Article Synopsis
- The review investigates the connection between lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and a history of sexual abuse (SA), noting that the relationship is not well understood and requires systematic evaluation.
- A literature search identified 18 relevant studies, highlighting that the prevalence of SA among patients with LUTS varied widely and was linked to mental health issues like stress, depression, and anxiety.
- The findings underscore the importance of creating a supportive clinic environment for patients to discuss trauma, and emphasize the need for better standardization in assessing SA and LUTS.
Objective: To assess the role of visual measures and retinal volume to predict the risk of Parkinson disease (PD) dementia.
Methods: In this cohort study, we collected visual, cognitive, and motor data in people with PD. Participants underwent ophthalmic examination, retinal imaging using optical coherence tomography, and visual assessment including acuity and contrast sensitivity and high-level visuoperception measures of skew tolerance and biological motion.
