Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical effect of transcutaneous pelvic floor magnetic stimulation combined with urination training in the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) in children.

Methods: In this study, the clinical data of 42 children with OAB who were treated with transcutaneous pelvic floor magnetic stimulation combined with the urination training method at our hospital from March 2022 to December 2022 (Group B) were collected. The clinical data of 50 children with OAB who were treated with the urination training method at our hospital from December 2021 to February 2022 (Group A) were used as controls. The clinical efficacy of treatment was compared between the two groups.

Results: After 2 weeks of treatment, the Akbal scale scores of the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment (P < 0.05). After two weeks of treatment, the Akbal score of Group B was significantly lower than that of Group A (P < 0.05). The maximum voiding volume (MVV), average voiding volume (AVV), maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate and voiding frequency significantly differed between the two groups as well as before and after treatment (P < 0.05). Specifically, the MVV, AVV and maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate and voiding frequency significantly differed between the two groups after treatment, and the improvement value of Group B was greater than that of Group A (P < 0.05). After 2 weeks of treatment, the Akbal score revealed that the degree of improvement in frequent urination throughout the day, the degree of urgency and quality of life of patients in Group B were significantly greater than those in Group A (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: Transcutaneous pelvic floor magnetic stimulation combined with urination training was effective in the treatment of children with OAB. Compared with urination training alone, this method can achieve better therapeutic effects and can more effectively improve the symptoms, bladder capacity and urination function of children after 2 weeks of treatment.

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the effectiveness and safety of sacral magnetic stimulation (SMS) in the management of detrusor underactivity (DU).

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 66 patients with detrusor underactivity treated at Hangzhou Third People's Hospital from January 2020 to October 2024, divided into two groups (33 cases each). Both groups had confirmed detrusor underactivity via urodynamic studies.

-Anethole (1-methoxy-4-[1()-propenyl]benzene, tAT) is the main ingredient in the essential oil extracted from star anise fruits. The double bonds in the side chain of tAT are a type of alert structure that can be metabolized into epoxides possibly causing liver damage. This work investigated and identified the reactive metabolites of tAT that are chemically reactive to biothiols, such glutathione (GSH), -acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC), and cysteine residues of proteins.

This case-control study aimed to investigate the health risks faced by university professors as a result of using whiteboard markers. The study included 30 professors who used the whiteboard markers for teaching and 20 professors who used other teaching aids. Samples of urine and breathing air were collected from the participants, and then analyzed in the laboratory using gas chromatography (GC) to measure the concentrations of BTEX compounds.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the impact of a comprehensive nursing intervention targeting high water and salt intake on blood pressure and volume burden in patients with chronic renal failure.

Method: From January 2020 to January 2023, 120 patients diagnosed with chronic renal failure were treated at our hospital. Participants were randomly allocated to either a control group ( = 60) receiving standard dietary education or an observation group ( = 60) receiving intensive water-salt diet nursing intervention alongside standard education.

This research addresses the critical challenge of early detection in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by exploring urinary biomarkers and integrating artificial intelligence (AI) models. The study emphasizes the significance of liquid biopsy, particularly in urine, as a noninvasive approach for real-time monitoring of PDAC. Traditional diagnostic methods face limitations, necessitating the exploration of novel biomarkers and AI applications.
