Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of biofeedback-assisted pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) and PFMT alone on voiding parameters in women with dysfunctional voiding (DV). Materials and Methods: The patients in group 1 (34 patients) were treated with biofeedback-assisted PFMT, and the patients in group 2 (34 patients) were treated with PFMT alone for 12 weeks. The 24-hour frequency, average voided volume, maximum urine flow rate (Qmax), average urine flow rate (Qave), post-void residual urine volume (PVR), and the validated Turkish Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI-6) symptom scores were recorded before and after 12 weeks of treatment. Results: At the end of treatment sessions, the Qmax and Qave values of the patients in group 1 were significantly higher than those in group 2, and the PVR in the patients in group 1 was significantly lower than those in group 2 (p=.026, .043, and .023, respectively). The average UDI-6 symptom scores of the patients in group 1 were significantly lower than those in group 2 (p=.034). Electromyography activity during voiding, in group 1 was significantly lower than in group 2 (41.2 vs. 64.7, respectively, p=.009). Conclusion: Biofeedback-assisted PFMT is more effective than PFMT alone in improving clinical symptoms, uroflowmetry parameters, and EMG activity during voiding. - Evaluation of ventricular repolarization parameters in erectile dysfunction: a predictor of cardiac diseases

Journal of Men S Health, 2022
Background: The purpose of this study is to compare the electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters, which are indicators of ventricular repolarization, between men with erectile dysfunction (ED) and healthy ones. Methods: A total of 56 men aged 30–65 years diagnosed with ED were included in the study from March 2021 to November 2021. The control group comprises 59 year-old healthy male volunteers. The International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) questionnaires were used to diagnose ED. The standard 12-lead surface ECG was taken for the whole study group and QT intervals (time between start of the Q, and end of the T wave seen on an ECG, approximating to the time taken from when the cardiac ventricles start to contract to when they finish relaxing), QRS complex (a combination of Q, R, and S waves seen on a typical ECG), and Tp-e intervals (the interval from the peak to the end of the electrocardiographic T wave seen on an ECG) were measured. The corrected QT (QTc) was calculated according to the heart rate using Bazett’s formula. The Tp-e/QT and Tp-e/QTc ratios were calculated. Results: The mean age in the study group was 51.88 years ± 1.13 years. Comorbid conditions were similar between the ED and control groups. There was no significant difference between the ECG parameters of the groups (i.e., heart rate, RR interval, QT, QTc and QRS duration). However, the Tp-e interval (76.79 ms ± 1.41 ms vs 70.46 ms ± 1.27 ms, p = 0.0006), Tp-e/QT (0.21 ± 0.004 vs 0.19 ± 0.004, p = 0.0054) and Tp-e/QTc (0.21 ± 0.004 vs. 0.17 ± 0.004, p < 0.0001) was significantly higher in the ED group than in the healthy control group. Conclusions: The routine cardiac evaluation in cases of a disease knowingly related to cardiovascular diseases, such as ED, provides an opportunity to anticipate possible complications and take precautions. We believe that an inexpensive and non-invasive method such as the ECG is important in this cardiac evaluation. The use of relatively new parameters in routine ECG evaluation such as Tp-e and Tp-e/QT, which show the transmural distribution of repolarization, may also be useful in estimating the risk of arrhythmia. - Ultra-mini flexible percutaneous nephrolithotomy in the treatment of moderate-size kidney stones: a new instrument, a preliminary prospective study

Objective To investigate the effects of the novel combination of a long urethral stump and anterior suspension suture in patients who underwent Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy (RALP) for localized prostate cancer. Materials and Methods Of the 40 participating patients, 20 did not undergo any reconstructive technique, whereas the remaining 20 patients underwent reconstructive technique that included the combination of long urethral stump and anterior suspension suture. Body mass index (BMI) (kg/m2), age, preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels, prostate volume, Gleason score, D'Amico risk class, clinical stage, operation type and the application of either perioperative or postoperative reconstructive techniques, and the duration of catheterization were the parameters investigated. Continence rate was measured in the 3rd, 6th, and 12th month after the removal of the catheter. Both techniques were compared statistically. Results The control and reconstructive groups each comprised 20 patients. Between the groups, no statistically significant differences were observed in age, BMI, American Society of Anesthesiologists class, risk group, prostate weight, perioperative PSA, duration of surgery, duration of hospitalization, surgical margins, and the total amount of bleeding (p>0.05). Continence rate was significantly higher in the reconstructive group in the 3rd and 6th months compared with the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion The combination of anterior suspension suture and long urethral stump contributed to early improvement in the continence rates. - Could spinal anesthesia be a choice for retrograde intrarenal surgery

Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare cases of retrograde intrarenal surgery performed under spinal or general anesthesia through investigating relevant parameters for the first time in the literature. Material and method: In total, 86 patients with diagnosis of kidney stone who were treated by retrograde intrarenal surgery were included in this randomized controlled prospective study. In total, 43 of these operations were performed under spinal anesthesia (group I) and 43 were performed under general anesthesia (group II). The groups were compared in terms of demographic features, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, duration of operation, complication rates, postoperative visual analogue scale, postoperative hospitalization period, stone-free rates, and cost value ratios. Results: There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of demographic findings, preoperative stone loads, postoperative stone-free rates, complication rates and postoperative hospitalization periods (p > 0.05). Postoperative visual analogue scale scores and cost value ratios were found statistically significantly lower in the spinal anesthesia group (group I) when compared with the general anesthesia group (group II; p < 0.001). Conclusion: Performing retrograde intrarenal surgery in the presence of spinal anesthesia is equally effective with general anesthesia. Spinal anesthesia also appears to be a more advantageous method due to statistically significantly lower mean postoperative pain scores and treatment cost value ratios. - Can platelets be the early biomarkers of erectile dysfunction?

Etoricoxib features antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties concomitantly, suggesting that it may be beneficial in testicular ischemia reperfusion (I/R) damage. Our aim is to investigate the effects of etoricoxib on testicular I/R damage induced with torsion-detorsion (TD). The etoricoxib + torsion-detorsion (ETD) groups of animals were given etoricoxib in 50 and 100 mg/kg of body weight (ETD-50 and ETD-100), while the testes torsion-detorsion (TTD) and sham operation rat group (SOG) animals were given single oral doses of distilled water as a solvent. TTD, ETD-50 and ETD-100 groups were subjected to 720° degrees torsion for four hours, and detorsion for four hours. The SOG group was not subjected to this procedure. Biochemical, gene expression and histopathological analyses were carried out on the testicular tissues. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), myeloperoxidase (MPO), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) were significantly higher, and the levels of total glutathione (tGSH) and glutathione reductase (GSHRd) were significantly lower in the TTD group, compared to the ETD-50, ETD-100 and SOG groups. Etoricoxib at a dose of 100 mg/kg better prevented I/R damage than the 50 mg/kg dose. Etoricoxib may be useful in clinical practice in the reduction of I/R damage on testes caused by torsion-detorsion. - Comparison of the Effect of Lidocaine versus a Lidocaine-Bupivacaine Combination in a Periprostatic Nerve Block Undergoing Transrectal Ultrasound-Guided Prostate Biopsy: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial

Introduction: To determine whether a combination of the long acting local anesthetic, bupivacaine, and lidocaine is better than lidocaine alone in the long-term pain control, which is a short-acting anesthetic. Materials and Methods: In group 1, periprostatic nerve block was applied to both neurovascular areas with 2% lidocaine (5 ml) in an isotonic solution (5 ml). In group 2, the combination of 2% lidocaine (5 ml) and 5mg/ml bupivacaine (5 ml) was used for the PPNB. Results: In the first 30 minutes the mean VAS scores of groups 1 and 2 were 2.1 ± 0.2 and 1.2 ± 0.1, respectively (p = 0.002). VAS scores of group II determined at 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours after the biopsy were significantly lower since it was (p < 0.05). Conclusion: While periprostatic nerve block for late phase pain control, applying a combination of a long-acting local anesthetic, such as bupivacaine, is effective in terms of pain control and patient comfort. - Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy under sedoanalgesia for treatment of kidney stones in infants: a single-center experience with 102 cases
