A study of bladder function was performed on 106 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), 21 of whom had cerebrovascular disease (CVD). The incidence of overactive bladder in 21 patients with CVD was 57% and was significantly higher than the 25% in 86 patients without CVD. The incidence of cases having residual urine of over 100 ml, was in the order of low compliance bladder, overactive bladder and normal bladder. The mean value of maximum voiding pressure in overactive bladder was higher than that in normal bladder. The high pressure was improved after the operation for BPH. Improvement of overactive bladder after the operation was seen in 9 of 13 patients without CVD while in 2 of 6 patients with CVD.

Importance: The most used overactive bladder (OAB) medications are anticholinergics, which professional societies recommend avoiding in older patients given dementia risk. Cost prevents patients from switching to preferred beta-3 agonists. Mirabegron was the only beta-3 agonist eligible for the Centers for Medicare/Medicaid Services (CMS) 2023 Drug Negotiation Program (DNP).

Introduction And Objective: Observable autonomous rhythmic changes in intravesical pressure, termed bladder wall micromotion, is a phenomenon that has been linked to urinary urgency, the key symptom in overactive bladder (OAB). However, the mechanism through which micromotion drives urinary urgency is poorly understood. In addition, micromotion is inherently difficult to study in human urodynamics due to challenges distinguishing it from normal cyclic physiologic processes such as pulse rate, breathing, rectal contractions, and ureteral jetting.

Objectives: To evaluate possible predictors of elevated postvoid residual volume (PVR) following onabotulinumtoxinA administration in patients with idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB), a condition that may include urinary urgency, frequency, and nocturia, without any identifiable cause or underlying neurological or metabolic condition.
Methods: Adults who had been treated with 100-200 U onabotulinumtoxinA for OAB and had previous failure of other OAB treatments were identified by retrospective review of medical chart data from three urology clinics in the United States treating patients with a variety of urological conditions. A total of 211 patients were allocated to cohorts based on posttreatment PVR < 200 mL (n = 173) and ≥ 200 mL (n = 38).

Objective: This study aims to investigate the relationship between HPV-associated LSIL and HSIL lesions and overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms in postmenopausal women, highlighting the role of severe histopathological lesions.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on postmenopausal women aged 40-65 years who presented at Istanbul Bakırköy Sadi Konuk Training and Research Hospital between January 2021 and March 2023. The study included HPV-positive patients with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL), as well as HPV-negative controls.

Objectives: To evaluate the effect of intravesical alkalinised lidocaine as an anaesthetic treatment on procedural pain during intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxinA (BTX-A) injections for overactive bladder.
Patients And Methods: This single-centre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled two period crossover trial was conducted on women scheduled for BTX-A injections at our outpatient urogynaecology clinic between September 2022 and May 2024. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either alkalinised lidocaine or placebo during the first treatment period.
