The mechanisms underlying the sustained activation of the PI3K/AKT and Wnt/β-catenin pathways mediated by HOTAIR in cervical cancer (CC) have not been extensively described. To address this knowledge gap in the literature, we explored the interactions between these pathways by driving HOTAIR expression levels in HeLa cells. Our findings reveal that HOTAIR is a key regulator in sustaining the activation of both signaling pathways.

Objective: To evaluate bladder capacity in women with idiopathic overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) through bladder diary, cystomanometry, and uroflowmetry and assess the concordance of the different measures of bladder capacity. A secondary objective is to describe the relationship between bladder capacity and urinary frequency in OAB patients.

Methods: An observational cross-sectional multicentric study was conducted, including female patients diagnosed with idiopathic OAB.

Introduction And Objective: The use of onabotulinumtoxin A (BoNT-A) injection in male patients with detrusor overactivity (DO) after stress urinary incontinence (SUI) surgery has been scarcely described. Our aim was to assess results of this treatment in this specific population.

Materials And Methods: Retrospective analysis of men with previous SUI surgery who had been treated with a first injection of 100 U BoNT-A because of DO since 2010 in our department.

Amoebiasis in humans is caused by the protozoan parasite which cytotoxic activity has been demonstrated on a wide variety of target cells. The process involves the adherence of the parasite to the cell, and such adherence is mediated by an amoebic surface lectin, known as Gal/GalNAc lectin. It is composed of heavy, intermediate, and light subunits.
