RESUMO
PURPOSE: Chronic idiopathic urinary retention (CIUR) in young women is poorly understood and a probable etiology is established only in around 40%, most commonly a primary disorder of external urethral sphincter relaxation, sometimes referred to as Fowler's syndrome. A high prevalence of psychological and functional comorbidities is reported, however these have been poorly characterized. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Women consecutively referred for the assessment and management of CIUR were evaluated cross-sectionally for 13 psychological/behavioral domains using a structured clinical interview: depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), other psychiatric history, functional neurological disorder, other functional syndromes, childhood and adult trauma, personality disorder, and self-harm (ever/current). RESULTS: A total of 91 women (mean age [SD]: 34 [11] years) were evaluated. Women with Fowler's syndrome (n = 69) were younger (mean age [SD]: 32 [9] vs 40 [13] years) than women without Fowler's syndrome and reported shorter mean duration of urinary symptoms (mean [SD]: 5 [6] vs 10 [9]). A high prevalence of psychiatric and psychological comorbidities was reported (97%) including current depression (77%), current anxiety (78%), and PTSD (32%). A high prevalence of functional neurological disorder (56%) and other functional symptoms (65%) was also reported. Self-harm was reported in (14%) and personality disorder in 16%. Childhood trauma was reported in 35% of women. CONCLUSIONS: Young women with CIUR report a high burden of psychiatric disorders, affective symptoms, trauma, PTSD, self-harm, and functional neurological disorder, particularly in those with Fowler's syndrome. These factors can undermine the engagement with health care professionals and affect management and should therefore be addressed during the urological assessment.

OBJECTIVES: Radical hysterectomy is the standard of care for management of early-stage cervical cancer and is associated with postoperative urinary retention. No clear consensus exists regarding optimal voiding trial methodology for mitigating postoperative urinary retention. Our objective was to evaluate the association between type of postoperative voiding trial and risk of urinary retention after radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients undergoing radical hysterectomy for apparent early-stage cervical cancer (FIGO 2018 Stage IA2-IB2) between January 2014 and February 2023. We compared incidence of urinary retention and perioperative outcomes based on method of postoperative voiding trial (timed, autofill, or backfill). Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine association of type of void trial with absence of urinary retention within 30 days postoperatively. RESULTS: Of the 115 patients identified, 48 (41.8%) patients completed a timed void trial, 40 (34.7%) an autofill void trial, and 27 (23.5%) a backfill void trial. 44.3% of patients developed postoperative urinary retention with no differences based on void trial (p = 0.17). Urinary retention was more likely to resolve by 7 (p = 0.012) and 30 days (p = 0.01) for patients undergoing backfill voiding trials, compared to other trials. In multivariate models, backfill void trial was associated with absence of 30-day urinary retention, compared to other trials (aOR 15.1; 95% C.I. 1.5-154.9). CONCLUSIONS: Rates of urinary retention following radical hysterectomy do not differ based on postoperative void trial methodology. A backfill void trial following radical hysterectomy may lead to increased rates of resolution of postoperative urinary retention.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Midurethral slings are the gold standard for treating stress urinary incontinence, but their complications may raise concerns. Complications may differ by the approach used to place them. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare serious complications and reoperations for recurrence after midurethral sling procedures when using the retropubic vs the transobturator route for female stress urinary incontinence. STUDY DESIGN: This analysis was of patients included in the French, multicenter VIGI-MESH register since February 2017 who received a midurethral sling for female stress urinary incontinence either by the retropubic or the transobturator route and excluded patients with single-incision slings. Follow-up continued until October 2021. Serious complications (Clavien-Dindo classification ≥ grade III) attributable to the midurethral sling and reoperations for recurrence were compared using Cox proportional hazard models including any associated surgery (hysterectomy or prolapse) and a frailty term to consider the center effect. Baseline differences were balanced by propensity score weighting. Analyses using the propensity score and Cox models were adjusted for baseline differences, center effect, and associated surgery. RESULTS: A total of 1830 participants received a retropubic sling and 852 received a transobturator sling in 27 French centers that were placed by 167 surgeons. The cumulative 2-year estimate of serious complications was 5.8% (95% confidence interval, 4.8-7.0) in the retropubic group and 2.9% (95% confidence interval, 1.9-4.3) in the transobturator group, that is, after adjustment, half of the retropubic group was affected (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.41; 95% confidence interval, 0.3-0.6). The cumulative 2-year estimate of reoperation for recurrence of stress urinary incontinence was 2.7% (95% confidence interval, 2.0-3.6) in the retropubic group and 2.8% (95% confidence interval, 1.7-4.2) in the transobturator group with risk for revision for recurrence being higher in the transobturator group after adjustment (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-2.9); this surplus risk disappeared after exclusion of the patients with a previous surgery for stress urinary incontinence. CONCLUSION: The transobturator route for midurethral sling placement is associated with a lower risk for serious complications but a higher risk for surgical reoperation for recurrence than the retropubic route. Despite the large number of surgeons involved, these risks were low. The data are therefore reassuring.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the data comparing single- vs multi-use catheters for clean intermittent catheterisation (CIC), consider if the widespread use of single-use catheters is warranted given the cost and environmental impact, and put forth ideas for future consideration. METHODS: A primary literature review was performed in PubMed over the past 50 years. Studies that performed comparative analysis of single- and multi-use catheters were included in our review. All studies that reported on primary data were narratively summarised. RESULTS: A total of 11 studies were identified that reported on primary data comparing single- and multi-use catheters. There was no appreciable evidence suggesting reusable multi-use catheters were inferior to single-use catheters from an infection or usability standpoint. In addition, the environmental and monetary burden of single-use catheters is significant. CONCLUSIONS: The intermittent catheter landscape in the USA has a complex past: defined by policy, shaped by industry, yet characterised by a paucity of data demonstrating superiority of single-use over multi-use catheters. We believe that the aversion to reusable catheters by many patients and healthcare professionals is unwarranted, especially given the cost and environmental impact. Moving forward, better comparative data and more sustainable practices are needed.

BACKGROUND: Transperineal Prostate Biopsy (TPB) is a commonly used technique for the diagnosis of prostate cancer due to growing concerns related to infectious complications associated with transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy (TRUSB). TPB is associated with an infective complication rate of near zero, however, acute urinary retention (AUR) remains the leading complication causing morbidity. Previously in TRUSB, there was weak evidence that alpha-blockers reduce AUR rates, and their usage has been extrapolated to clinical practice with TPB. This review aims to explore if there is an evidence base for using alpha-blockers to prevent AUR following TPB. METHODS: A systematic approach was used to search Ovid Medline and Embase using keywords related to "Transperineal" and "Retention". Articles were then screened by applying inclusion and exclusion criteria to find studies that compared alpha-blocker recipients to no alpha-blocker use in the perioperative period and the subsequent effect on AUR in TPB. RESULTS: 361 records were identified in the initial search to produce 5 studies included in the final review. No randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were identified. One observational study showed a reduction in AUR rate from 12.5% to 5.3% with a single dose of tamsulosin. A previous systematic review of complications associated with prostate biopsy concluded there may be a potential benefit to alpha-blockers given in the TPB perioperative period. Three observational studies demonstrated a harmful effect related to alpha-blocker use; however, this was well explained by their clear limitations. CONCLUSION: Based on this review and the extrapolation from TRUSB data, perioperative alpha-blockers may offer some weak benefits in preventing AUR following TPB. However, there is significant scope and need for an RCT to further develop the evidence base further given the significant gap in the literature and lack of a standard alpha blocker protocol in TPB.

BACKGROUND: As disseminated extrapulmonary tuberculosis infection can involve multiple systems and result in atypical clinical manifestations that mimic other diseases, the diagnosis may be difficult, especially in elderly patients. Delaying treatment can adversely affect the prognosis. And to achieve better prognosis, early detection and diagnosis are necessary, as well as early initiation of comprehensive treatment. CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of a 78-year-old man with disseminated tuberculosis who developed the uncommon complication of urinary retention due to a psoas abscess, meningoencephalitis, and the rare secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis syndrome. The patient achieved a favorable outcome following targeted therapy with antitubercular medications. CONCLUSIONS: This case highlights that disseminated extrapulmonary tuberculosis infection can present with a variety of manifestations, and may exhibit many rare and complex clinical presentations. Prompt and accurate diagnosis and treatment play a crucial role in improving prognosis for the patients with persistent fever.

OBJECTIVE: The impact of first stage labour duration on maternal outcomes is sparsely investigated. We aimed to study the association between a longer active first stage and maternal complications in the early postpartum period. DESIGN: A population-based cohort study. SETTING: Regions of Stockholm and Gotland, Sweden, 2008-2020. POPULATION: A cohort of 159 459 term, singleton, vertex pregnancies, stratified by parity groups. METHODS: The exposure was active first stage duration, categorised in percentiles. Poisson regression analysis was performed to estimate the adjusted relative risk (aRR) and the 95% confidence interval (95% CI). To investigate the effect of second stage duration on the outcome, mediation analysis was performed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Severe perineal lacerations (third or fourth degree), postpartum infection, urinary retention and haematoma in the birth canal or ruptured sutures. RESULTS: The risks of severe perineal laceration, postpartum infection and urinary retention increased with a longer active first stage, both overall and stratified by parity group. The aRR increased with a longer active first stage, using duration of <50th percentile as the reference. In the ≥90th percentile category, the aRR for postpartum infection was 1.64 (95% CI 1.46-1.84) in primiparous women, 2.43 (95% CI 1.98-2.98) in parous women with no previous caesarean delivery (CD) and 2.33 (95% CI 1.65-3.28) in parous women with a previous CD. The proportion mediated by second stage duration was 33.4% to 36.9% for the different outcomes in primiparous women. The risk of haematoma or ruptured sutures did not increased with a longer active first stage. CONCLUSIONS: Increasing active first stage duration is associated with maternal complications in the early postpartum period.

INTRODUCTION: Incontinence impacts the quality-of-life of people suffering from the disease. However, there is limited information on the prevalence of incontinence due to the stigma, lack of awareness, and underdiagnosis. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of overactive bladder (OAB) and nonobstructive urinary retention (NOUR). METHODS: The authors conducted a systematic review following the PRISMA guidelines using Embase, MEDLINE, and PubMed databases to identify the relevant publications in the English language. Two reviewers independently assessed the articles and extracted the data. Review papers were assessed for content and references. A meta-analysis of proportions was conducted using the RStudio software. To address the age heterogeneity, a subanalysis was conducted. Pooled data were overlayed on the Canadian population and a sample of 10 populous countries to estimate the number of people suffering from incontinence. RESULTS: Twenty-eight and eight articles were selected for OAB and NOUR, respectively. The pooled prevalence of OAB in men and women was 12% (95% CI: 9%-16%) and 15% (95% CI: 12%-18%), respectively. The estimated prevalence of NOUR was 15.6%-26.1% of men over 60 and 9.3%-20% of women over 60. The subanalysis pooled prevalence of OAB in men and women was 11% (95% CI: 8%-15%) and 12% (95% CI: 9%-16%), respectively. We estimated that 1.4-2.5 million women and 1.3-2.2 million men suffer from OAB in Canada. CONCLUSION: Urinary incontinence is an under-reported and underdiagnosed prevalent condition that requires appropriate treatment to improve a patient's quality-of-life.

AIMS: The aim of this study is to examine the association between diabetes mellitus and postoperative urinary retention on cerebral angiography (including intravascular interventional therapy). METHODS: We collected data on the demographic characteristics and comorbidities, imaging and routine laboratory data, surgical information, and medications of patients who underwent cerebral angiography. Multivariate logistic regression was used to explore the correlation between diabetes and the incidence of postoperative urinary retention. RESULTS: A total of 932 patients were included, with a mean age of 59.7 years (74.1% men). Postoperative urinary retention occurred in 40.8% of the diabetes mellitus group and 30.3% of the group without diabetes. Compared with the group without diabetes, those with diabetes were more likely to experience postoperative urinary retention. Patients with higher glycosylated hemoglobin A1c levels had a higher risk of developing postoperative urinary retention. CONCLUSIONS: Diabetes was independently linked to postoperative urinary retention following cerebral angiography and patients with glycosylated hemoglobin A1c levels > 6% were more likely to experience postoperative urinary retention. Therefore, clinically regulating blood glucose levels may help to reduce the likelihood of postoperative urinary retention after cerebral angiography.

AIMS: To confirm the improved performance of the micro-hole zone catheter (MHZC) compared to a conventional eyelet catheter (CEC) in male users of clean intermittent catheterizations (CICs). METHODS: Male self-catheterizing subjects, who used hydrophilic sleeved soft/flexible CIC as the only bladder emptying method, were enrolled into a multi-center, randomized, cross-over study performed across six European sites. Subjects tested the MHZC, featuring a drainage zone with 120 micro-holes and a CEC with two eyelets. The study consisted of four study visits (V0-V3), during which endpoints related to catheter performance (urinary flow-stops, bladder emptying, and intra-catheter pressure) were measured and two 4-week test periods at home (T1 and T2) where dipstick hematuria and user perception between catheters were evaluated. RESULTS: Seventy-three male subjects with non-neurogenic and neurogenic bladder dysfunction (3:2) were enrolled. On average, catheterizations with the MHZC led to close to mean zero flow-stops compared to ≥1 flow-stops with the CEC, during both HCP- and self-led catheterizations (both p < 0.001). Residual urine at first flow-stop was significantly reduced for the MHZC compared to CEC (p = 0.001 and p = 0.004, for HCP- and self-led catheterizations, respectively). This was substantiated by a significantly smaller pressure peak at first flow-stop, a proxy for minimized mucosal suction (both HCP- and self-led catheterizations, p < 0.001). After home-use catheterizations, dipstick hematuria was comparable between catheters, whereas catheterizations were associated with significantly improved perception in favor of MHZC regarding bladder emptying, less blocking sensation, and improved hygienic catheterization compared to the CEC. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed the evidence of improved bladder emptying with the MHZC compared to a CEC without the need to reposition the catheter. The MHZC therefore offers an enhanced benefit for the dependent CIC user securing complete bladder emptying in an uninterrupted free flow and reducing the need to reposition the catheter during emptying.

BACKGROUND: Intrathecal morphine provides effective analgesia for a range of operations. However, widespread implementation into clinical practice is hampered by concerns for potential side-effects. We undertook a systematic review, meta-analysis, and meta-regression with the primary objective of determining whether a threshold dose for non-pulmonary complications could be defined and whether an association could be established between dose and complication rates when intrathecal morphine is administered for perioperative or obstetric analgesia. METHODS: We systematically searched the literature for randomised controlled trials comparing intrathecal morphine vs control in patients undergoing any type of surgery under general or spinal anaesthesia, or women in labour. Primary outcomes were rates of postoperative nausea and vomiting, pruritus, and urinary retention within the first 24 postoperative hours, analysed according to doses (1-100 µg; 101-200 µg; 201-500 µg; >500 µg), type of surgery, and anaesthetic strategy. Trials were excluded if doses were not specified. RESULTS: Our analysis included 168 trials with 9917 patients. The rates of postoperative nausea and vomiting, pruritus, and urinary retention were significantly increased in the intrathecal morphine group, with an odds ratio (95% confidence interval) of 1.52 (1.29-1.79), P<0.0001; 6.11 (5.25-7.10), P<0.0001; and 1.73 (1.17-2.56), P=0.005, respectively. Meta-regression could not establish an association between dose and rates of non-pulmonary complications. There was no subgroup difference according to surgery for any outcome. The quality of evidence was low (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation [GRADE] system). CONCLUSIONS: Intrathecal morphine significantly increased postoperative nausea and vomiting, pruritus, and urinary retention after surgery or labour in a dose-independent manner. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW PROTOCOL: PROSPERO (CRD42023387838).
RESUMO
Neurogenic bladder (NGB) is an encompassing term that includes multiple causes of bladder dysfunction linked to a congenital or acquired neurological condition that adversely impacts the innervation of the lower urinary tract. Multiple static or progressive conditions can be associated with NGB in pediatric and adolescent patients. Currently, spinal dysraphism (i.e., spina bifida) is one of the most common etiologies, which occurs in 3-4 per 10,000 live births in developed nations. Abnormal bladder dynamics can lead to kidney damage secondary to high pressures or recurrent infections, as well as urinary incontinence. The current management paradigm centers on a proactive approach to preserving kidney function and achieving continence through behavioral, pharmacological, and surgical means. This educational review highlights the key components of urological management to maximize collaboration with pediatric nephrologists.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Postpartum urinary retention is one of the most common complications in women during the immediate postpartum period. The objective was to systematically assess risk factors for postpartum urinary retention after vaginal delivery. METHODS: Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses, we retrieved relevant studies from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science Core Collection, China National Knowledge Internet, Wangfang Database, and Chinese Biomedical Database for observational studies investigating the risk factors for postpartum urinary retention from inception to 11 November 2022. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and Joanna Briggs Institute's tool were used to assess the risk of bias. We conducted a meta-analysis using RevMan 5.3. RESULTS: In total, 3,074 articles were screened and data from 27 studies were used in the meta-analysis. Sixteen risk factors were identified, namely, labor augmentation (OR = 1.72, 95% CI = 1.17-2.51), primiparity (OR = 2.36, 95% CI = 1.64-3.38), manual fundal pressure (OR = 2.84, 95% CI = 1.00-8.11), perineal hematoma (OR = 7.28, 95% CI = 1.62-32.72), vulvar edema (OR = 7.99, 95% CI = 5.50-11.63), the total duration of labor (MD = 90.10, 95% CI = 49.11-131.08), the duration of the first stage of labor (MD = 33.97, 95% CI = 10.28-57.65), the duration of the second stage of labor (MD = 14.92, 95% CI = 11.79-18.05), the duration of the second stage of labor > 60 min (OR = 3.18, 95% CI = 1.32-7.67), mediolateral episiotomy (OR = 3.65, 95% CI = 1.70-7.83), severe perineal tear (OR = 3.21, 95% CI = 1.84-5.61), epidural analgesia (OR = 3.23, 95% CI = 1.50-6.96), forceps delivery (OR = 4.95, 95% CI = 2.88-8.51), vacuum delivery (OR = 2.44, 95% CI = 1.30-4.58), neonatal birth weight > 4,000 g (OR = 3.61, 95% CI = 1.96-6.65), and neonatal birth weight > 3,500 g (OR = 1.89, 95% CI = 1.12-3.19). CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrated that labor augmentation, primiparity, manual fundal pressure, perineal hematoma, vulvar edema, the total duration of labor, the duration of the first stage of labor, the duration of the second stage of labor, the duration of the second stage of labor > 60 min, mediolateral episiotomy, severe perineal tear, epidural analgesia, forceps delivery, vacuum delivery, and neonatal birth weight > 4,000 g and > 3,500 g were risk factors for postpartum urinary retention in women with vaginal delivery. The specific ranges of the first and the second stages of labor causing postpartum urinary retention need to be clarified.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Catheterization is a common treatment for postpartum urinary retention (PUR); however, its application before diagnosis of PUR remains unclear. The aim was to give an overview of the existing literature on the effectiveness and safety of intrapartum or postpartum catheterization in the prevention of PUR. METHODS: This scoping review followed a methodological framework. PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, Web of Science, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang, the China Science and Technology Journal Database, and the China Biomedical Literature Database were searched from the inception of each database to 21 May 2023. RESULTS: The search revealed 16 studies examining three different catheterization methodologies, including 12 intrapartum studies. Ten studies concluded that intrapartum or postpartum catheterization prevented PUR, two of which were only for overt or covert PUR. In 4 out of 13 experimental studies, no significant difference was found: one for intrapartum catheterization versus routine nursing, the other for intrapartum or postpartum intermittent versus indwelling catheterization. However, one found that postpartum disposable catheterization after ineffective targeted care reduced the incidence of PUR compared with indwelling catheterization. One out of the 3 case-control studies concluded that prenatal catheterization ≥2 times was a risk factor for PUR. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the findings in this scoping review, catheterization prior to the diagnosis of PUR appears to play a role in preventing PUR and is safe. Preliminary evidence is accumulating on the effectiveness of three types of catheterization methods in preventing PUR, but more comprehensive studies are needed to establish these findings.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Women who have intraspinal anesthesia for delivery are more likely to experience postpartum urinary retention (PUR), which, if not recognized and treated promptly, can result in long-term urinary dysfunction. Many factors influencing PUR have been proposed, but no study has been conducted to investigate the relationship between them. This study is aimed at determining the influencing factors of PUR and to explore the relationship between them. METHODS: A prospective, cross-sectional survey using self-made questionnaires was conducted among 372 puerperae in a Grade A hospital in Guangzhou, China, from April to September 2022. SPSS25.0 and AMOS24.0 were used for data analysis, and a path analysis model was established to determine the relationship between the influencing factors. RESULTS: The incidence of PUR was 49.85%. Residence, the level of postpartum pain, and the change of postnatal urination position had a direct effect on PUR. Episiotomy and analgesic duration have both direct and indirect effects on PUR. Forceps delivery, perineal edema and oxytocin had an indirect effect on PUR. Variables could influence the occurrence of PUR by mediating the analgesic duration, episiotomy, postpartum pain level, and postnatal urination position changes. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides an empirical model to illustrate the relationship between PUR and related factors in women who delivered under intraspinal anesthesia. In future management, more attention should be paid to women who live in cities, have higher levels of postpartum pain, longer analgesic duration, higher grade of perineal edema, and received episiotomy, forceps delivery, and oxytocin during labor.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: This study was carried out to investigate the effect of low-frequency pulsed electrotherapy combined with acupoint massage on postpartum urinary retention (PUR). METHODS: The patients were divided into control group, intervention group 1, and intervention group 2 according to the nursing method. The control group received conventional postpartum care, intervention group 1 received conventional postpartum care and low frequency pulsed electrotherapy, and intervention group 2 received conventional postpartum care, low-frequency pulsed electrotherapy, and Shuidao point massage. The bladder function, comfort score, and quality of life score before and after intervention were compared among the three groups. RESULTS: The bladder function, comfort level, and quality of life of intervention group 1 and intervention group 2 after nursing were significantly better than those of the control group. In addition, intervention group 2 had better bladder function than intervention group 1, with lower residual urine volume and higher bladder compliance. In the Kolcaba score, the mental dimension of intervention group 2 was significantly higher than that of intervention group 1. In terms of QOL scores, the social function, physical function, and state of material life scores of intervention group 2 were significantly higher than those of intervention group 1. CONCLUSIONS: Low-frequency pulsed electrotherapy combined with acupoint massage can significantly improve the bladder function, comfort, and quality of life of patients with PUR.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Many patients develop bladder symptoms after radical hysterectomy. This study compared urinary outcomes following radical hysterectomy based on trial of void (TOV) timing (pre-discharge TOV versus post-discharge TOV). METHODS: A retrospective non-inferiority study of patients at two academic tertiary referral centers who underwent radical hysterectomy between January 2010 and January 2020 was carried out. Patients were stratified according to timing of postoperative TOV: either pre-discharge or post-discharge from the hospital. Short-term urinary outcomes (including passing TOV, representation with retention) and long-term de novo urinary dysfunction (defined as irritative voiding symptoms, urgency, frequency, nocturia, stress or urgency incontinence, neurogenic bladder, and/or urinary retention) were extracted from the medical record. We hypothesized that the proportion of patients who failed pre-discharge TOV would be within a 15% non-inferiority margin of post-discharge TOV. RESULTS: A total of 198 patients underwent radical hysterectomy for cervical (118 out of 198; 59.6%), uterine (36 out of 198; 18.2%), and ovarian (29 out of 198; 14.6%) cancer. One hundred and nineteen patients (119 out of 198, 60.1%) underwent pre-discharge TOV, of whom 14 out of 119 (11.8%) failed. Of the post-discharge TOV patients (79 out of 198, 39.9%), 5 out of 79 (6.3%) failed. The proportion of patients who failed a pre-discharge TOV was within the non-inferiority margin (5.4% difference, p = 0.23). A greater proportion of patients in the post-discharge TOV group developed long-term de novo urinary dysfunction (27.2% difference, p = 0.005). Median time to diagnosis of de novo urinary dysfunction was 0.5 years (range 0-9) in the pre-discharge TOV group versus 1.0 year (range 0-6) in the post-discharge TOV group (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In this study, pre-discharge TOV had non-inferior short-term outcomes and improved long-term outcomes.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: We aimed to determine the incidence and risk factors for post-operative urinary retention (POUR) following surgery for perineal tears, and to determine the time to normal voiding after POUR. METHODS: This was a prospective cohort study of women who underwent surgery for old (≥ 3 months) obstetric perineal tears from January 2022 to December 2023. The diagnosis of POUR was made in a woman who completely failed to void despite a full bladder or, one who had post-void residual (PVR) > 150 ml within 10 min of voiding. Return to normal voiding was considered if a patient with POUR had two consecutive PVRs of ≤ 150 ml. Descriptive analyses and multivariable logistic regression were performed to determine risk factors for POUR. RESULTS: A total of 153 participants were enrolled in this study with a mean age of 35.9 (SD ± 10.8) years. The incidence of POUR was 19.6% (30/153, 95% CI 14.02-26.7), and the median time to normal voiding for these patients was 42.4 h (range 24-72). Risk factors for POUR included repeat perineal tear surgery (RR = 4.24; 95% CI 1.16-15.52; p = 0.029) and early urinary catheter removal (RR = 2.89; 95% CI 1.09-7.67; p = 0.033). CONCLUSION: Post-operative urinary retention following surgery for perineal tears is common. The time to return to normal voiding in patients with POUR is short. Women having repeat perineal tear surgery and those in whom the urinary catheter is removed early were more likely to experience POUR. Delayed urinary catheter removal could be considered, especially in patients undergoing repeat perineal tear surgery.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Phosphodiesterase enzymes are widely distributed in female urogenital tissues. Yet, the understanding of their physiological roles and the impact of phosphodiesterase inhibitors on lower urinary tract symptoms in women remains limited. Current hypotheses are conflicting: one suggests that vasodilation might expand the periurethral vascular plexus, leading to increased urethral pressure, whereas the other proposes a relaxation of urethral musculature, resulting in decreased pressure. To further clarify this, we investigated the effect of tadalafil on the opening urethral pressure and voiding function in healthy women. METHODS: We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial involving 24 healthy women. Participants were randomly assigned to receive a single dose of tadalafil (40 mg) or placebo during their initial visit and then switched to the alternative treatment during their second visit. Opening urethral pressure was measured with urethral pressure reflectometry during both resting and squeezing conditions of the pelvic floor. Subsequently, voiding parameters were recorded. RESULTS: Compared with placebo, a single dose of tadalafil significantly reduced opening urethral pressure during both resting (-6.8 cmH20; 95% confidence interval [CI], -11.8 to -1.9; p = 0.009) and squeezing conditions (-8.8 cmH20; 95% CI, -14.6 to -3.1; p = 0.005). Voiding parameters did not show significant differences (average flow rate: -0.8 ml/s [95% CI, -2.0 to 0.4; p = 0.2]; maximum flow rate: -1.7 ml/s [95% CI, -4.8 to 1.5; p = 0.3]). CONCLUSIONS: A single dose of 40 mg tadalafil moderately reduced urethral pressure in healthy women, without affecting voiding parameters. The clinical implications of this are yet to be determined.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: We hypothesized that applying cervical suction and persistent tension can develop a novel and efficient rat model of pelvic organ prolapse. METHODS: Fifteen rats underwent pilot testing to optimize the protocol. Sixteen rats were subjected to pelvic organ prolapse induction by cervical suction and constant traction, while five rats served as controls. The pelvic organ prolapse rats were assessed by a Rat Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification system at different time points, and their diet, urine, and stool were monitored for 21 days. The pelvic organ prolapse rats were also evaluated for urinary incontinence, urinary retention, leak point pressure, and vaginal histopathology at 21 days after operation. RESULTS: This rat model demonstrated pelvic floor prolapse in anatomic level, as well as physiological variations (urine incontinence, urinary retention) and pathological changes (collagen fracture, decreased collagen density). CONCLUSIONS: This is the first establishment of the pelvic organ prolapse rat model with all compartment defects, which provides a valuable tool for elucidating pelvic organ prolapse mechanisms and evaluating potential interventions.
