Pudendal nerve release for lower urinary tract symptoms in young males
ConclusionPudendal nerve entrapment syndrome should be considered as a main differential diagnosis for refractory LUTS in young males with no other comorbidities. When clinical features of pudendal nerve entrapment are present, laparoscopic transperitoneal pudendal decompression relieves LUTS in these young males. (Source: LUTS: Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms)

Correlations between severity of anterior vaginal wall prolapse and parameters of urethral pressure profile
ConclusionOur results showed that AVWP significantly attenuated urethral pressure. However, patient age, menopausal status, and number of parities seem to be more influential in compromising urethral function than just AVWP alone. (Source: LUTS: Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms)

Characterization of a method to study urodynamics and bladder nociception in male and female mice
ConclusionsIn conclusion, this technique can measure the VMR and bladder nociception associated with voiding in both female and male mice. Although confounds still exist with the use of anesthesia, further exploration of non ‐anesthetized voiding‐evoked VMR is warranted. (Source: LUTS: Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms)

Urothelial health after platelet ‐rich plasma injection in intractable recurrent urinary tract infection: Improved cell proliferation, cytoskeleton, and barrier function protein expression
ConclusionIntravesical PRP repeat injections improve the urothelial cell proliferation and increase the CK 20 expression in umbrella cells. PRP repeat injections have a beneficial effect on bladder urothelium ‐associated changes in rUTI. Thus, PRP injection may restore urothelial health and prevent UTI recurrence in intractable rUTI.

Is there a unique symptom in lower urinary tract dysfunction in children?
ConclusionsWhile certain symptoms are often presumed by clinicians to imply specific diagnoses, the main outcome of this study is that there is a generally weak correlation between the specificity of symptoms and LUTD. Symptoms ‐based approach may lead to misdiagnosis in LUTD. Thus, it may be essential to focus on the underlying pathologies and UF/EMG test may help this. (Source: LUTS: Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms)

Deficits of urothelial cell proliferation, cytoskeleton, and barrier function protein expressions in patients with recurrent and persistent urinary tract infections
ConclusionDeficits in expression of proteins involved in urothelial cell proliferation, cytoskeleton, and barrier function were noted in patients with rUTIs. These urothelial deficits may be due to deficient proliferation and differentiation resulting in inadequate urothelial barrier function and further in rUTIs.

Postpartum urinary retention: Absolute risk prediction model
ConclusionsOur study identified non ‐Caucasian ethnicity, nulliparity, and a BMI<30 kg/m2 at the end of the pregnancy as minor and epidural analgesia, meconium ‐stained amniotic fluid, vaginal nonoperative birth, vacuum extraction, pushing stage ≥60 minutes, and perineal tear as major independent risk factors for PPUR.

Application of adipose ‐derived, muscle‐derived, and co‐cultured stem cells for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in rat models
ConclusionsThe outcomes of this investigation indicated that the application of co ‐cultured adipose‐derived and muscle‐derived stem cells could be associated with higher therapeutic value in stress urinary incontinence patients compared with singular‐cell treatments.
