Objective To investigate the change of quality of life and urodynamics after the enterocystoplasty combined with clean intermittent self-catheterisation (CISC) in nonparalytic spinal cord dysfunction (NSCD) patients with neurogenic underactive bladder by the Medical Outcomes study 36-item short-form general health survey (SF-36). Methods The quality of life of 72 NSCD patients with NUB were measured by SF-36 questionnaire, who had been taken enterocystoplasty combined with CISC or only CISC according to urodynamic results. In total, 58(81% ) patients were successfully followed for one year by SF-36 questionnaire and urodynamic examination, including 30 men (mean age 27±5 year) and 28 women (mean age 26±4 year). The normal volunteers without lower urinary tract symptom were set as control group, including 20 men (mean age 28 ± 4 year) and 20 women (mean age 29±4 year). Results At the follow-up, physical role, vitality and social function of men and women were 55±14 and 45±15, 76±19 and 74±15, 52±19 and 59±13 respectively, significantly higher than those before the treatment (35 ± 10 and 32 ±11, 27 ± 18 and 33 ± 17, 40 ±12 and 34 ±15). The bladder compliance and maximum cystometric capacity were (320 ± 44 ) ml and ( 338 ±50)ml,(55±15)cm H2O and (60±17)cm H2O respectively, also significantly higher than those before the treatment (131±30ml and 140±35ml,5±3 cm H2O and 6±4 cm H2O). However, detrusor leakage point pressures were (6±2)cm H2O and (6±3)cm H2O respectively, significantly lower than those before the treatment (28 ±9 cm H2 O and 25 ± 6 cm H2O). Except for physical function and bodily pain, the all domains of quality of life in both men and women patients were significantly lower than those in control group. Only 17 % of men and 7 % of women believed "their health is better than that one year ago". There was no significant difference in the remission rate between men and women (89% vs 76%) in the patients with RUUTD before treatment. Conclusions It is suggested that urodynamic parameters are significantly improved. Many domains of quality of life were not improved and the reduced quality of life still occurred in NSCD patients with NUB using enterocystoplasty and CISC.

Objective To investigate the short-term efficacy of pelvic floor electrical stimulation (PFES) and pelvic floor training (PFT) for female with idiopathic detrusor overactivity (IDO) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Methods PFES and PFT were performed on 70 women (average age 40±7 years old) with IDO and SUI for twelve weeks. Urinary diary, International Continence In-quiring Committee's Questionnaire (ICI-Q-SF) scores were recorded and urodynamic study was per-formed before and after the treatment. Results Fifty women (71%) finally completed treatment for twelve weeks. Urinary incontinence disappeared in 8 (16%), detrusor overactivity disappeared in 10 (20 %). The leakage was not found in 6 (12 %) in leakage point pressure measurement. Moreover, the frequency of voiding (28±5 times/72 h), frequency of leakage (10±5 times/72 h), total scores of ICI-Q-SF(10±3), max detrusor uninhibited contraction pressure (18±8 cmH20) and detrusor unin-hibited contraction duration (8±3 s) were significantly lower than those before treatment (43±8 times/72 h, 20±6 times/72 h, 17±3, 27±9 cm H2O and 13±6s,P<0.01). Maximal voided vol-ume(225±48 ml), normal desired cystometric capacity (210±48 ml), maximal cystometric capacity (247±48 ml), Valsalva leak point pressure (94±11 cm H2O) and maximal urethral closure pressure (59±8 cm H2O) were significantly higher than those before treatment (159±37 ml, 141±39ml, 178±36ml, 81±15 cm H2O and 55±8 cm H2O, P<0.01). The effective rate during three months follow up was 60%, similar to time after treatment (P>0.05). Conclusions Pelvic floor electrical stimulation and pelvic floor training could be a useful therapy to treat women with IDO and SUI. It is both convenient and economical.

Objective To evaluate the impact of age on the bladder-urethral function and the outcome of transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in the elderly men with benign prostatic hyperpiasia (BPH). Methods The elderly men with BPH undergoing TURP were divided into young elderly group [n=158, mean age of 68 + 4 years] and elderly group [n=47, mean age of 80± 3 years]. All patients were evaluated by International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). Quality of life (QOL). transrectal ultrasound and urodynamic examination one week before TURP, and they were followed by IPSS, QOL. free uroflowmetry and postvoid residual urine volume (PVR) measurement at 3 months after TURP. Results The incidence rates of detrusor overactivity, low compliance bladder, detrusor underactivity and benign prostatic obstruction in elderly group were 70%, 34%, 19% and 77% respectively, and they were significantly higher than in young elderly group (42%, 18%, 6.3% and 58%,x2 =10.623, 4.328, 5.637,4.771,P<0.05). However, the mean max detrusor voided pressure [62±29) cm H2O] was significantly lower in elderly group than in young elderly group [(76±22) cm H2O,t =3.265, P<0.05]. Moreover, the mean prostatic length, static functional length and bladder neck pressure were (52±8) mm, (63±11) mm and (36 15) cm H2O respectively, they were significantly higher in elderly group than in young elderly group [(47±7)mm, (59±6) mm and (25±13) cm H2O, t=4.157, 3.388 and 4.912,P<0.05]. The IPSS, QOL and PVR were significantly lower after TURP than beforeTURP, and the max flow rate (MFR) was significantly higher after TURP than before TURP in both groups (tyoung elderly group= 19.744, 64.671, 23.342 and 27.504;t elderly group= 27.308, 19.311,9.694 and 11.671, P<0.05). However, the MFR was significantly lower in elderly group than in young elderly group, and PVR and QOL were significantly higher in elderly group than in young elderly group after TURP (t=3.493, 15.245 and 10.750, P<0.05). Conclusions The risk of bladder-urethral dysfunction is increased and the therapeutic effects of TURP is decreased with ageing in the elderly men with BPH. It would be beneficial to have an urodynamic study for their treatment.
