Delayed elimination communication on the prevalence of children's bladder and bowel dysfunction.

To determine the prevalence of bladder and bowel dysfunction (BBD) and its relationship with delayed elimination communication (EC) in children. A cross-sectional study was carried out in kindergartens and primary schools in mainland China. A total of 10,166 children ranging from 4 to 10 years old were included.

Free voiding patterns in preterm and full-term newborn infants are different between males and females.

Aim: The neonatal period is critical in bladder development, encompassing the transition from foetal bladder contractions to voluntary infant urination. The aim of this study was to investigate different voiding parameters between male and female newborn infants.

Methods: We studied 102 healthy, single birth newborn infants - 54 preterm and 48 full-term - without lower urinary tract diseases, hospitalised in the neonatal intensive care unit from March 2011 to March 2012.

Bladder function development and its urodynamic evaluation in neonates and infants less than 2 years old.

Aims: To understand the function development of bladder and its evaluation in neonates and infants less than 2 years old.

Methods: Literature on neonatal and infant bladder function development and urodynamic evaluation were collected and reviewed.

Results: Normal range of bladder volume, pressure during voiding and other parameters in neonates and infants less than 2 years old is far from set up, making interpretation of UDS findings difficult.

Urine flow acceleration is superior to Qmax in diagnosing BOO in patients with BPH.

We performed a retrospective, case-control study to evaluate whether the urine flow acceleration (UFA, mL/s(2)) is superior to maximum uroflow (Qmax, mL/s) in diagnosing bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). In this study, a total of 50 men with BPH (age: 58±12.5 years) and 50 controls (age: 59±13.
