Aim: To determine the discriminatory power of penile urethral compression-release index (PCRI), clinical prostate score (CLIPS) and bladder outlet obstruction index 2 (BOON2) for the detection of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), and the associated bladder abnormality in patients with benign prostatic enlargement (BPE). Material and methods: In study was included of 135 patients with proven BPE underwent urodynamic measurement (UDM) and PCR maneuver. PCR Index was calculated following the formula: (Qs-Qss)/Qss x 100(%). CLIPS score was calculated based on non-invasive variables (prostate volume, maximal urinary flow, residual urine and voided volume), while BOON2 was calculated using the formula intravesical prostate protrusion (IPP)-3 x Qmax-0.2 x mean voided volume. UDM results were plotted on Schaefer and URA nomograms. Results: A comparative analysis was made using ROC curves. The area under the curve (AUC) for PCRI is 0.85 (PTP 91.3%), while AUC for CLIPS and BOON2 is 0.8 (PTP 77.6%) and 0.82 (PTP 74.5%), respectively. PCRI with the cut-off point of 96% clearly distinguishes obstructed patients with normocontractile detrusor and the presence of detrusor overactivity (DO), versus those unobstructed. CLIPS (>10) shows good BOO prediction, but without the possibility of distinguishing between detrusor contractility grade and the occurrence of DO. BOON2 has shown that impaired contractility has influence on this number in obstructed patients. Conclusion: PCRI is a very good noninvasive urodynamic test for a group-wise detection of BOO in patients with BPE and associated bladder co-morbidities; it is therefore superior in comparison with to CLIPS or BOON2.
目的:探讨阴茎尿道压释指数(PCRI)、临床前列腺评分(CLIPS)和膀胱出口梗阻指数2 (BOON2)对良性前列腺增大(BPE)患者膀胱出口梗阻(BOO)及相关膀胱异常的鉴别能力。材料和方法:本研究纳入135例经证实的BPE患者进行尿动力学测量(UDM)和PCR操作。PCR指数计算公式为:(Qs-Qss)/Qss × 100(%)。CLIPS评分基于非侵入性变量(前列腺体积、最大尿流量、残余尿量和排尿量)计算,BOON2计算公式为膀胱内前列腺突出(IPP)-3 x Qmax-0.2 x平均排尿量。UDM结果绘制在Schaefer图和URA图上。结果:采用ROC曲线进行比较分析。PCRI的曲线下面积(AUC)为0.85 (PTP为91.3%),CLIPS和BOON2的AUC分别为0.8 (PTP为77.6%)和0.82 (PTP为74.5%)。PCRI的分界点为96%,可以清楚地区分出逼尿肌正常收缩和存在逼尿肌过度活动(DO)的梗阻患者与未梗阻患者。CLIPS(>10)显示出良好的BOO预测,但无法区分逼尿肌收缩等级和DO的发生。BOON2表明,在梗阻患者中,收缩功能受损会影响这一数字。结论:PCRI是一种非常好的无创尿动力学检测方法,可用于BPE和相关膀胱合并症患者的BOO群体检测;因此,与CLIPS或BOON2相比,它更优越。

Introduction: Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a common lower-extremity complication in patients with diabetes mellitus. A novel DFU treatment is tested by using an ointment containing as healing agent olive oil isopod Ceratothoa oestroidesextract. Case report: A 58 years old obese man,smoker, with a history of unregulated Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, peripheral neuropathy and Hodgkin lymphoma was referred to Athens–Greece university hospital Laikon. The patient presented clinically with a lower extremity DFU and peripheral neuropathy with dysesthesia and disturbed sensation of hot and cold. He was treated with an ointment containing C. oestroides extract for five months, without any antimicrobial treatment. Therapy was evaluated by measurement of the transepidermal water loss, skin hydration, photo documentation and planimetry. At each patient’s visit, DFU presented a satisfactory healing process. Five months after treatment initiation the patient had complete healing of his DFU. Blood tests after treatment revealed a significant reduction of the levels of the inflammatory markers. Ulcer cultures did not reveal any microbial development neither before nor after treatment. Conclusion: The administration of the C. oestroides extract ointment proved to be effective in this case. Although these results should be further investigated, the reported case suggests a novel option for the management of neuropathic diabetic foot ulcers, especially in patients with severe co-morbidities.

Introduction: Cataract surgery is a widely used procedure around the world. After cataract surgery, one of the important points is that oxidative stress may cause postoperative corneal edema and vision loss. Aim: In this study, we aim to reduce the oxidative stress and related conditions that may develop during intraoperative and postoperative FAKO + IOL implantation. Material and Methods: Total amount of 32 patients with cataract were included to the study. The patients were classified as two groups randomly and the same surgical procedure was applied to the patients in both groups, except using visudrop. Group I was defined as a control group and routine FAKO + IOL implantation surgery was performed. In Group II, after the sideport was opened at the beginning of the operation, 0.5 cc visudrop (coenzyme q + vitamin E + hypermellosis) was given to the anterior camara. After the operation, 0.5 cc visudrop was also given to the anterior camara. Postoperative examination findings were compared statistically. Results: In Group II, postoperative 1st day and postoperative 7th day visual acuities were significantly higher than in Group I. In Group II, postoperative 1st day and postoperative 7th day visual acuity increments were significantly higher than in Group I. In Group I, postoperative 1st day and 7th day pachymetry value increments were significantly higher than in Group II. Conclusion: Using visudrop during the FAKO + IOL implantation may be an effective method for postoperative corneal edema and vision.

Introduction: Dacryocystitis is an infection of lacremical sac due to obstruction of nasolacrimal duct which has primary or secondary causes. Idiopathic inflammatory obstruction is the primary cause. Trauma, infection, inflammation, neoplasia, and mechanical obstruction are secondary one. Aim: The objective of this study is determination of bacterial samples from patients with chronic acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Methods: This cross-sectional study was contained 90 patients with dacryocystitis from 2010 to 2011, in Besat hospital. Convenience sampling in sterile condition sampling was performed by sterile swab from the pus out of the lacrimal sac. Blood agar, EMB, chocolate agar, and thioglycolate broth were used for bacterial cultivation. Various antibiotics were used for antibiotic resistance study. Finally, statistical analysis was done by SPSS ver. 15. Results: In this study, the mean age of participants was 49.36 ± 12.18 years. Number of male and female patients was equal and Sampling was performed in 53.3% of patients from the right eye. The most frequent bacteria were Staphylococcus, E. coli, and Enterobacteriaceae, respectively. Also, our results show most of bacteria obtained from patients eye pus are sensitive to chloramphenicol and the most antibiotic resistance was for co-trimoxazole. Conclusion: Our results illustrated gram-positive bacteria have an important role in dacryocystitis which is confirm previous studies. Although our results indicated chloramphenicol is the best choice for treatment process, but it is notable due to the variety of bacteria which can cause this disease, identification of bacterial contamination can be a great help to choose the best treatment process.
