Introduction And Hypothesis: Polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAHG) is a bulking agent used in treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. Some women experience an improvement or cure in stress urinary incontinence (SUI) symptoms lasting only a few weeks after the injection of the bulking agent. The aim of this study was to use three-dimensional ultrasound (3DUS) to describe the changes in volume, number of deposits and echogenicity of the bulking agent 3 months after PAHG injection.

Context: Active acromegaly is characterized by lipolysis-induced insulin resistance, which suggests adipose tissue (AT) as a primary driver of metabolic aberrations.

Objective: To study the gene expression landscape in AT in patients with acromegaly before and after disease control in order to understand the changes and to identify disease-specific biomarkers.

Methods: RNA sequencing was performed on paired subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) biopsies from six patients with acromegaly at time of diagnosis and after curative surgery.

Objective: To investigate whether women who developed acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (ACPO) after cesarean section have a higher degree of gastro-intestinal symptoms than women who did not develop ACPO after cesarean section. ACPO is a colonic dilatation without mechanical obstruction, and with an unknown pathophysiology. In younger people it is mostly seen in women after cesarean section.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Aalborg University Hospital (AAUH), Reberbansgade 15, 9000, Aalborg, Denmark.

Introduction And Hypothesis: The beneficial effect of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery on urge urinary incontinence (UI) is well described in the literature, while effect on preoperative stress UI (SUI) is still unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate changes concerning UUI following POP surgery without concomitant anti-incontinence procedures and to identify possible factors influencing the changes.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of 678 women with prolapse surgery using native tissue repair during a 3-year period.

Objective: Reported incidences of de novo urinary incontinence (UI) following pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery in preoperatively continent women vary between 2% and 43%. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and the types of de novo UI and differences between operations in different compartments.

Study Design: Retrospective study of 678 women with POP surgery using native tissue repair during a 3-year period.
