Association between the neutrophil ‐to‐lymphocyte ratio and intravesical prostatic protrusion in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia
ConclusionsNLR can be used as a surrogate marker for presence of IPP. Its clinical value would be especially important in men with a small prostate gland but high IPP. The NLR seemed to be more strongly correlated with IPP than with TPV. (Source: LUTS: Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms)

High incidence of lower urinary tract dysfunction in women with recurrent urinary tract infections
AbstractThe aim of this study was to evaluate lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) in women with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). One hundred consecutive female patients with recurrent UTIs who underwent videourodynamic study (VUDS) were included. Another 25 women free from recurrent UTIs served as controls. All the underlying diseases, urine analysis and culture results, VUDS findings, and treatment outcomes of voiding dysfunction were carefully reviewed and analyzed. The mean age of the recurrent UTIs patients was 64.0 ± 16.0 years. Storage and voiding dysfunctions were found in 90 (90%) patients, includin...
