Sexual and Urinary Dysfunction Following Isolated Acetabulum Fractures: A Systematic Review of the Literature.
J Clin Med
January 2025
Academic Department of Trauma & Orthopaedics, School of Medicine, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9LU, UK.
Acetabular fractures are rare fractures of the pelvis which usually result from trauma. Whilst data are reported on sexual and genitourinary function in those with pelvic fractures, less is known about those with isolated acetabulum fractures. This systematic review aimed to determine, first, the frequency of sexual and genitourinary dysfunction following isolated acetabulum fractures and, second, the nature of these complications.

The urothelium and lamina propria (LP) contribute to sensations of bladder fullness by releasing multiple mediators, including prostaglandins (PGs) and adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), that activate or modulate functions of cells throughout the bladder wall. Mediators that are simultaneously released in response to bladder distention likely influence each other's mechanisms of release and action. This study investigated whether PGs could alter the extracellular hydrolysis of ATP by soluble nucleotidases (s-NTDs) released in the LP of nondistended or distended bladders.

Hypertension is a multifactorial and complex disease influenced by genetic and environmental factors, and it has become one of the most serious public health challenges. This study aimed to investigate the changes in hypertension based on urinary proteome. The stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSPs) model was used to examined urinary proteome changes during the development of hypertension.

A phage-antibiotic synergy could be an alternative in urinary tract infection (UTI) therapy, as it leads to the elimination of bacteria and to the reduction in variants resistant to phages and antibiotics. The aims of the in vitro study were to determine whether phages vB_Efa29212_2e and vB_Efa29212_3e interact synergistically with selected antibiotics in the treatment of infections, to optimize antibiotic concentrations and phage titers for the most effective combinations, and to assess their impact on the number of spontaneous resistant variants and on the phages' reproductive cycles. The modified double-layer disc diffusion method, checkboard, time-kill assays, one-step growth method and the double agar overlay plaque assay were implemented.

A 54-year-old man presented with gait disturbances, urinary incontinence, and headache for 6 months. Head computed tomography indicated several high-density mass lesions in the quadrigeminal cistern, causing occlusive hydrocephalus. Digital subtraction angiography confirmed tentorial dural arteriovenous fistulae (AVF).
