Purpose: This study aimed to provide foundational data to enhance integrated interventions by gaining an in-depth understanding of the perceptions of patients experiencing both mental illness and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), which carry a high risk of comorbidity and potential mutual exacerbation.
Methods: Data were collected from a large online mental health community in South Korea, active among individuals with mental illness and their families (as of October 21, 2024: 113,060 members and 368,352 posts). Posts containing the keywords 'pee' or 'urine' (a total of 986 posts) were analyzed including their titles, content, and categories.
Purpose: To establish a foundation for raising awareness and disseminating accurate information about enuresis-one of the most challenging conditions to discuss openly-this paper examines public perceptions of enuresis.
Methods: This paper collected title and text data from posts related to enuresis on the top popular online platforms such Naver Cafe in South Korea and Reddit in the United States (US). The data along with the thematic subcommunities where the posts were uploaded, was analyzed and visualized using word cloud, Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling, and pyLDAvis.

Research has shown that the entry into these cells is through porcine aminopeptidase N (pAPN) receptor. To gain insights into mechanisms of PEDV-pAPN interactions, the present study aimed at identifying the domain that is critical for PEDV binding.
