RESUMEN
IMPORTANCE: Nocturia is a significant symptom in overactive bladder with little data regarding the impact of overactive bladder treatments on nocturia. OBJECTIVES: Compare the effect of anticholinergic (AC) medication, onabotulinum toxin A (BTX), and sacral neuromodulation (SNM) on nocturia. STUDY DESIGN: Secondary analysis of the ABC and ROSETTA trials using data from the National Institutes of Health Data and Specimen Hub database. Patients reporting mean ≥2 voids/night on 3-day diary were included and divided into cohorts by treatment: the ABC trial: (1) AC and (2) BTX 100 units, and the ROSETTA trial: (3) BTX 200 units and (4) SNM. Primary outcome was change in mean voids/night on 3-day diary from baseline to 6 months assessed by mixed-effects models for repeated-measures data with interaction between treatment cohort and time included in model. RESULTS: A total of 197 patients were included: 43 (22%) AC, 37 (19%) BTX 100 U, 63 (32%) BTX 200 U, and 54 (27%) SNM. There were no significant differences in baseline voids/night, demographics, or urodynamic values except for younger age in AC and BTX 100 U cohorts (P = 0.04). At 6 months, all cohorts demonstrated a mean 41% decrease in mean voids/night (2.7 ± 0.4 at baseline to 1.6 ± 0.5 at 6 months; P < 0.001), with no significant difference in change in mean voids/night between treatment cohorts (decrease of 44% in AC, 46% in 100 U BTX, 32% 200 in U BTX, and 33% in SNM; P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: For women with nocturia ≥2/night, treatment with AC, BTX 100 or 200 units, or SNM led to a significant decrease in voids/night at 6 months.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: To our knowledge, there are no evidence-based recommendations regarding the optimal prophylactic antibiotic regimen for intradetrusor onabotulinum toxin type A (BTX) injections. This systematic review and meta-analysis was aimed at investigating the optimal prophylactic antibiotic regimen to decrease urinary tract infection (UTI) in patients undergoing BTX for overactive bladder syndrome (OAB). METHODS: A systematic search of MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, and Web of Science was conducted from inception through 30 June 2022. All randomized controlled trials and prospective trials with > 20 subjects undergoing BTX injections for OAB in adults that described prophylactic antibiotic regimens were included. Meta-analysis performed to assess UTI rates in patients with idiopathic OAB using the inverse variance method for pooling. RESULTS: A total of 27 studies (9 randomized controlled trials, 18 prospective) were included, representing 2,100 patients (69% women) with 19 studies of idiopathic OAB patients only, 6 of neurogenic only, and 2 including both. No studies directly compared antibiotic regimens for the prevention of UTI. Included studies favor the use of antibiotics in patients with idiopathic OAB and favor continuing antibiotics for 2-3 days after the procedure for prevention of UTI. Given the heterogeneity of the data, direct comparisons of antibiotic type or duration could not be performed. Meta-analysis found a 10% UTI rate at 4 weeks and 15% at 12 weeks post-injection. CONCLUSIONS: Although there are insufficient data to support the use of a specific antibiotic regimen, available studies favor the use of prophylactic antibiotics for 2-3 days in idiopathic OAB patients undergoing BTX injection. Future trials are needed to determine the optimal regimens to prevent UTI in patients undergoing BTX for OAB.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Prior studies demonstrate mixed results on the impact of obesity on the success of midurethral slings (MUS), with little known about how postoperative weight change affects outcomes. We aimed to examine the effect of postoperative weight change on outcomes 12 months after MUS for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). METHODS: This secondary analysis utilized data from two multicenter randomized trials of women undergoing MUS placement. Subjects were categorized into cohorts based on change in body weight at 12 months postoperatively: weight gain (≥5% increase); weight loss (≥5% decrease), and weight stable (<5% change). The primary outcome was SUI cure (no SUI episodes in a 3-day bladder diary). Patients with mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) were analyzed for changes in daily average urge incontinence (UUI) episodes in a 3-day diary. Penalized logistic regression assessed the impact of demographic and perioperative variables on the primary outcome. RESULTS: Of the 918 women included, 635 (70%) were weight stable, 144 (15%) had weight gain, and 139 (15%) had weight loss. Patients in the weight loss cohort had a higher smoking rate and a higher baseline body mass index (SD 0.29, 2.7 respectively). All cohorts experienced high SUI cure rates ranging from 77 to 81%, with no significant difference in SUI cure between cohorts (p = 0.607). Of 372 subjects with MUI, the weight loss cohort had significantly greater improvement in UUI episodes. CONCLUSIONS: Weight change at 12 months postoperatively did not significantly alter efficacy of MUS for treatment of SUI. Patients with MUI who lost ≥5% body weight had significantly greater improvement in UUI episodes.

BACKGROUND: Trichomoniasis is the most prevalent nonviral sexually transmitted infection in the United States. Numerous studies have shown disproportionately higher prevalence rates in non-Hispanic Black women. Because of the high rates of reinfection, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends retesting women treated for trichomoniasis. Despite these national guidelines, there are few studies examining adherence to retesting recommendations for patients with trichomoniasis. Adherence to retesting guidelines has been shown in other infections to be an important determinant of racial disparities. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to describe Trichomonas vaginalis infection rates, evaluate adherence to retesting guidelines, and examine characteristics of women who were not retested according to the guidelines in an urban, diverse, hospital-based obstetrics and gynecology clinic population. STUDY DESIGN: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients from a single hospital-based obstetrics and gynecology clinic who were tested for Trichomonas vaginalis between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2019. Descriptive statistics were used to examine guideline-concordant testing for reinfection among patients with trichomoniasis. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify characteristics associated with testing positive and with appropriate retesting. Subgroup analyses were performed for patients who were pregnant and tested positive for Trichomonas vaginalis. RESULTS: Among the 8809 patients tested for Trichomonas vaginalis, 799 (9.1%) tested positive at least once during the study. Factors associated with trichomoniasis included identifying as non-Hispanic Black (adjusted odds ratio, 3.13; 95% confidence interval, 2.52-3.89), current or former tobacco smoking (adjusted odds ratio, 2.27; 95% confidence interval, 1.94-2.65), and single marital status (adjusted odds ratio, 1.96; 95% confidence interval, 1.51-2.56). Similar associated factors were found in the pregnant subgroup analysis. For women with trichomoniasis, guideline-concordant retesting rates were low across the entire population, with only 27% (214/799) of patients retested within the recommended time frame; 42% (82/194) of the pregnant subgroup underwent guideline-concordant retesting. Non-Hispanic Black women had significantly lower odds of undergoing guideline-recommended retesting than non-Hispanic White women (adjusted odds ratio, 0.54; 95% confidence interval, 0.31-0.92). Among patients tested according to guideline recommendations, we found a high rate of Trichomonas vaginalis positivity at retesting: 24% in the entire cohort (51/214) and 33% in the pregnant subgroup (27/82). CONCLUSION: Trichomonas vaginalis infection was identified at a high frequency in a diverse, urban hospital-based obstetrics and gynecology clinic population. Opportunities exist to improve on equitable and guideline-concordant retesting of patients with trichomoniasis.
