Influence of intravesical potassium on pelvic floor activity in women with recurrent urinary tract infections: comparative urodynamics might lead to enhanced detection of dysfunctional voiding.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of intravesical potassium on pelvic floor activity (PFA) during voiding in women with recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs) by using comparative urodynamics (CUD). METHODS CUD was conducted in 49 women (mean age 34.6 years, range 15-82) with rUTI. Every

Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy mediated by methylene blue and potassium iodide to treat urinary tract infection in a female rat model.

Drug-resistant urinary tract infections (UTIs) are difficult and sometimes impossible to treat. Many UTIs are caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). We developed an intact rat model of UTI, by catheterizing female rats and introducing a bioluminescent UPEC strain into the female rat

Comparative study of ticarcillin plus clavulanate potassium versus piperacillin in the treatment of hospitalized patients with urinary tract infections.

Only registered users can translate articles

The efficacy and safety of ticarcillin plus clavulanate potassium and piperacillin were compared in a clinical trial of 78 hospitalized patients with urinary tract infections. There were 37 evaluable patients in the ticarcillin plus clavulanate potassium-treated group and 39 in the

Prediction of Cortical Defect Using C-Reactive Protein and Urine Sodium to Potassium Ratio in Infants with Febrile Urinary Tract Infection.

OBJECTIVE We investigated whether C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, urine protein-creatinine ratio (uProt/Cr), and urine electrolytes can be useful for discriminating acute pyelonephritis (APN) from other febrile illnesses or the presence of a cortical defect on 99mTc dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA)

Bioavailability and metabolism of potassium phosphanilate in laboratory animals and humans.

Only registered users can translate articles

Phosphanilic acid is an antibacterial agent with a mode of action and antibacterial spectrum similar to those of sulfamethoxazole, with the exception that it has potent antipseudomonal activity. Bioavailability studies in rats (50, 300, and 600 mg/kg, oral and subcutaneous), dogs (50, 150, and 450

Amoxicillin-clavulanic acid versus cefaclor in the treatment of urinary tract infections and their effects on the urogenital and rectal flora.

Only registered users can translate articles

In a double-blind randomized study, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (AM-CL) was compared with cefaclor for the treatment of acute urinary tract infections in 107 college women. A total of 53 patients received amoxicillin (250 mg) and clavulanic acid as the potassium salt (125 mg), and 54 received

Discrimination of culture negative pyelonephritis in children with suspected febrile urinary tract infection and negative urine culture results.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND We investigated whether the C-reactive protein (CRP) level, urine electrolytes, and urine sodium-potassium ratio (uNa/K) could be useful markers for discriminating children with culture negative pyelonephritis (CNP) from children with suspected febrile urinary tract infection (fUTI) and

Timentin versus piperacillin in the treatment of hospitalized patients with urinary tract infections.

Only registered users can translate articles

The efficacy and safety of Timentin (ticarcillin plus potassium clavulanate) and piperacillin were compared in a clinical trial of 78 hospitalized patients with urinary tract infections. There were 37 evaluable patients in the Timentin-treated group and 39 in the piperacillin-treated group. The 43

High-power potassium-titanyl-phosphate laser photoselective vaporization prostatectomy for symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser photoselective vaporization prostatectomy (PVP) is a relatively new technology for the management of lower urinary-tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We review our initial experience. METHODS We prospectively

Treatment of urinary tract infections with a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 10-day course of amoxicillin (250 mg)-potassium clavulanate (125 mg) was administered three times daily to 116 female college students with urinary tract infections. All of the bacterial isolates from these patients were susceptible to amoxicillin-potassium clavulanate in vitro; only 81.0% were

The pathogenesis of recurrent urinary tract infection: the bowel, bladder hypokalemia connection.

Only registered users can translate articles

A conceptual approach to the understanding of the pathogenesis of recurrent nonobstructive urinary tract infections is presented. Abnormal colonic function is associated with potassium wastage which alters smooth muscle function of both the bowel and bladder. Hypokalemia additionally results in the

Effect of potassium citrate therapy on stone recurrence and residual fragments after shockwave lithotripsy in lower caliceal calcium oxalate urolithiasis: a randomized controlled trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of potassium citrate treatment in preventing stone recurrences and residual fragments after shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) for lower pole calcium oxalate urolithiasis. METHODS One hundred ten patients who underwent SWL because of lower caliceal stones and who were

Amoxicillin-potassium clavulanate, a beta-lactamase-resistant antibiotic combination.

Only registered users can translate articles

The chemistry, microbiology, pharmacokinetics, therapeutic use, adverse effects, and dosage of amoxicillin-potassium clavulanate, a beta-lactamase-resistant antibiotic combination, are reviewed. Clavulanic acid is a "suicide" inhibitor of bacterial beta-lactamase enzymes and has been effective in

The hypokalemic, bowel, bladder, headache relationship; a new syndrome. The role of the potassium ammonia axis.

Only registered users can translate articles

A conceptual approach that relates vascular headaches, bowel and bladder dysfunction to abnormalities of the "ammonia potassium axis" is presented. Hypokalemia alters smooth muscle function of both the bowel and bladder and results in the elaboration of an alkaline urine. The occurrence of an
