Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how genetic factors contribute to overactive bladder (OAB) by analyzing gene expression differences between OAB patients and healthy controls.
- Through a systematic review spanning various databases, researchers identified 11 genes that are either up-regulated or down-regulated in OAB patients based on tissue samples.
- The gene network analysis indicates these genes are linked to essential functions like chemical synaptic transmission, which may help in understanding the biological mechanisms behind OAB.
Incidence and risk factors of early postoperative small bowel obstruction in patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign indications.

Article Synopsis
- Small bowel obstruction (SBO) is a significant complication after abdominal and pelvic surgery, particularly hysterectomies, and is primarily caused by intra-abdominal adhesions.
- Early SBO occurs within the first 30 days post-surgery and poses challenges in diagnosis and treatment, as distinguishing between mechanical and nonmechanical causes can be difficult.
- This study aims to assess the incidence and risk factors for early SBO in patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign conditions, utilizing data from the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP).
