Objective: To evaluate the related factors of upper urinary tract deterioration in spinal cord injured patients.
Methods: Medical records of spinal cord injured patients from Jan.2002 to Sep.2009 were retrospectively reviewed. All the patients were divided into the upper urinary tract deterioration group and non-deterioration group according to the diagnostic criteria. Indexes such as demographic characteristic (gender, age), spinal cord injury information (cause, level, completeness), statuses of urinary tract system (bladder management, urine routine, urine culture, ultrasound, serum creatinine, fever caused by urinary tract infection) and urodynamics information(bladder compliance, bladder stability, bladder sensation, detrusor sphincter dyssynergia, detrusor leak point pressure, maximum cystometric capacity, relative safe bladder capacity, maximum flow rate, maximum urethra closure pressure) were compared between the two groups.Then Logistic regression analysis were performed.
Results: There was significantly difference between the two groups in spinal cord injury level(χ(2) = 8.840, P = 0.031),bladder management(χ(2) = 11.362, P = 0.045), urinary rutine(χ(2) = 17.983, P = 0.000), fever caused by urinary tract infection(χ(2)= 64.472, P = 0.000), bladder compliance(χ(2) = 6.531, P = 0.011), bladder sensation(χ(2) = 11.505, P = 0.009), maximum cystometric capacity(t = 2.209, P = 0.043), and detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia(χ(2) = 4.247, P = 0.039). The multiple-factor non-conditional Logistic regression analysis showed that bladder management (OR = 1.114, P = 0.006), fever caused by urinary tract infection(OR = 1.018,P = 0.000), bladder compliance (OR = 1.588, P = 0.040) and detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia(OR = 1.023, P = 0.034) were the key factors of upper urinary tract deterioration in spinal cord injured patients.
Conclusion: Urinary tract infection, lower bladder compliance, detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia and unreasonable bladder management are the risk factors of upper urinary tract deterioration in spinal cord injured patients.

Serum uric acid is an end-product of purine metabolism. Uric acid concentrations in excess of the physiological range may lead to diseases such as gout, cardiovascular disease, and kidney injury. The kidney includes a variety of cell types with specialized functions such as fluid and electrolyte homeostasis, detoxification, and endocrine functions.

Compared with uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs), complicated UTIs (cUTIs) including acute pyelonephritis (AP) present with significant morbidity, a higher risk of treatment failure and typically require longer courses of treatment, or alternative antibiotics. The emergence of drug-resistant organisms represents a considerable challenge in the treatment of patients with cUTIs/AP and has limited antibiotic options. Carbapenems are considered the current last line of therapy, however, carbapenem resistance represents a growing problem.

Background Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are an emerging treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The effect and tolerability of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with T2DM, especially related risk factors and susceptible populations, are an area of ongoing research. Aim The aim of this study was to evaluate the tolerability of SGLT2 inhibitors, particularly the risk associated with urogenital infection, in patients with T2DM.

Although there are abundant guidelines on how to best treat infections, there is less understanding of how treatment durations and antibiotic types influence the development of ABR. This study adopts a self-controlled case study (SCCS) method to relate antibiotic exposure time to subsequent changes in resistance patterns.
