Objectives: The psychological acceptance of intermittent self-catheterisation (ISC) significantly impacts its initial adoption and long-term compliance among patients. However, our understanding of this acceptance remains limited. This study aims to investigate ISC's psychological acceptance and identify influencing factors among neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) patients in China.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and urinary incontinence (UI) are two prevalent health conditions with significant impacts on individuals' quality of life. Although they appear distinct in nature, a growing body of evidence suggests a potential interrelationship between these conditions. Our objective was to explore the association between the risk of OSA and the occurrence of UI within a nationally representative sample of U.

Introduction: Defining "high-risk bladder" or "high-pressure bladder" involves recognizing the potential for an unsafe lower urinary tract, where dysfunction in storage and micturition can threaten upper urinary tract health, leading to unfavorable outcomes like dialysis, recurrent infections, systemic impact, or mortality.
Methods: ICI-RS was held in Bristol in June 2024, and Think Tank 2 aimed to define research priorities including identifying clinical predictors and developing prevention and monitoring strategies.
Results: Risk factors encompass both congenital and neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction, bladder outlet obstruction, vascular diseases, and inflammatory disorders, but a validated stratification risk is lacking.

Aims: The objective of the prospective cohort study on the incidence of metabolic diseases and risk factors in Shunde (Speed-Shunde cohort) was to evaluate the incidence of cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome and metabolic-associated multimorbidity, such as diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in Shunde, Foshan, Guangdong, China. Additionally, the study sought to identify the potential determinants that may impact the development of these conditions and the potential consequences that may result.
Methods And Result: In the Speed-Shunde cohort, data were gathered via questionnaires, physical measurements, and laboratory analyses encompassing demographic data, behavioral tendencies, anthropometric assessments, controlled attenuation parameters and liver stiffness measurement utilizing vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE), as well as serum and urine detection (such as oral 75g glucose tolerance tests, hemoglobin A1c levels, lipid profiles, liver and renal function tests, urinary microalbumin and creatinine levels, etc.

Acrylamide may affect sex hormone levels and the timing of sexual maturation. The present study cross-sectionally examined interrelationship between the urinary metabolite of acrylamide exposure, serum sex hormone levels, and pubertal status in 408 Japanese adolescents aged 13-14 years. Their caregivers completed a questionnaire concerning the health status of their children, including pubertal maturation, and the lifestyles of children and parents.
