The assessment of coronary flow reserve (CFR) by transthoracic Doppler echocardiography has recently been introduced into clinical practice, and reduced CFR suggested to be a sensitive indicator hypertensive end-organ damage; however, date, this methodology not used evaluate in subjects with prehypertension. Accordingly, the present study was designed prehypertension.We measured 40 prehypertension, 60 patients hypertension, 50 normotensive healthy volunteers using echocardiography. None had...

<i>Background:</i> Coronary flow reserve (CFR) reflects the functional capacity of microcirculation to adapt blood demand during increased cardiac work. In this study, CFR hemodialysis patients with angiographically normal coronary arteries was evaluated using transthoracic second harmonic Doppler echocardiography. <i>Methods and Results:</i> Ten patients, 14 sex-, age- left ventricular mass index-matched hypertensive controls underwent echocardiographic examination....

Premature ejaculation (PE) is the most common sexual problem experienced by men, and it affects 20%-30% of them. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) neuromodulation has been shown to be an effective treatment for a wide range pain conditions. We used PRF treat PE desensitizing dorsal penile nerves in patients resistant conventional treatments. Fifteen with lifelong history PE, defined as intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT) <1 minute that occurred more than 90% acts intercourse was...

Background. The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment High Blood Pressure (BP) provides guideline for new category BP levels as normal, prehypertension (PHT), hypertension. Although PHT is associated with a markedly increased risk developing hypertension within 4 years, its prognostic significance predisposition to target‐organ damage unknown. Accordingly, we evaluated effects normal BP, left ventricular (LV) diastolic function...

Although some studies revealed a positive relationship between vitamin D3 deficiency and inflammatory markers, there have been also many that failed to find this relationship. The aim of large scaled study is determine the association level plasma 25 hydroxy [25-(OH) D3] markers in general population without chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with CKD. Participants simultaneously measured 25-(OH) levels were retrospectively analyzed (n = 1897). incidence all-cause inflammation infection,...

It was previously shown that nitric oxide produced by inducible synthase (iNOS) and peroxynitrite are responsible for cyclophosphamide (CP)-induced cystitis. Since endogenous production of is known to lead poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activation, in this study, the aim evaluate whether PARP activation pathway also included pathogenesis CP-induced bladder ulceration rats. A total 48 male albino Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups. Group 1 served as control given 2 ml saline; four...

We evaluated the effectiveness of pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) denervation spermatic cord for treatment chronic orchialgia. Five patients diagnosed with orchialgia were a thorough medical and psychiatric history, physical examination, scrotal Doppler ultrasound, urinary system x-ray film, urine analyses. One had bilateral All pain period at least 3 months, multiple conservative therapies failed to alleviate pain. The patients, who temporary relief after undergoing outpatient diagnostic block,...

Since inhibin B is the endocrine marker of spermatogenesis, basal levels may reflect germ cell status in children. The aims this study were to determine changes parameters after orchiopexy patients with cryptorchidism and compare these findings testicular biopsy parameters.A total 27 boys undescended testis included study. Inguinal was performed all 15 underwent at orchiopexy. Spermatogonia per tubular transverse section fertility index values determined. Before 6 months serum other hormone...

To determine a paradigm that will be helpful for urologists to manage fibrous pseudotumors, which are very rare condition of the testis.We retrospectively evaluated patients with pseudotumors in our uropathological database from 1995 2013. Patients who had tumor markers and ultrosonography (USG) screening before surgery final pathology report pseudotumor were included study.In total, 838 testis mass evaluated. Only 6 these met inclusion criteria. The mean age was 34 years (min: 20, max: 72)....
