Taking a Stand: A Prospective Study on the Influence of Posture on Urodynamic Studies in Older Patients Open
Background and Objectives: Urinary incontinence (UI) is a prevalent issue among older adults and may require urodynamic studies (UDSs) for accurate diagnosis. However, these procedures can be uncomfortable and time-consuming, especially in…

Circadian Patterns in Postvoid Residual and Voided Percentage among Older Women with Urinary Incontinence Open
Background: Women with urinary incontinence incur an increased risk of elevated postvoid residual (PVR) volume and impaired voiding efficiency (i.e., voided percentage (Void%)), but the clinical significance of these parameters remains poo…

Phenotyping nocturnal polyuria: circadian and age-related variations in diuresis rate, free water clearance and sodium clearance Open
Background this study compares diuresis rate, sodium clearance and free water clearance (FWC) by age and time of day (nighttime vs. daytime) in subjects with and without nocturnal polyuria (NP) to determine whether these variables affect t…

Development of a multivariate prediction model for nocturia, based on urinary tract etiologies Open
Relevant information to accomplish the excellent predictability of the model is; functional bladder capacity, 24 hours urine output, nocturnal output, age, BMI. The multivariate model used in this analysis provides new insights into combin…

Clean Intermittent Self-Catheterization as a Treatment Modality for Urinary Retention: Perceptions of Urologists Open
This questionnaire gave valuable insights into urologists' perceptions of CISC, and could serve as the basis for a subsequent broader international study. Further research should also focus on the opinions of nurses and other caregivers in…

Pathophysiology of nocturnal lower urinary tract symptoms in older patients with urinary incontinence Open
Objectives To explore the mismatch between functional bladder capacity and nocturnal urine production, and to study the pathophysiology of an increased nocturnal urine production in older patients with urinary incontinence. Methods The pre…
