Active clinical trials for "Urinary Bladder, Overactive"

To investigate whether prolonged period of treatment (6 months) can have a better therapeutic outcome than conventional period (3 months) of antimuscarinics.

It's a double blind, placebo controlled study to assess the efficacy of Propantheline Bromide to treat overactive bladder (OAB) in HTLV 1 infected patients. We think that the treatment of the OAB with Propantheline could reduce nocturia and frequency in sixty percent.

This experiment is expected to understand the benefits of different settings of electrical stimulation in the treatment of overactive bladder.

This research study is studying MenHealth Mobile Uroflowmetry as a diagnostic tool for LUTS (lower urinary tract symptoms), a group of conditions involving the bladder, urinary sphincter, urethra and the prostate.

The aim of the study (OVERACT_V1) is to verify if the isometric contraction of ankle plantarflexor and Hamstring muscles, induces a significant reduction of overactive bladder symptoms in patients with Multiple sclerosis.

To identify new, simple and reliable biomarkers for bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC) for diagnosis of this disease.

No one really knows what causes overactive bladder syndrome (OAB). Urinary tract infection (UTI)causes similar symptoms to OAB with the difference being the presence of bacteria, as evidenced by routine microbiology cultures. Recent work by the group on the genitourinary microbiome (GUM) has shown that female urine, even in the absence of culture evidence of bacteria does have evidence of bacterial DNA. Bacterial 16S rRNA can be isolated from urine and sequenced to identify bacterial species present in urine. From this the investigators can hypothesize that urinary bacteria contribute to urinary symptoms and that there is a difference in the bacterial communities in the urine of women who respond to Solifenacin, a drug used to treat OAB, versus those that do not.

The purpose of this study is to test whether using belladonna & opiate suppositories (B&Os) can improve patient discomfort during Onabotulinumtoxin A (BoNT) injection into the bladder for treatment of overactive bladder, neurogenic detrusor overactivity, or interstitial cystitis.

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.

The question is whether vesical training and TMAP can be used in isolation without treatment of overactive bladder syndrome? ALSO will be evaluated in urinary symptoms, a function of the MAP, a quality of life and a satisfaction of the women with the treatment offered.
