ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effects of unilateral ureteral obstruction on renal pelvic peristalsis and pacemaker cells in neonatal rats.Methods:An animal experimental study.Thirty-six 2-day-old newborn SD rats were randomly divided into the partial unilateral ureteral obstruction (PUUO) group, complete unilateral ureteral obstruction (CUUO) group, and sham operation group, with 12 rats in each group.One week after surgery, all rats were subjected to renal pelvic pressure (RPP) measurement by puncture.After measurement, the rats were euthanized, and their left renal pelvis and ureter were removed and fixed for histological examination.Parameters such as RPP, peristaltic wave frequency and amplitude at different perfusion speeds were recorded and compared, and the changes in pacemaker cells (atypical smooth muscle cells and Cajal-like interstitial cells) were also compared.The independent samples t-test was used for comparison between 2 groups, and the one-way ANOVA of variance was used for comparison among 3 groups. Results:In the sham operation group, the RPP increased gradually with the increase of perfusion speed; the frequency of peristaltic waves rose rapidly and then dropped after reaching the highest level with the increase of perfusion speed; similarly, the amplitude of peristaltic waves first increased and then decreased as the perfusion speed increased.In the PUUO group, the RPP increased rapidly with the increase of perfusion speed, higher than that in the sham operation group; the frequency of peristaltic waves was higher than that in the sham operation group, and it was relatively constant under the perfusion speed of 40 mL/h, but when the perfusion speed increased again, the frequency began to decline; the amplitude of peristaltic waves increased quickly and then declined at a faster rate than the sham operation group with the increase of perfusion speed.In the CUUO group, the basic RPP was 12 cmH 2O(1 cmH 2O=0.098 kPa); at the perfusion speed of 5 mL/h, the RPP rose gradually, and no plateau appeared; when the RPP reached 73 cmH 2O, the perfusate retrograded from the side of the puncture needle, then the RPP slightly decreased and then balanced, and no regular peristaltic waves were observed in the renal pelvis throughout the whole perfusion process.Immunofluorescence staining analysis showed the pacemaker cells were all located in the smooth muscle of the renal pelvic wall.The sham operation group had the highest positive rate, followed by the PUUO group and then the CUUO group. Conclusions:Ureteral obstruction has a significant impact on the peristalsis of the renal pelvis, and its impact on the peristaltic wave frequency and amplitude and RPP can be predicted.The reduction of pacemaker cells in the renal pelvis may be involved in the changes of renal pelvic peristalsis caused by ureteral obstruction, but further research is needed on how pacemaker cells regulate the peristalsis of the renal pelvis and ureter.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To investigate the possibility of using voiding diary (VD) to predict desmopressin diacetate arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) and enuresis alarm (EA) in the treatment of primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (PMNE). 【Methods】 A total of 100 children (aged 6 to 14 years) with PMNE treated during Jan.2018 and Oct.2022 were involved. Bladder type was classified with two-week VD. Pseudo-randomization was performed using the Danish REDCap system to group patients into the randomized group and VD group. All patients were treated for 8 weeks. 【Results】 A total of 82 cases met the inclusive criteria. The effective rate was 82.50% (33/40) and 59.52% (25/42) in the VD and randomized groups, respectively, with significant difference (χ2=5.224, P=0.022). In the randomized group, if VD was not considered, the effective rate in the DDAVP and EA subgroups was 81.82% (18/22) and 25.00% (5/20), respectively, with significant difference (χ2=13.625, P=0.000). 【Conclusion】 VD can predict the therapeutic effects of PMNE. It is necessary to record VD for two weeks before selecting appropriate treatment methods. For patients who choose treatment without reference to VD, DDAVP shows better response than EA, but the recurrence rate after discontinuation of treatment requires further follow-up.

ABSTRACT

Objective To identify the risk factors associated with recurrent urinary tract infection (RUTI) in children with neurogenic bladders (NB) who received clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) in order to provide recommendations for reducing the risk of RUTI.Methods Records of 184 children with NB managed by CIC at the Department of Urology Surgery,the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from July 2011 to September 2015 were reviewed and analyzed.According to UTI incidence,they were divided into 2 groups as occasional UTI group (0-1 time/year,OUTI group) and RUTI group (> 1 time/year).The clinical and urodynamic data were compared between 2 groups,and the risk factors were identified by regression analysis.Results Of the total patients,147 patients (79.9%) were diagnosed as OUTI and 37 cases (20.1%) as RUTI.Median follow-up lasted for average 27 months (12-39 months).The characteristics of RUTI group was indicated significantly in the study,which included increasing age(7.4 years old vs.5.9 years old),a higher level of spinal lesions,and more vesicoureteral reflux(VUR),and there were significant differences in bladder wall thickness(4.7 cm vs.3.6 cm) and lower bladder compliance compared with RUTI group (all P < 0.05).But there was no statistical significance in gender,antibiotics,hydronephrosis,incontinence,bladder capacity,detrusor overactivity,detrusor sphincter dyssynergia and detrusor leakage point pressure between 2 groups (all P > 0.05).Increasing age,increased bladder wall thickness,lower bladder com-pliance and the presence of VUR were independent risk factors associated with RUTI group (all P < 0.05).Conclusions Increasing age,increasing bladder wall thickness,lower bladder compliance and VUR are the risk factors for RUTI in NB children managed with CIC.It is necessary to follow up video-urodynamic and ultrasound findings in order to identify the high-risk patients and provide the evidence for preventing RUTI.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the relationship between ultrasound-assayed detrusor thickness and bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) in old men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods The 106 BPH patients underwent the urodynamic examination on which the diagnosis of BOO was dependent. The obstruction was defined as the Abrams-Griffiths nomogram (A-G index)≥40 and the grade of linear passive urethral resistance relation (LinPURR)≥Ⅱ . When bladder capacity reached 150 ml, the detrusor thickness was measured by abdominal ultrasound. Results Compared with unobstructed group, the maximum flow rate and average flow rate were both lower in obstructed group [(10.1±3.0) ml/s vs. (17.4±3.1) ml/s, (5.5±2.2) ml/s vs. (11.2±2.2) ml/s, t= 10.26and 11.03, both P<0.01]. And the residual urine volume and maximum detrusor pressure were significantly higher in obstructed group than in unobstructed group [(47.6 ± 24.3) ml vs. (17.0 ±5.6) ml, (39.3±14.4) cm H2Ovs. (26.8±8.0) cm H2O, t=6.32 and 4.07, P<0.01 or 0.05].Detrusor thickness was positively correlated with maximum detrusor pressure (r= 0.419, P<0.01),but negatively correlated with maximum flow rate (r =- 0.749, P< 0.01 ), mean flow rate (r=-0.853, P<0.01) and voided volume (r=-0.556, P<0.01). There was significant difference in detrusor thickness between obstructed group and unobstructed group [(3.0± 0.2) mm vs. (2.5 ±0.2) mm, t= 11.2,P<0.05]. According to the diagnostic standard of detrusor thickness≥3.0 mm,it had a sensitivity of 90% and a specificity of 84.6%, a positive predictive value of 93.1% and a negative predictive value of 78.6%. Conclusions Detrusor thickness of 3.0 mm or greater has a certain predictive value for BOO in old men.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship between aquaporin-1, -2, -3, -4 mRNA (AQP1-4) and renal parenchyma thickness in congenital hydronephrotic kidney in children. Methods The expressions of aquaporin 1, -2, -3, and -4 mRNA in hydronephrotic kidney of 37 children (aged 60.3±48.8 months) were evaluated with congenital hydronephrosis and control kidney of 6 children (aged 62.7±17.1 months) by using semi-quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction technique. Hydronephrotic kidney parenchyma thickness was measured by B-Ultrasound preoperative-ly and verified at operation. The relations of aquaporin 1, -2, -3, and -4 mRNA to the hydronephrotic kidney parenchyma thickness were analyzed by correlation analysis. Results The aquaporin 1 ,-2,-3, and -4/beta-actin ratio in the hydronephrotic kidney and normal kidney were 0.39±0.22 vs 0.90± 0.10, 0.42±0.20 vs 0.92±0.09, 0.525±0.22 vs 0.98±0.12, 0.30±0.18 vs 0.74±0.21 respec-tively, and the differences were significant (P<0.01). Hydronephrotic kidney parenchyma thickness measured by D-Ultrasound was 5.01±2.38 mm, which was identical with those measured at opera-tion. Significant correlation was found between the levels of aquaporin 1,-2,-3, and -4 mRNA and hydronephrotic kidney parenchyma thickness (r=0.773, 0.772, 0.557, 0.625, respectively; P< 0.01). Conclusions Significant correlation exists between decreased expressions of aquaporin 1 ,-2, -3, and -4 mRNA and atrophic change of renal parenchyma. This result may provide evidence to ex-plain the mechanism why the thinner renal parenchyma thickness, the weaker renal concentration and dilution function.
