RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Male urinary tract infections (mUTIs) are rare in primary care. The definition of mUTIs varies across countries. The therapeutic management of mUTIs in France is based on a 14-day course of fluoroquinolones despite a high risk of antimicrobial resistance. OBJECTIVES: The objective of this qualitative study was to explore general practitioners' (GPs) experiences and behaviours regarding the diagnostic and therapeutic management of mUTIs. METHODS: GPs were recruited by convenience sampling in Haute Normandie (France) and interviewed individually with semi-structured guides. GPs' experiences and behaviours were recorded and analysed using an interpretive phenomenological approach. RESULTS: From March 2021 to May 2022, 20 GPs were included in the study. Defining a mUTI was perceived as a diagnostic challenge. A diagnosis based on clinical evidence alone was insufficient and complementary tests were required. For GPs: 'male cystitis does not exist'. A mUTI was considered an unusual disease that could reveal an underlying condition. GPs considered fluoroquinolones to be 'potent' antibiotics and treated all patients with the same 14-day course. GPs implemented improvement strategies for antibiotic stewardship and followed the guidelines using a computerised decision support system. CONCLUSIONS: GPs' experiences of mUTIs are limited due to low exposure and variable clinical presentations in primary care, representing a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. In order to modify GPs' antibiotic prescribing behaviours, a paradigm shift in the guidelines will need to be proposed.KEY MESSAGESDefining a male urinary tract infection represents a diagnostic challenge for GPs.A diagnosis based on clinical evidence alone is insufficient and complementary tests are required.A male urinary tract infection is an unusual disease in primary care and suggests a more serious underlying condition.

RESUMO

Cystitis is an inflammation of the bladder that is most often caused by bacterial infection and is the most common urinary tract infection. This lower urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most frequently encountered infections in women in outpatient practice. The concept of the urobiome, the microbiome of the urinary tract, has recently emerged and has improved our comprehension of the physiopathology of UTI. Recent studies have highlighted the potential limits of additional examinations used in our clinical practice. The emergence of delayed therapy is a novelty in the treatment of lower UTI; it likely allows for an overall reduction in antibiotic consumption while remaining an effective treatment. Alternatives to antibiotic treatment exist but most have yet to be tested in sufficiently powered randomized trials.


La cystite est une inflammation de la vessie, le plus souvent provoquée par une infection bactérienne, et est l'infection urinaire (IU) la plus fréquente. Par ailleurs, l'infection urinaire basse (IUB) est l'infection la plus souvent rencontrée chez la femme dans la pratique ambulatoire. L'étude de l'urobiome, le microbiome du tractus urinaire, a permis des avancées dans la compréhension de la physiopathologie des IU. Des études ont mis en avant les possibles limites des examens complémentaires utilisés dans notre pratique clinique. L'émergence du traitement différé (Delayed Therapy) est une nouveauté dans le traitement des IUB, dans le sens où il permettrait de diminuer la consommation d'antibiotiques tout en restant un traitement efficace. Les alternatives au traitement antibiotique existent, mais la majorité doit encore être validée dans des essais randomisés de meilleure qualité.

RESUMO

BACKGROUNDS: Platelet-to-albumin ratio (PAR) is a new systemic inflammatory prognostic indicator associated with many inflammatory diseases. However, its role in radiation cystitis (RC) is obscure. This study aimed to explore whether PAR could be used as an effective parameter for predicting the RC risk in local advanced cervical cancer (CC) treated with radiotherapy. METHODS: A total of 319 local advanced CC patients who received radical radiotherapy at Fujian Cancer Hospital were enrolled between December 2018 and January 2021. Demographics and clinical parameters were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to identify the risk factors for RC. Backward and stepwise regression was applied to construct two monograms-one with primary significant factors and the other with extra inflammatory biomarkers. A DeLong test was applied to compare the prediction abilities of two nomograms. Calibration curves and decision curve analysis (DCA) evaluated its prediction consistency, discrimination ability, and clinical net benefit. RESULTS: Univariate analysis showed that age, tumor size, stage, total radiation dose, pelvic radiation dose, Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and PAR were significantly associated with RC occurrence (all p < 0.05). Multivariate analyses indicated that age, tumor size, stage, total radiation dose, and PAR were independent factors (all p < 0.05). Then, the area under curve (AUC) value of the nomogramSII+PAR was higher (AUC = 0.774) compared to that of the baseline nomogram (AUC = 0.726) (pDelong = 0.02). Also, the five-cross validation confirmed the stability of the nomogramSII+PAR. Moreover, the calibration curve and DCA exhibited the nomograms' good prediction consistency and clinical practicability. CONCLUSIONS: PAR and SII could be valued for CC patients who are treated with radiation therapy. The nomogram based on PAR and SII could stratify patients who need extra intervention and nursing care to prevent bladder radiation damage and improve patients' quality of life.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Chronic recurrent cystitis (CRC) is a complex multifaceted problem of modern uroinfectology. OBJECTIVE: To study the immunological parameters of urine in patients with chronic recurrent cystitis depending on the etiological factor. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The prospective study included 71 patients aged 20-45 years who had previously been diagnosed with recurrent lower urinary tract infection: chronic recurrent cystitis (CRC) during an exacerbation period. Based on the results of bacteriological and PCR studies of urine, scraping of the urethra and vagina, depending on the dominant etiological factor, the patients were divided into three groups: group 1 (n=30) - with papillomavirus CRC (PVI-CRC), group 2 (n=30) - with bacterial CRC (B - CRC), group 3 (n=11) - with candida CRC (C - CRC). Analysis of the assessment of immunological parameters of urine was carried out using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA-BEST). RESULTS: Based on the results of an immunological study of urine in the study groups, characteristic specific changes in the level of interleukins and interferons were identified, which made it possible to determine a protocol for the differential diagnosis of CRC. CONCLUSIONS: Our study shows the advisability of testing interleukins in urine (IL-1 beta, IL-6, IL-8); these indicators can serve as scoring criteria in the differential diagnosis of CRC of various origins. CONCLUSIONS: , it is reasonable to study the level of IFN-2b and IFN; when identifying the functional inferiority of the IFN system in women with CRC, correction of the IFN system is necessary.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: For the first time, the accuracy and proficiency of ChatGPT answers on urogenital tract infection (UTIs) were evaluated. METHODS: The study aimed to create two lists of questions: frequently asked questions (FAQs, public-based inquiries) on relevant topics, and questions based on guideline information (guideline-based inquiries). ChatGPT responses to FAQs and scientific questions were scored by two urologists and an infectious disease specialist. Quality and reliability of all ChatGPT answers were checked using the Global Quality Score (GQS). The reproducibility of ChatGPT answers was analyzed by asking each question twice. RESULTS: All in all, 96.2 % of FAQs (75/78 inquiries) related to UTIs were correctly and adequately answered by ChatGPT, and scored GQS 5. None of the ChatGPT answers were classified as GQS 2 and GQS 1. Moreover, FAQs about cystitis, urethritis, and epididymo-orchitis were answered by ChatGPT with 100 % accuracy (GQS 5). ChatGPT answers for EAU urological infections guidelines showed that 61 (89.7 %), 5 (7.4 %), and 2 (2.9 %) ChatGPT responses were scored GQS 5, GQS 4, and GQS 3, respectively. None of the ChatGPT responses for EAU urological infections guidelines were categorized as GQS 2 and GQS 1. Comparison of mean GQS values of ChatGPT answers for FAQs and EAU urological guideline questions showed that ChatGPT was similarly able to respond to both question groups (p = 0.168). The ChatGPT response reproducibility rate was highest for the FAQ subgroups of cystitis, urethritis, and epididymo-orchitis (100 % for each subgroup). CONCLUSION: The present study showed that ChatGPT gave accurate and satisfactory answers for both public-based inquiries, and EAU urological infection guideline-based questions. Reproducibility of ChatGPT answers exceeded 90% for both FAQs and scientific questions.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) is a devastating complication of bone marrow (BMT) and stem cell transplant (SCT). Much of the literature has focused on exclusively adult patient populations, with limited evidence regarding risk factors for mortality and morbidity among pediatric HC patients. OBJECTIVE: To examine factors associated with all-cause mortality in children with HC after BMT/SCT. METHODS: The Pediatric Health Information System database was queried for patients with ICD-9/10 codes for hematopoietic transplant and gross hematuria, hematuria unspecified, or cystitis with hematuria. Multivariable logistic regression examined association of medical and surgical interventions frequently employed for hemorrhagic cystitis with mortality and genitourinary morbidity, defined as having received instillation of any bladder medication or having undergone any genitourinary procedure. RESULTS: A total of 811 patients, mean age of 12.4 years and 62% male, were included. Primary diagnosis included 388 (49%) leukemia/lymphoma, 182 (22%) blood dyscrasia, 99 (12%) solid organ tumor, 27 (3%) metabolic disease, 115 (14%) unknown. Transplant type included 377 (46%) bone marrow, 329 (41%) stem cell, 105, and (13%) unknown. Performing any bladder instillation (p < 0.0001) or any type of GU procedure (p < 0.0001) was significantly associated with mortality. On multivariate analysis, dialysis (OR = 10.7, 95% CI = 5.7-20.2), genitourinary morbidity (OR = 4, 95% CI = 2.2-6.8) and intravenous cidofovir (OR = 2.0, 95% CI = 1.2-3.3) were significantly associated with all cause mortality. Having an underlying diagnosis of blood dyscrasia was protective against mortality (OR = 0.425, CI = 0.205-0.88). DISCUSSION: In this large retrospective study evaluating factors associated with mortality in children with HC, all cause mortality was found to be 11%. This is probably an underrepresentation of true mortality in this population, as many patients discharged from the hospital likely die outside the hospital at home or hospice care. This study supports the current literature that invasive GU procedures are not associated with increased survival in patients with severe HC. This study is limited by retrospective use of a billing database that has the potential for errors in data entry and missing data. Patients who were discharged from the hospital were not captured by the PHIS which only collects data from inpatient stays. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with HC who received dialysis, intravenous cidofovir, or underwent GU intervention had significantly higher all-cause mortality. High grade HC is a marker of disease severity and efforts should be made by urologists and oncologists to maximize quality of life and limit futile treatments in this patient population.

RESUMO

RATIONALE: Eosinophilic cystitis (EC) is a rare and specific transmural inflammatory disease in clinic. At present, its etiology is unknown, its clinical manifestations are diverse, and its auxiliary examination lacks specificity, so it is easy to be missed or misdiagnosed in clinical practice. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 72-year-old male patient with symptoms of lower urinary tract obstruction accompanied by hematuria was diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia with bleeding by B-ultrasound and urinary CT examination. After being treated with catheterization, anti-infection and hemostasis, he was selectively treated with transurethral resection of prostate, but he saw a pattern mass on the right back wall of the bladder during the operation. Considering bladder tumor, he removed the lesion and gave pirarubicin for bladder perfusion. However, the postoperative pathological result was EC. DIAGNOSIS: The diagnosis of EC can only rely on pathological examination, and the accurate and positive rate of biopsy can be improved by obtaining muscle tissue as much as possible at the same time of multi-point biopsy. INTERVENTION: Prednisone and cetirizine were given orally after transurethral resection of lesions, and tamsulosin and finasteride were given regularly to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia. OUTCOMES: No recurrence and abnormal urination were found during the follow-up for half a year, and the upper urinary tract function was normal. LESSONS: The clinical manifestations of EC are atypical, the laboratory examination and imaging examination are not specific, and it is difficult to make a definite diagnosis before operation. The diagnosis depends on pathological examination. Transurethral resection of the lesion can obviously improve the positive rate of biopsy while completely removing the lesion, and the combined drug treatment can achieve satisfactory results in a short period of time. Active follow-up after operation is very important to identify the recurrence of the disease and prevent the upper urinary tract function from being damaged.

RESUMO

Hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) is a highly impacting complication in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), occurring in 12%-37% of patients. The impact of transplant- and patient-specific variables has been described, with a possible role for JCV and BKV, which may be cooperating with cytomegalovirus (CMV). Here, we analyze 134 letermovir-exposed, CMV-free patients, treated with the same cyclophosphamide-based graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, describing risk factors for HC. The overall incidence of HC was 23%. Patients with HLA mismatched transplant, higher comorbidity score, and receiving three alkylating agents with TBF (thiotepa, busulfan, and fludarabine) conditioning regimen had a higher risk of HC in multivariate analysis (OR: 4.48, 6.32, and 1.32, respectively). A HC-score including male gender, TBF conditioning, and HLA-mismatch stratifies the risk of HC in the first 100 days after HSCT. The role of BKV and JCV was not highly impacting in those patients, suggesting a possible synergistic effect between CMV and JCV in causing HC. HC can be interpreted as the combination of patient-related factors, chemotherapy-related toxicities-especially due to alkylating agents-and immunological elements.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: To analyze the characteristics of early clinical symptoms of hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and the risk factors of severe HC. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 77 children with post-HSCT HC treated at our hospital between June 2013 and June 2021. Clinical characteristics were collected and catalogued. RESULTS: Among the children with urinary tract irritation symptoms (UTIS) as the first symptom, symptoms appeared earlier than hematuria symptoms (28 day vs. 31 day, p = 0.027), and the time progressing to severe HC was significantly longer in these children (12 day vs. 7 day, p = 0.038), but there was no significant difference in the number of participants (57.8% vs. 59.4%, p = 0.889). BK polyomavirus (BKV) infection was an independent risk factor (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.782, p = 0.035) for severe HC, which was also positively associated with multi-viral infection (HR = 2.215, p = 0.020). CONCLUSIONS: In HC children, when the first urinary tract symptom was UTIS, it appeared earlier than hematuria, and the time of progression to severe HC was significantly longer, suggesting that we still need more aggressive treatment for these children to prevent the worsening of symptoms. The severity of HC was positively correlated with BKV infection and multiple infections.

RESUMO

Urinary microbial diversities have been reported in humans according to sex, age and clinical status, including painful bladder syndrome/interstitial cystitis (PBS/IC). To date, the role of the urinary microbiome in the pathogenesis of PBS/IC is debated. Feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC) is a chronic lower urinary tract disorder affecting cats with similarities to PBS/IC in women and represents an important problem in veterinary medicine as its aetiology is currently unknown. In this study, the presence of a bacterial community residing in the urinary bladder of cats with a diagnosis of FIC was investigated. Nineteen cats with clinical signs and history of FIC and without growing bacteria in standard urine culture were included and urine collected with ultrasound-guided cystocentesis. Bacterial community was investigated using a culture-dependent approach consisted of expanded quantitative urine culture techniques and a culture-independent approach consisted of 16S rRNA NGS. Several methodological practices were adopted to both avoid and detect any contamination or bias introduced by means of urine collection and processing which could be relevant due to the low microbial biomass environment of the bladder and urinary tract, including negative controls analysis. All the cats included showed no growing bacteria in the urine analysed. Although few reads were originated using 16S rRNA NGS, a comparable pattern was observed between urine samples and negative controls, and no taxa were confidently classified as non-contaminant. The results obtained suggest the absence of viable bacteria and of bacterial DNA of urinary origin in the urinary bladder of cats with FIC.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Eosinophilic cystitis (EC) is rare in children and remains poorly understood. Our aim was to analyse the clinical and imaging features of eosinophilic cystitis in children. METHODS: A retrospective review of histologically confirmed eosinophilic cystitis between January 2008 and December 2022 was performed, including patient age, sex, symptoms, laboratory examination, radiology, treatment and outcome. RESULTS: Twelve children (two girls, 10 boys; age range: 3-12 years, mean age: 7.2 years) were included in the study. Urinary irritation symptoms (10/12), haematuria (5/12) and hypogastralgia (3/12) were the most common symptoms. Five patients had a history of allergies, six patients had elevated serum IgE, nine patients had elevated peripheral eosinophils and six patients had positive microscopic haematuria. Radiology revealed diffuse homogeneous or inhomogeneous thickening in seven patients, localised thickening in three patients, and solitary tumour-like lesions in the other two patients. Preservation of the mucosal line and bladder wall layering were observed in eleven patients, and perivesical exudation and small vessel dilatation were observed in ten patients. All four patients with delayed scans showed obvious delayed enhancement. One patient showed low signal intensity on T2-W imaging. All patients received antihistamine, antibiotic and/or corticosteroid therapy and two tumour-like patients underwent transurethral resection. Nine patients achieved complete response and three patients achieved partial response. CONCLUSION: The clinical and imaging manifestations of EC in children have relative characteristics; when urologist and radiologist confronted with similar cases, EC should be considered. The final diagnosis depends on pathological biopsy.

RESUMO

Objective: To investigate the gene mutation of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter in inverted urothelial lesions of the bladder and its significance in differential diagnosis. Methods: From March 2016 to February 2022, a total of 32 patients with inverted urothelial lesions diagnosed in Department of Pathology at Qingdao Chengyang People's Hospital and 24 patients at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were collected, including 7 cases of florid glandular cystitis, 13 cases of inverted urothelial papilloma, 8 cases of inverted urothelial neoplasm with low malignant potential, 17 cases of low-grade non-invasive inverted urothelial carcinoma, 5 cases of high-grade non-invasive inverted urothelial carcinoma, and 6 cases of nested subtype of urothelial carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed for their clinical data and histopathological features. TERT promoter mutations were analyzed by Sanger sequencing in all the cases. Results: No mutations in the TERT promoter were found in the florid glandular cystitis and inverted urothelial papilloma. The mutation rates of the TERT promoter in inverted urothelial neoplasm with low malignant potential, low grade non-invasive inverter urothelial carcinoma, high grade non-invasive inverted urothelial carcinoma and nested subtype urothelial carcinoma were 1/8, 8/17, 2/5 and 6/6, respectively. There was no significant difference in the mutation rate of TERT promoter among inverted urothelial neoplasm with low malignant potential, low-grade non-invasive inverted urothelial carcinoma, and high-grade non-invasive inverted urothelial carcinoma (P>0.05). All 6 cases of nested subtype of urothelial carcinoma were found to harbor the mutation, which was significantly different from inverted urothelial neoplasm with low malignant potential and non-invasive inverted urothelial carcinoma (P<0.05). In terms of mutation pattern, 13/17 of TERT promoter mutations were C228T, 4/17 were C250T. Conclusions: The morphology combined with TERT promoter mutation detection is helpful for the differential diagnosis of bladder non-invasive inverted urothelial lesions.

RESUMO

We report a rare case of cystitis cystica and glandularis mimicking low-grade urothelial carcinoma that was found incidentally and treated with resection and fulguration via transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). When early recurrence was found on surveillance cystoscopy 3 months later, the patient was treated with repeat TURBT and intravesical gemcitabine. Surveillance cystoscopy 4 months later revealed cystitis cystica and cystitis glandularis yet again. We highlight the diagnosis and management of multiple early recurrences of cystitis cystica in this patient, particularly our treatment with gemcitabine and close surveillance.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The problem of recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM 2) is relevant, especially when there is a combination of predisposing factors, such as female gender, history of UTI episodes, and therapy with sodium glucose cotransporter type 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, and the choice of effective and safe means could cause some difficulties, including ina terms of the burden of antibiotic resistance. AIM: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the phytoproduct Canephron® N for the prevention of exacerbations of recurrent cystitis and the effect on metabolic parameters in patients with type 2 diabetes taking SGLT-2 inhibitors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Prospective, randomized, open, parallel group study in 60 women. The main group took the drug Canephron® N for 3 months. The main parameters for evaluating were the frequency of recurrence of cystitis, level of albuminuria and LDL-cholesterol peroxidation product - malondialdehyde. RESULTS: Within 3 months of taking Canephron® N, exacerbations of chronic cystitis were diagnosed 2 times less often, a decrease in albuminuria was found in the form of an increase in the proportion of patients with an optimal level of albuminuria by 20%, a 50% reduction in the frequency of the initial increase in albuminuria, and the absence of moderate albuminuria in all patients at the end of course of therapy. A decrease in the level of MDA by 1.4 times was noted (p=0.019). CONCLUSION: Thus, the herbal drug Canephron® N can be used for accompanying therapy and prophylactic treatment in patients with recurrent cystitis on the background of DM 2, taking SGLT-2 inhibitors. The course of therapy should last at least 3 months.

RESUMO

Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) is an up-to-date therapy for cancer with a promising efficacy, but it may cause unique immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Although irAEs could affect any organ, irAEs-induced whole urinary tract expansion was rarely reported. Herein, we reported a 27-year-old male patient with thymic carcinoma who received the treatment of tislelizumab, paclitaxel albumin and carboplatin. He was hospitalized for severe bellyache and lumbago after 6 courses of treatment. Antibiotic and antispasmodic treatment did not relieve his symptoms. The imaging examinations reported whole urinary tract expansion and cystitis. Therefore, we proposed that the patient's pain was caused by tislelizumab-induced ureteritis/cystitis. After the discontinuation of tislelizumab and the administration of methylprednisolone, his symptoms were markedly alleviated. Herein, we reported a rare case of ICI-induced ureteritis/cystitis in the treatment of thymic cancer and reviewed other cases of immunotherapy-related cystitis and tislelizumab-related adverse events, which will provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of ICI-related irAEs.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND Emphysematous cystitis is a rare urologic condition typically characterized by abdominal pain, hematuria, and dysuria. In some cases, complications such as bladder rupture, necrosis, and septic shock have been reported. Emphysematous cystitis has been associated with several predisposing medical conditions, such as diabetes mellitus, recurrent urinary tract infections, and immunosuppression, but can also infrequently present in an undifferentiated fashion without these aforementioned risk factors, such as in our patient's case. CASE REPORT We describe a rare case of emphysematous cystitis in a 67-year-old woman presenting to the Emergency Department with hematuria. The patient's presenting symptoms also included severe lower abdominal pain and dysuria. Examination revealed suprapubic tenderness and gross hematuria. Imaging revealed gas within the bladder lumen and throughout the bladder wall. Radiography showed concerns for emphysematous cystitis, without evidence of bladder fistula formation with adjacent bowel loops or cysto-vaginal fistula. After consultation with the Urology Department, the patient was admitted for serial examinations, intravenous antibiotics, and continued monitoring. The patient was discharged in good condition after a 3-day hospitalization. CONCLUSIONS Clinicians evaluating patients for acute urologic symptoms should be alert to the possible diagnosis of emphysematous cystitis, given the potential for deterioration and concomitant complications. Although our patient's presentation included no traditional risk factors for emphysematous cholecystitis, she required hospitalization to ensure progressive improvement. Therefore, prompt management along with appropriate consultation with specialists are crucial to mitigate the risk of adverse outcomes in this rare urologic emergency.
