Active clinical trials for "Enuresis"

This observational cohort study is aimed at determining changes in the cytokine expression profile as well as the urinary and vaginal microbiome of women undergoing midurethral sling placement for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence.

This study will be conducted to assess biomechanical alignment of lower limb as a predictor for the stress urinary incontinence in the postmenopausal women. 300 postmenopausual women will be selected suffering from stress unrinary incontinence . Their age ranges from 60 to 70 years old. Their BMI is not exceeding 30 kg/m2.

Full ambulatory polysomnography at home performed two nights in 30 healthy children and one night in 30 children with mono-symptomatic nocturnal enuresis (15 with polyuria and 15 without polyuria). The children will be aged 7-14 years of age. The sleep will be evaluated on sleep quality, number of periodic limb movements per hour, blood pressure and pulse, beat to beat variation by electrocardiography during sleep, respiration during sleep, nocturnal urine production, and enuresis episodes.

Continent women have an intact internal urethral sphincter that extends from the bladder neck down to the perineal membrane. The internal urethral sphincter is a strong collagen muscle tissue cylinder lined by urothelium. On ultrasound scanning tissue echo will be detected torn internal urethral sphincter will not stand sudden rise of abdominal pressure. Three dimensional ultrasound assessment of the internal urethral sphincter is very sensitive and specific for the diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence.

Concurrent treatment of endometrial cancer and SUI may improve QOL, emotional and physical health and decrease costs for both patients and the health care system. At the time of endometrial cancer diagnosis, not only are women evaluated by a gynecologist and/or a gynecologic oncologist, but the majority will undergo surgery within weeks of their diagnosis. Thus, urinary incontinence could easily be identified, a referral made, and concurrent surgery performed. This would spare the patient two surgeries, decrease the emotional distress associated with SUI symptoms, decrease the costs associated with SUI for the patient and possibly improve overall quality of life. The proposed study will compare the quality of life and clinical outcomes among women with endometrial cancer and SUI that have concurrent surgery to women that do not have concurrent surgery. The findings of our proposed research will provide valuable information necessary for woman and clinicians to make decisions regarding the treatment of SUI, including evidence regarding the risks and benefits of performing concurrent endometrial cancer and SUI surgery.

The patients will be submited to a vaginal squeeze pressure measurements before and after surgeries for urinary incontinence.

The investigators aim to study the prevalence of urinary incontinence in women who live in the riverside community in the state of Amapa (The Bailique Island) and compare it to the prevalence of urinary incontinence in women who live in the urban region -Macapa-the capital city of the Amapa State - Brazil.
