Obesity is not a homogeneous condition and that the regional distribution of adipose tissue is important to understanding the relation of obesity to disturbances in glucose and lipid metabolism. Central abdominal fat is composed of abdominal subcutaneous fat and visceral fat. Regional distribution appears to be an important indicator for metabolic alterations since an inconstant correlation between body mass index (BMI) and these disturbances have been found. Visceral obesity is associated with increased adipocytokine production, proinflammatory activity, deterioration of insulin sensitivity, increased risk of developing diabetes, "high-triglyceride/low-HDL cholesterol dyslipidemia," hypertension and atherosclerosis. It might be more precise to divide central abdominal fat into subcutaneous(S) and visceral (V) fat surface area and volume and even ratio (S/V); risk factors for cardiovascular disease, particularly those related to glucose and lipid metabolism and hypertension, being>0.4; with evaluation of visceral fat functionality by visceral adiposity index (VAI) with integration with lipid profile. Adding bladder wall thickness with perivesical fat as a factor may impair bladder function and contribute to dysregulation. The data on the association between central adiposity with OAB symptoms and Urodynamics is not mature.
This study was a multicentre, quasi-experimental design, controlled, before-and-after trial to estimate the effectiveness related to the review of mirabegron use and, if appropriate, its discontinuation. Intervention group: Patients with mirabegron prescription assigned to any of the 17 primary health care centers (PHC) located in the northern area of Barcelona. Control group: All the other patients assigned to any of the other 34 health care centers in Barcelona belonging to the Catalan Institut of Health (CIH). The structured intervention included initiatives with general practitioners and urologists/gynaecologists, management support from health care authorities, and monthly feed-back monitoring to general practitioners (GPs). The follow-up period was 12 months, from January 1st to December 31st, 2017.
The investigators attend to conduct a prospective randomized study to assess safety and efficacy of trigonal-involved vs. trigonal-sparing botox injection technique, quality of life measurement and post-injection anticholinergics use efficacy. Assessing safety by identification of side effects like constipation, urine retention....etc. efficacy is measured using Over Active Bladder Symptoms Score(OABSS) and urodynamics measures after 6 months follow up.
Overactive bladder is a clinical syndrome characterized by frequency, with or without urge incontinence, urgency, and nocturia, which affect patients' sleeping quality and rehabilitation program progressing. Current treatments include behavioral therapy (eg, life style adjustment, bladder training, pelvic floor muscle therapy) and medication. Antimuscarinic agents is the most common medications prescribed for OAB, but patients often have side effects like dry mouth and constipation. And there were plenty of herbal medicine which are beneficial to urine frequency and voiding dysfunction in ancient Chinese medicine books and records. In human trial, 62 Subjects diagnosed as overactive bladder will be enrolled and treated with Cinnamon patch. After treatment we will estimate the efficacy and record adverse events to conduct statistically analysis.
To evaluate the efficacy of combined transvaginal electrical stimulation (ES) and transcutaneous tibial nerve electrical stimulation (TTNS) in the treatment of female overactive bladder syndrome (OAB).
This clinical trial compared the therapeutic effects and adverse events (AEs) in overactive bladder (OAB) patients receiving different combination of mirabegron and antimuscarinics. Methods: This is a prospective randomized study. OAB patients received mirabegron 25 mg (M25) daily for one month (1M) and then were randomized as group 1: to continue M25, group 2: to mirabegron 50 mg, group 3: to shift to solifenacin 5 mg (S5) and group 4: to combine M25 and S5 for further 2 months (totally 3 months, 3M). Efficacy and AEs were evaluated. At the end of 3M, the preferred option for future treatment was investigated.
Investigators aimed to investigate the association between over active bladder and coronary artery disease as demonstrated on coronary angiography.
Background/Purpose: The overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) affects around 17 % of female population. Antimuscarinics can affect autonomic system, arterial stiffness and psychosomatic distress. However, there is no such research for the new drug- mirabegron (a β3-agonist). Thus, the aim of our study is to analyze the between-group differences in heart rate variability, cardio-ankle vascular index, ankle-brachial pressure index, psychosomatic distress, personality trait, family support and clinical outcomes between the mirabegron and the solifenacin groups. Patients and Methods: The investigators will perform a prospective randomized controlled study to recruit 150 female OAB patients at the outpatient clinic of Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of National Taiwan University Hospital. All OAB female patients will be asked to complete Urgency Severity Scales, Overactive Bladder Symptoms Scores questionnaires, King's Health questionnaires, UDI-6 & IIQ-7, Patient Health Questionnaire, brief symptom rating scale (BSRS), Maudsley personality inventory (MPI) and adaptability, partnership, growth, affection, and resolve (APGAR) questionnaires, Sleep and Dietary habit Questionnaire, standard 12-leads electrocardiography (ECG), 5 minutes Holter monitoring, cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) test, bladder diary, 20-min pad test, urodynamic studies and measurement of urinary nerve growth factors level before and after 12 weeks' mirabegron versus solifenacin treatment. STATA software is used for statistical analyses. Possible Results: The investigators can answer that the between-group differences in heart rate variability, cardio-ankle vascular index, ankle-brachial pressure index, psychosomatic distress, personality trait, family support and clinical outcomes between the mirabegron and the solifenacin groups. The above conclusions should be important for pre-treatment consultation.
The purposes of this study were to assess Quality of Life (QoL) and urination urge, incontinence, and micturition frequency including nocturia after 4 and 12 weeks treatment with propiverine.
