A total of 7 patients underwent cystectomy due to bladder malignancy and the ileum was used for lower urinary tract reconstruction (5 substitutions, 1 an internal ileal reservoir conduit diversion). Antireflux mechanisms were created by submucosally tunneled ureters in case continent mechanism a tube. In all cases Yang needle used, which consists portion forceps portion. The selected position ureteral tube implantation is injected with normal saline form wheal. introduced submucosally,...

Prostatic enlargement might affect up to 30% of men and can cause signs symptoms in the lower urinary tract elderly. Imbalanced estrogen androgen secretions are important prostatic physiopathology. Phthalates-environmental endocrine disruptors-affect secretion disrupt sexual organs, including testes prostate, but underlying mechanisms unclear. Using European Association Urology (EAU) guidelines, we recruited from urology clinics southern Taiwan 207 elderly diagnosed with benign hyperplasia...

We demonstrate a rapid antibiotic susceptibility test (AST) based on the changes in dielectrophoretic (DEP) behaviors related to β-lactam-induced elongation of Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) quadruple electrode array (QEA). The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) can be determined within 2 h by observing positive-DEP frequency (pdf) and cell length GNB under cefazolin (CEZ) treatment.

Glycans of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in prostate cancer were found to be different from that benign disease. It is difficult analyze heterogeneous PSA glycoforms each individual specimen because low protein abundance and the limitation detection sensitivity. We developed a method for diagnosis based on glycoforms. Specific screened clinical sample liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry with ion accumulation. To look potential biomarkers, normalized glycoform hyperplasia (BPH)...

Aristolochic acids (AA) and arsenic are chemical carcinogens associated with urothelial carcinogenesis. Here we investigate the combined effects of AA toward risk developing upper tract carcinoma (UTUC).Hospital-based (n = 89) population-based (2,921 cases 11,684 controls) Taiwanese UTUC cohorts were used to association between exposure and/or UTUC. In hospital cohort, was evaluated by measuring aristolactam-DNA adducts in renal cortex identifying A>T TP53 mutations tumors. population...

Purpose: Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) both have been proved to correlate with oncologic outcomes in upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). We hypothesize that integrating SII LVI may be an aid for risk-stratification of prognosis. This study aimed evaluate the prognostic significance combined patients localized UTUC. Patients Methods: A retrospective analysis clinicopathological data 554 UTUC who underwent radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) was...
