[Is there a correlation between abdominal leak pressure point, incontinence severity and quality of life in patients with stress urinary incontinence?].

Objectives: To evaluate if there is a correlation between the abdominal leak pressure point (ALPP) of the urodynamic study and several tools to evaluate severity and quality of life associated to stress urine incontinence (SUI).

Methods: Prospective correlation study of women referred to urodynamic study for stress urinary incontinence in Centro Urológico Profesor Bengió between September 2014 and October 2015. Anamnesis, physical examination (where the SUI was demonstrated), ICIQSF urine incontinence questionnaire and incontinence impact questionnaire (IIQ-7) were performed to every patient.

[Comparison of the symptoms of overactive bladder in women with mixed urinary incontinence and idiopathic urge urinary incontinence.].

Introduction: Various authors argued that the voiding urgency component in mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) is different than urge urinary incontinence (UUI). In this last case they suggest that incontinence in MUI could be overdiagnosed in patients with SUI, misunderstanding the leak as UUI.

Objetives: To evaluate clinical and urodynamic characteristics of patients with MUI and pure UUI.

[Impact of tumor diameter on prognosis in patients with renal cancer stage pT3a.].

Objective: To determine the prognostic impact that tumor size has in patients with pathological renal cancer stage pT3a.

Methods: Retrospective, descriptive study evaluating 261 patients diagnosed with renal cancer pathological stage pT1-3aN0M0 between 1995 and 2013. Clinical and pathological characteristics were evaluated in each group.

[Is CAPRA-S score a valid tool in our environment to predict biochemical recurrence, metastasis and death after radical prostatectomy?].

Objectives: To perform an external validation of CAPRA-S Score to determine prediction of biochemical recurrence, metastasis and death by PCa after RP in Argentinian population.

Methods: 216 patients were studied. The probability of the score to predict biochemical recurrence after RP was analyzed by the Cox proportional method.

[Evaluation of the empty bladder stress test in supine position as a marker of severity and quality of life in women with stress urinary incontinence].

Objectives: To assess the association between empty bladder stress test and objective and subjective measures of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) severity.

Methods: Prospective, analytic and descriptive study of females with diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence referred for urodynamics study. Every patient underwent medical history (including number of daily pads) and physical examination, ISIQ-SF and short IIQ-7 questionnaires, and full urodynamic study, including the measurment of the abdominal leak pressure point (ALPP).

Prostate cancer mortality trends in Argentina 1986-2006: an age-period-cohort and joinpoint analysis.

The aim of this study was to give an overview of the magnitude, variation by age and time trends in the rates of prostate cancer mortality in Córdoba province and in Argentina as a whole from 1986 to 2006. Mortality data were provided by the Córdoba Ministry of Health and the World Health Organization cancer mortality database. Prostate cancer mortality time trends were analyzed using joinpoint analysis and age-period-cohort models.
