Quantification of Aging-Related Decreases in Sensory Innervation of the Bladder Trigone in Rats
CONCLUSION: The structural and functional integrity of the sensory web in the trigonum of rats is negatively affected by the aging process, potentially leading to impaired communication between the bladder urothelium the CNS. Consequently, these perturbations in the sensory system may contribute to the pathogenesis or exacerbation LUTS.PMID:38461855 | DOI:10.5213/inj.2346220.110 (Source: International Neurourology Journal)

Adreno-Muscarinic Synergy of Contractile Responses From Human Hyperplastic Prostate
CONCLUSION: These experiments show that adreno-muscarinic contractile synergy is a feature of human hyperplastic prostate tissue. This has implications for the use of a combination therapy of α-blockers and anti-muscarinic agent to relieve secondary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia, at least in men who can tolerate antimuscarinics without a risk of retention.PMID:38461856 | DOI:10.5213/inj.2346144.122 (Source: International Neurourology Journal)

Application of the Sleep C.A.L.M. Tool for Assessing Nocturia in a Large Nationally Representative Cohort
CONCLUSION: Sleep C.A.L.M. burden is associated with increased odds of nocturia in a dose-dependent fashion, and potentially a relevant means by which to organize the underlying etiologies for nocturia among community-dwelling adults.PMID:38461857 | DOI:10.5213/inj.2346258.129 (Source: International Neurourology Journal)

Decreased Angiopoietin Expression in Underactive Bladder Induced by Long-term Bladder Outlet Obstruction
CONCLUSION: In a rat model of underactive bladder caused by surgical BOO, reduced angiopoietin expression was demonstrated. This observation might underlie visceral ischemia and fibrosis associated with the procedure. The findings of this study might offer an improved understanding of the disease processes underlying BOO and facilitate selection of the appropriate time to repair the organ in this condition.PMID:38171327 | PMC:PMC10762367 | DOI:10.5213/inj.2346296.148 (Source: International Neurourology Journal)

Artificial Intelligence-Based Patient Monitoring System for Medical Support
CONCLUSION: In this study, we developed a urination disease monitoring system aimed at predicting and managing risks for patients with urination issues. The system is designed to support the entire care cycle of a patient by leveraging AI technology that processes various image and signal data. We anticipate that this system will evolve into digital treatment products, ultimately providing therapeutic benefits to patients.PMID:38171328 | PMC:PMC10762372 | DOI:10.5213/inj.2346338.169 (Source: International Neurourology Journal)
