Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) is a common condition among patients admitted to hospitals, and it associated with worse prognosis increased mortality. Although several screening systems have been developed, PEM still poorly recognized, there no consensus on which test more reliable feasible in clinical practice. Prealbumin (PAB) potential useful marker because its serum concentrations are closely related early changes nutritional status.We studied prevalence PAB 108 hospitalized patients....
We retrospectively report objective and subjective outcomes in 40 male patients who underwent bone anchored suburethral synthetic sling positioning for stress urinary incontinence due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency.Patients with radical retropubic prostatectomy (32), robot assisted laparoscopic (3) transurethral prostate resection (5) between December 2002 2007. Mean followup was 35.2 months (range 2 62). Previous anti-incontinence procedures, radiotherapy procedures urethral stricture...
Objective To describe the trend in surgical volume urology Italy during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak, as a result of abrupt reorganisation Italian national health system to augment care provision symptomatic patients with COVID-19. Methods A total 33 urological units physicians affiliated AGILE consortium (Italian Group for Advanced Laparo-Endoscopic Surgery; www.agilegroup.it) were surveyed. Urologists asked report amount elective procedures week-by-week, from beginning...
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has put a substantial burden on the Italian healthcare system, resulting in restructuring of hospitals to care for COVID-19 patients. However, this likely impacted access patients experiencing other conditions. We aimed quantify impact with urgent/emergent urological conditions throughout Italy. <b><i>Materials and Methods:</i></b> A questionnaire was sent 33 units AGILE...
The aim of this study was to verify the efficacy and safety intravesical treatment combining sodium hyaluronate (HA) chondroitin sulfate (CS) in patients with interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS).Between February 2010 May 2011, 20 consecutive women IC/BPS were treated instillations containing HA (1.6%; 800 mg/50 ml) CS (2%; 1 g/50 weekly for first month, biweekly second then monthly at least 3 months. Before after treatment, all filled Interstitial Cystitis Symptom Index...
Study Type – Therapy (case series) Level of Evidence 4 What’s known on the subject? and What does study add? The treatment female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) still remains a very difficult target for urologists. Tension‐free sling positioning is most used procedure. However, in cases ISD with fixed urethra, or following anti‐incontinence surgical procedures, tension‐free slings are more likely fail spurring an interest alternative less...
Objective: Robotic surgical systems offer better workplace in order to relieve surgeons from prolonged physical efforts and improve their outcomes. However, robotic surgery could produce musculoskeletal disorders due the sitting position of operator, fixed console viewer movements limbs. Until today, no one study has been reported concerning association between robotics pain. The aim this work was verify prevalence among Italian surgeons. Material methods: Between July 2011 April 2012 a...
To report the results of a survey supported by Italian Andrological Association (ASS.A.I.), aimed at documenting sexual disorders in large population patients who visited general practitioners for health problems.Between April and October 2016, 15,000 questionnaires were distributed to throughout Italy made available all people doctor's offices. The data collated separately age ranges, 15-30, 31-50 51-65 years, respectively.A final sample 5441 was evaluable (4000 men 1441 women). Sexual...
BACKGROUND: Pneumonia is both the most common type of lower respiratory tract infection and a major cause morbidity mortality worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 raised an extremely serious concern, because its frequent clinical presentation was pneumonia. Features such as sex play active role in incidence outcomes This study aimed to evaluate differences between sexes concerning COVID-19-related pneumonia.METHODS: retrospective, multicenter that enrolled 340 consecutive...
The aim of this study was to verify the clinical efficacy a diet associated with already commercially available oral amino acid functional cluster (AFC) compared administration nitrogen protein-based supplement (casein) in antagonizing malnutrition patients Chronic renal failure (CRF) undergoing haemodialysis. secondary assess changes protein levels during acute phase such as expression inflammatory cytokines. Twenty haemodialysis aged between 18 and 85 both genders (13 m, 7f) were...
We report our first simultaneous bilateral robot assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) in order to show and critically discuss the feasibility of this procedure. Materials methods A 69-year-old male patient visited department due incidental finding mesorenal small masses (2.5 cm on right 3.5 left) suspicious for malignancy. started from side with flank position. Port placement: 12-mm periumbilical camera port, two 8-mm robotic ports wide ''V''configuration, additional 12 mm assistant port...
Aims To retrospectively report our mid‐ to long‐term results following suburethral tension adjustable sling (Remeex system) implantation for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD). Methods Fifty female patients with severe SUI ISD underwent Remeex system positioning between May 2002 and March 2013 (mean follow‐up 83.8 months, median 85.4 months). Before surgery, were evaluated by physical examination, translabial ultrasonography, cystoscopy, urodynamics, 1...
