Performing injections with a bulking agent consisting of nonanimal stabilized hyaluronic acid and dextranomer is a well-tolerated and efficacious treatment for mild to moderate fecal incontinence. Here, we discuss a case of a patient with a history of a bulking procedure for fecal incontinence who presented to the obstetrics/gynecology clinic for evaluation of a new vaginal "cyst," which was excised. Histopathologic examination revealed migrated bulking agent within the excised specimen.

To study the dynamic evolution law of the oxidation heating process of coal spontaneous combustion in the goaf during the advancing process of the working face, a dynamic model of oxidation heating of coal spontaneous combustion in the goaf was established on the basis of deformed geometry. Through numerical simulation research, the evolution and migration laws of seepage field, oxygen concentration field, temperature field, and high-temperature area of coal spontaneous combustion in the goaf during the advancement of the working face was obtained. The results indicate that the distribution of the bulking coefficient, porosity, and permeability of the falling coal and rock mass in the goaf is nonuniform.

To avoid complications related to mid-urethral slings (MUS), alternative procedures to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI), such as urethral bulking agents (UBAs) have been adopted. The aim of this review is to narratively report the efficacy and safety of UBAs for SUI treatment. For this review, research from PubMed and EMBASE was performed to evaluate relevant studies that were undertaken from January 2012 to January 2022.

Background: Implantation of Gatekeeper™ prostheses presents an option for the treatment of passive faecal incontinence (FI). Whilst preliminary results are encouraging, long-term data regarding its sustained benefit are limited. The aim of this study was to assess and evaluate the long-term clinical function and quality of life of patients with passive faecal incontinence who were treated with Gatekeeper™ prostheses.

Chromium (Cr) pollution is the primary pollution problem of the soil in tannery. However, the effect of tanning chemicals on Cr migration in soil has not been clearly elucidated. Column leaching tests were designed in this study to reveal the transport and transformation of Cr from basic chromium sulfate (BCS) into soil and the effects of lime on Cr migration and transformation.

Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is one of the most common congenital anomalies in the kidney and the urinary tract. Endoscopic subureteral injection of a bulking agent has become popular in VUR treatment due to its high success rates, few complications, and a straightforward procedure. In this study, a novel magnetic bulking agent was prepared by embedding FeO magnetic nanoparticles in cross-linked agarose microspheres with diameters of 80-250 μm and dispersing the magnetic microspheres in a hyaluronic acid hydrogel.
