60%+calcium dihydrate [COD] 40%, 4: uric acid 100%) were selected. With 965 images classes, we used seven convolutional neural networks (CNN) classify and compared their classification...
To evaluate risk factors for deterioration of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in elderly men a community-based, prospective longitudinal cohort study.In suburban area Korea, 1,514 subjects aged ≥45 years were randomly selected by systematic sampling. A total 918 enrolled this in-depth clinical study 2004. Of these, 547 participants followed up 3 and the data was analyzed 2014. Standard questionnaires administered face-to-face trained interviewers. After excluding women, 224 male with...
This study aims to explore the relationship between niacin intake and prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) within a large, multi-ethnic cohort.
ObjectiveThe present study evaluated the prognostic significance of apoptosis-related proteins p53, Bax and galectin-3 in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated surgical resection.
Epigenetic aberrations play crucial roles in prostate cancer (PCa) development and progression. The DEFB1 gene, which encodes human ß-defensin-1 (HBD-1), contributes to innate immune responses functions as a potential tumor suppressor urological cancers. We investigated whether differential DNA methylation at the low CpG-content promoter (LCP) of was associated with transcriptional regulation PCa cells. To identify distinct CpG loci within LCP related epigenetic DEFB1, we performed an vitro...
We measured the effectiveness of inhibition adhesion and fibrosis on patient outcomes after epididymectomy as a treatment for chronic epididymitis.An initial cohort 152 patients was treated conservatively epididymitis. Of these 43 did not respond to conservative following informed consent they were enrolled in clinical trial. The randomized into 2 groups so that 22 underwent with concurrent administration inhibitors hyaluronic acid carboxymethylcellulose (group 1), 21 only 2). Visual analog...
This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between insulin resistance and bone mineral density (BMD) of femur lumbar spine in Korean adults who are expected exhibit near peak mass.Data from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey 2008-2010 were analyzed. A total 2,750 participants aged 25-35 years included. Insulin was assessed using a homeostatic model assessment (HOMA-IR) serum fasting insulin.In multivariate linear regression analysis, HOMA-IR significantly inversely associated...
To evaluate the effect of hyaluronic acid (HA) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) instillation after transurethral resection prostate (TURP) on preventing urethral stricture.A total 180 patients underwent TURP for benign prostatic hyperplasia. Recruited were randomly divided into two groups: Groups A B. Patients in group (90 patients, experimental group) received HA/CMC instillation, B control lubricant TURP. Each patient was evaluated at 4 weeks (V1), 12 (V2), 24 (V3) surgery. The...
This prospective, randomized, controlled study investigated the use of tamsulosin, a selective alpha-blocker, as prophylactic medication to prevent postoperative urinary retention (POUR) following lower limb arthroplasty.The criterion for diagnosing POUR was used bladder volume over 400 mL with incomplete emptying. Patients who underwent primary total hip or knee arthroplasty were randomly assigned at 1:1 ratio tamsulosin treatment and non-treatment groups single center from September 2018...
We examined whether the body mass index and change of weight are associated with prostate specific antigen level as well rate velocity in healthy young Korean men.We enrolled this study 8,176 men who were younger than 51 years whom was evaluated at least 3 times. Bivariate multivariate general linear models used to assess independent contributions age, antigen. Mean compared for different ranges, ages, indexes changes using ANOVA tests. Linear logistic regression analysis determine variables...
Objective: To verify the efficacy and safety of tamsulosin 0.4 mg 0.2 compared with those placebo in patients lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods: A total 494 from multiple centers participated this double-blind, randomized, phase 3 trial. Eligible were randomly assigned to group, group or group. The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), maximum flow rate (Qmax), post-void residual (PVR) urine volume, blood pressure, heart adverse...
Objectives To provide surgical treatment trends for urinary stone disease in Korea. Methods We analyzed medical service claim data of treatments to submitted by providers from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service 2009 2016. Results There was a significantly increasing trend among outpatients inpatients 2016 ( R 2 = 0.643, P 0.017; 0.575, 0.029). The number shock wave lithotripsy treating increased 16% 89 553 104 013 0.684). ureteroscopic 97% 6106 12 057 0.99). flexible 16‐fold...
Purpose: To evaluate the values of C-reactive proteins (CRP) for predicting severity and results treatment acute pyelonephritis in women, we compared symptoms signs, laboratory findings initial serum CRP according to early response treatment. Materials Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 298 female patients who were diagnosed with uncomplicated between January 2002 Match 2007. All medical records reviewed a variety factors, baseline characteristics level an those without 3rd hospital day...
Purpose Postmicturition dribbling (PMD) is a stressful symptom in middle-aged men characterized by urinary leakage after the completion of normal voiding. Appropriate treatments have not yet been introduced. This study assessed efficacy treatment PMD with 75 mg udenafil daily.Materials and Methods The included 138 regular sexual lifestyles.

The aim of this study was to assess patient outcome after discontinuation alfuzosin treatment in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).This included 200 BPH patients. Alpha-blockers were discontinued 12 weeks when the International Prostatic Symptom Score (IPSS) reduced < 8 points, peak urine flow rate (Q(max)) increased ≥ 15 ml/s, postvoiding residual (PVR) volume ≤ 100 ml and agreed discontinue treatment. Urinary symptoms assessed at 4, 8, 24 medication, surveys performed asking...
