  • This retrospective study was performed in 40 cases of canine crystalluria and urinary tract symptoms. Breed, age, sex, diet history and common clinical signs were investigated for patient information. CBC, serum chemistry, urinalysis, urine culture, urine sediment and urinary stone analysis were undertaken for clinicopathological diagnosis. Crystalluria and urinary tract symptoms occurred from 6 months till 14 years in this clinical investigation and the average age was 4.68 years. It had taken an average 7.4 weeks to correct crystalluria and urinary tract symptoms treated by supportive therapy and dietary management. In conclusion, regular clinical pathologic examination, treatment and diet management should be needed to prevent the formation of urolithiasis and urinary tract diseases in dogs with crystalluria and urinary tract symptoms.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study is to report a case of Korean medicine treatment accompaning myofascial trigger-point accupuncture for severe & persistent lower urinary tract symptoms after radical prostatectomy. Materials and Methods: A prostate cancer patient with severe & persistent lower urinary tract symptoms after radical prostatectomy conducted 26 months ago, was treated with Korean medicine accompaning myofascial trigger-point accupuncture. The International Prostate Symptom Score(IPSS), the IPSS Quality of Life(IPSS-QoL) and the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score(OABSS) questionaires were administered to evaluate the effect of treatment for lower urinary tract symptoms. Results: After 5 month treatment with Korean medicine accompaning myofascial trigger-point accupuncture, IPSS, IPSS-QoL and OABSS progressed from 28 to 8, from 5 to 2 and from 12 to 4 respectively.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between lower urinary tract symptoms and urodynamic parameters to investigate the characteristics of mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods: The subjects were 318 women with MUI and 128 women with SUI. Data were collected retrospectively from electronic medical records including Bristol Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms-Scored Form (BFLUTS-SF), Incontinence Quality of Life Instrument (I-QOL), voiding diaries, and urodynamic parameters. Results: Compared with the SUI group, the MUI group was older and showed lower I-QOL and more severe urinary tract symptoms. The MUI group had more urinary frequency, more nocturia, and a higher urgency score than the SUI group. In the correlation analysis, the greatest difference between the two groups was that urgency was associated with Qmax, maximal cystometric capacity, and detrusor overactivity only in the MUI group (r = -.175, p= .004; r = -.281, p< .001; r= .232, p< .001, respectively). Conclusion: As a result of this study, we propose that a customized management program that emphasizes the control of urgency for the MUI group, and one that effectively strengthens the weak pelvic floor for the SUI group.

  • Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the effects of lower urinary tract symptoms on depression and quality of life among women in urban areas. Methods: The participants in this study were 306 women in P city. Data were collected using a questionnaire from May 1 to June 6, 2008. Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) were measured with BFLUTS-SF and categorized into voiding, filling and incontinence. The data were analyzed through t-test, one-way ANOVA, Fisher exact test, and multiple regression. Results: Age, filling and incontinence, and all of the subcategories of LUTS explained 16% of variance in depression. Older women, LUTS with incontinence, filling and incontinence, and all the problems including filling, voiding and incontinence lowered the quality of life. Conclusion: In order to develop nursing interventions for women with urinary tract symptoms, comprehensive understanding of LUTS is needed.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the physiological index, anxiety and depression by the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. Methods: This research was conducted from the 4th to the 27th of May in 2016 on112 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. The data were analyzed using a chi-square test, ANOVA, and Pearson Correlation Coefficients. Results: The results demonstrated a difference depending on the dysuria period of each lower urinary tract symptom, marital status, occupation and perceived health state of the patient. The physiological index by lower urinary tract symptoms showed a difference in the maximum flow rate, amount of post-void residual urine and Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA), and anxiety and depression factors also revealed a difference. Lower urinary tract symptoms showed a positive correlation to the amount of post voided residual urine and PSA, a negative correlation to the maximum flow rate and also indicated a positive correlation to depression. Conclusion: The results of the study belonging to the moderate and severe categories were high when the result was based on the categorization of subjects with benign prostatic hyperplasia with lower urinary tract symptoms. Considering that depression levels increase as the symptom intensifies and the anxiety score is also high with mild symptoms, psychological support intervention is needed when a pattern of benign prostatic hyperplasia appears.

  • 본 연구는 하부요로증상을 가진 성인 남자의 치료 추구 행위 정도를 파악하고 치료추구행위의 영향 요인을 확인하고자 실시되었다. 연구는 공공기관에 근무하거나 공공기관을 방문한 성인 남자 중 하부요로증상을 가진 142명을 대상으로 2016년 10월에서 11월 사이에 구조적 설문지를 이용하여 이루어졌다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 18.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였으며 분석결과, 하부요로증상과 관련한 치료추구 행위를 한 대상자는 55.6%(79명), 치료추구행위를 하지 않았다고 응답한 대상자는 44.4%(63명)로 나타났다. 하부요로증상 관련 치료추구행위의 영향요인은 경제 수준, 주관적 건강상태, 자율성, 관계성 등이 확인되었다. 이는 하부요로증상을 가진 성인 남자의 건강증진을 위하여 치료추구행위를 촉진하는 전략마련이 시급함을 의미하며, 이러한 결과를 고려하여, 중재프로그램 을 개발한다면 대상자의 건강증진에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.

  • Purpose: To analyze data from an observational, prospective, cumulative registry study in 805 hypogonadal men stratified by mild or moderate-to-severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) according to International Prostate Symptom Score. Materials and Methods: A total of 412 men underwent testosterone therapy (TTh) with injectable testosterone undecanoate, 393 men served as untreated controls. Measures of urinary function, anthropometric and metabolic parameters were performed at least twice per year. Results: Data from 615 men with mild LUTS (253 treated, 362 untreated) and 190 with moderate-to-severe LUTS (159 treated, 31 untreated) were available. During a follow-up period of 8 years a significant improvement of LUTS was noted for all TTh-patients whereas the control-groups showed deterioration or fluctuation around initial values. Despite advancing age, TTh fully prevented worsening of symptoms. In parallel, a considerable improvement of anthropometric parameters, lipids and glycemic control, blood pressure, C-reactive protein, and quality of life was found. Moderate-to-severe LUTS was associated with worse cardiometabolic risk profile at baseline as well as worse cardiovascular outcomes during follow-up in comparison to mild LUTS. Effect size of TTh was more pronounced in men with moderate-to-severe than with mild LUTS. Conclusions: Correcting hypogonadism by TTh is highly effective and safe for improving LUTS in hypogonadal men. TTh may also improve cardiometabolic risk and major adverse cardiovascular events.
