This 5-year, prospective, multicenter trial evaluated the long-term safety and efficacy of sacral neuromodulation in patients with refractory urge incontinence, urgency frequency retention.A total 17 centers worldwide enrolled 163 (87% female). Following test stimulation 11 declined implantation 152 underwent using InterStim. Of those treated 96 (63.2%) had 25 (16.4%) 31 (20.4%) retention. Voiding diaries were collected annually for 5 years. Clinical success was defined as 50% or greater...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the urodynamic data before and 6 months after implantation of sacral neuromodulation (SNM, an established treatment for voiding dysfunction, including refractory urge urinary incontinence, UI) to assess correlation between clinical efficacy in patients with UI. PATIENTS AND METHODS In all, 111 a >50% reduction UI symptoms during percutaneous nerve evaluation test qualified surgical SNM. Patients were categorized two subgroups, i.e. those or without confirmed detrusor...
International boundaries have been mainly considered as barriers in literature on the ‘cross-border regional innovation system’ (CBRIS), line with their traditional understanding. In this paper, we underline that such a perspective presents limits, and argue favour of an understanding multidimensional borders are subject to dynamic change over time. By mobilizing conceptualizations from field border studies, examine various functions explain innovation-led development potential cross-border...
Abstract This paper explores possibilities for cross-fertilization between the mission-oriented approach (MOA), informing European Union (EU) Missions, and Cohesion Policy (CP). It argues mutual policy learning CP MOA to address their shortcomings: faces a gradual erosion of its identity, while lacks territorial perspective. can offer theoretical ‘blueprint’ reorganizing clarifying CP’s ever-expanding blurred thematic scope, providing direction strengthen result orientation, encouraging...
We investigated the impact of sacral neuromodulation on quality life and assessed importance for determining success in patients with detrusor hyperactivity, including instability hyperreflexia. also compared it parameters documented a voiding diary.From May 1998 to December 2000, 82 female 31 male 17 79 years old (mean age 51.1) urge incontinence (63), urgency/frequency (5), disturbance (41) pelvic pain (4) resistant conservative treatment were enrolled national prospective registry after...
During the times of COVID-19 pandemic, nations have issued unprecedented border closures around world, yielding abrupt impacts on movement goods and people. This has heavily affected quality life in regions, which are often found to be at a disadvantage when compared other regions terms employment, accessibility, social services economic growth. Based upon developing threads literature concerning untapped potential for development we argue that Mission-Oriented Approach (MOA) can fit well...
The growing interest in addressing societal challenges is changing research and innovation policy dynamics. However, a challenge-oriented approach requires specific public sector capacities to coordinate provide directionality, while having an ecosystem with sufficient scientific technological capabilities address the grand effectively. From this perspective, not one-size-fits-all approach, literature has only recently started investigating territorial differences. current paper proposes...
This paper investigates the main forces driving economic integration in cross-border regions (CBRs). Drawing on proximity framework, it contends that all four forms of need to be stressed regional discourses. The is based a comparison two contexts North America, which have been investigated using survey and semi-structured interviews. Based upon data collected, case studies shed light cognitive as an underestimated driver CBRs. Moreover, identity well access talented workforce emerge...
This paper studies cross-border cooperation at the US-Canadian Cascadia region by implementing an in-depth analysis to examine role of cognitive proximity as a proxy for favourable conditions economic interaction (measured co-publications, co-patents and networking). The deploys primary secondary data sources analysed with qualitative quantitative methods. Based on results, case study demonstrates what is termed 'proximity puzzle': relatively low levels despite high across border. concludes...
This analysis focuses on different levels of Cross-Border Regional Planning (CBRP) processes in the Cascadia borderland. The region is home to business-led initiative 'Cascadia Innovation Corridor' (CIC), designed foster cross-border economic integration. CIC strives build a global innovation ecosystem Cascadia, including new high-speed train connect Seattle and Vancouver. paper scope as CBRP case. authors evaluate engagement city governments coherency between planning scales determine...
This paper aims at evaluating Transit Oriented Development’s performance related to social equity. We are going through the topic starting by definition of oriented Development, understanding its benefits (economic and environmental), unintended consequences (related equity) new strategies avoid latter ones. Finally we will compare two study cases, one in Rome (Italy) Oakland, CA (USA) order figure out whether or not likely be expected. adopt an evaluation design scheme, discovering that...
This paper explores how microbreweries are engaged within the local communities they serve. It investigates whether relationship between and their home localities is driven by microbreweries’ senses of place belonging or market-driven rationales instrumentally promoted through territorial branding strategies. Drawing from earlier literature proposes a typology based on embeddedness community engagement that functions as analytical framework for this study. The feasibility tested drawing...
This study examines the role of international borders in era Covid-19 pandemic, which led to unprecedented national decisions close order contain domestic contagion. The idea that act as shields conflicts with needs cross-border regions, they rely on networks straddling for goods and services' provisions. paper explores different approaches at individual, local, regional policy levels used counterbalance such impacts. As evidenced by North American border closures most non-citizens seeking...
This paper explores the operationalization of policy directionality in terms goal consistency as well spatial dimensions problems and solutions. The study focuses on cross-border regions (CBRs), since they are engaged cooperation to tackle common challenges. employs a comparative analysis across two EU CBRs, drawing theoretical framework that integrates trinity agency scholarships literature multiplicity border functions. By combining these perspectives, we aim illustrate how agents navigate...
This paper examines whether natural disasters open a policy window of opportunity for sustainable transition in lagging regions. Bridging disaster studies and the management approach, authors define Post-Disaster Policy Window Opportunity (PPWO) concept, as heuristic tool to assess acceleration generated by shock. The applies PPWO case study Central Italy earthquake (2016) deploying both primary secondary data concerning public policies designed pursue societal challenges at regional levels....
Aim: There is lack of evidence the role sacral root neuromodulation (SNM) in management chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS). We evaluated effectiveness cycling (CSNM) CPPS patients non responders to conservative treatment. Methods: A prospective, single center, cohort study was carried out on all with refractory conventional treatment, who underwent test stimulation using tined lead between February 2012 and March 2016. During tine positioned along third nerve, side where they reported more...
