Purpose Of Review: This review discusses published data of the recent advances in understanding lower urinary tract dysfunctions in women with diabetes mellitus.
Recent Findings: Many studies have shown a relationship between diabetes mellitus and lower urinary tract dysfunctions. Although the pathophysiology of these disorders is multifactorial, microvascular damage and neuropathy causing dysfunctions of smooth muscle, urothelium, and neuronal components in the lower urinary tract are the most likely etiologies.
Summary: Lower urinary tract dysfunctions are common in diabetes mellitus. Screening and effective management of these disorders should be promoted in an effort to decrease morbidity and improve quality of life.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a well-known metabolic disease with increasing prevalence. Diabetic-related complications lead to different types of organ damage, some of which some of which are less well-known. In the lower urinary tract, a complex interplay of neuronal, myogenic, and urothelial dysfunction leads to functional disorders of the lower urinary tract, with disorders of bladder storage and bladder emptying being in the forefront.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of hysterectomy for benign uterine tumors on subsequent ovarian reserve, sexual function, and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS).
Methods: The present study was a prospective longitudinal analysis that recruited patients aged 35-45 years who underwent simple hysterectomy without oophorectomy for symptomatic benign uterine tumors. Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and serum sex hormone profiles, including follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol, progesterone, and total testosterone, were measured at four timepoints: before hysterectomy, and 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively.

Background: Adrenal Vein Sampling (AVS) is the gold standard for categorizing primary aldosteronism (PA). However, catheterization of the right adrenal vein (RAV) can be technically challenging. This study aimed to investigate the validity of the right renal vertebral contour as fluoroscopic landmarks to help RAV orifice localization during AVS.

Background And Objective: Radiation-induced cystitis (RIC) is an important consequence of pelvic radiotherapy that can cause high morbidity and, in extreme cases, mortality. The lack of a widely accepted classification system makes it difficult to compare treatment regimens. Our aim was to develop a new classification system covering the RIC spectrum to improve treatment comparisons and accurate incidence estimates for systematic use in clinical and research settings.
