OBJECTIVE: To evaluate in a prospective study the medium- to long-term outcome of a policy of conservatively managing acute urinary retention (AUR), arising solely by bladder outlet obstruction caused by benign prostatic enlargement (BPE), and to identify the factors favouring a positive outcome of a trial without catheter (TWOC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: All men admitted as an emergency with primary AUR caused by BPE (from August 1997 to March 2000) underwent a TWOC. The following variables were recorded; the nature and duration of any preceding lower urinary tract symptoms, previous episodes of retention, concomitant anticholinergic medication, coexisting constipation, alcohol as a precipitating cause of AUR, previous prostatectomy, confirmed urinary tract infection, residual urine drained on catheterization and prostate size, as determined by a digital rectal examination (DRE) carried out by one consultant urologist in all patients. Those voiding successfully were followed up prospectively using the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), quality-of-life score, urinary flow rate measurement and ultrasonographic measurement of the postvoid residual (PVR). RESULTS: Of the 40 men with AUR, 22 (55%) voided spontaneously after removing the catheter and continued to do so with mean peak flow rates of 12.2 mL/s and mean PVRs of 69.6 mL over a follow-up of 8-24 months. These patients remained asymptomatic, with a mean IPSS of 5.2 and quality-of-life score of 0.9. These men had a mean prostatic size of 15.9 g and a mean catheterized residual volume of 814 mL, while in those who had an unsuccessful TWOC the mean prostate size was 27.5 g (P = 0.006) and a mean catheterized residual volume of 1062 mL (P = 0.09). Prostate size as assessed by the DRE was the most significant factor in predicting the outcome of a TWOC. CONCLUSION: A TWOC is justified in the long-term for men presenting with AUR caused by BPE. Prostate size is the most important factor for predicting the outcome of such a trial.

The barium enema in constipation: comparison with rectal manometry and biopsy to exclude Hirschsprung's disease after the neonatal period.

BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of Hirschsprung's disease is usually made in neonates but often considered in older infants and children with constipation: these children may be referred for barium enema. Since it is widely accepted that a normal barium enema does not exclude Hirschsprung's disease, some children, after a normal enema, undergo more invasive procedures such as rectal manometry or biopsy. Our study asked how frequently a diagnosis of Hirschsprung's disease was made by biopsy or manometry in children who had normal barium enema. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed the medical records and barium enemas of 54 patients older than 28 days with constipation or difficulty passing stool who had a barium enema followed by manometry and/or biopsy. RESULTS: Forty-eight patients had normal enemas: 24 of those patients had biopsies, 16 had manometry, and 8 both manometry and biopsy. Only 1 had manometry suggestive of Hirschsprung's disease, confirmed by biopsy. Six patients had abnormal enemas. Five had biopsy and manometry compatible with Hirschsprung's disease; one had a normal biopsy and manometry study. CONCLUSION: The barium enema is a good initial screening test for Hirschsprung's disease in severely constipated children since it correlates well with manometry and biopsy. The enema is particularly useful in centers without easy access to pediatric gastroenterology services, and a normal enema in this setting allows the continuation of medical therapy with further evaluation only if there is a lack of response. An abnormal enema, however, requires referral to a facility equipped to perform confirmatory manometry or biopsy.

Comparison of the efficacy and safety of oral granisetron plus dexamethasone with intravenous ondansetron plus dexamethasone to control nausea and vomiting induced by moderate/severe emetogenic chemotherapy

BACKGROUND: Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting can affect cancer patients' compliance with cytotoxic chemotherapy. Currently, there are some new antiemetic therapies for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced emesis. A single institution, randomized, open, parallel trial was done to compare oral granisetron plus intravenous (i.v.) dexamethasone with intravenous ondansetron for the prevention of moderate or severe emetogenic chemotherapy-induced acute and delayed emesis. METHODS: Fifty-one cancer patients were treated with moderate/severe emetogenic chemotherapy and randomized to receive either oral granisetron 1 mg twice daily or i.v. ondansetron 8 mg every 8 hours combined with i.v. dexamethasone 10 mg on the day of chemotherapy. The efficacy and safety of the two antiemetic regimens were compared. RESULTS: Oral granisetron plus i.v. dexamethasone had comparable antiemetic efficacy for the prevention of nausea in the first 24-hour period after initiation of chemotherapy compared with intravenous ondansetron plus i.v. dexamethasone. The complete response of antiemesis in the first 24-hour period after initiation of antiemetic therapy between granisetron and ondansetron were 84.0% (95% CI, 62.9%-95.6%) and 84.6 (95% CI, 64.0%-97.5%). The complete response for delayed emesis after initiation of antiemetic therapy between granisetron and ondansetron were 16.0% (95% CI, 4.5%-36.1%) and 19.2% (95% CI, 6.8%-40.7%0. There was diarrhea in 12% of patients receiving granisetron therapy and constipation in 23.1% of the ondansetron group. CONCLUSIONS: Oral granisetron plus i.v. dexamethasone and i.v. ondansetron plus i.v. dexamethasone are potentially equally effective antiemetic agents in the prevention of moderate or severe emetogenic chemotherapy-induced acute or delayed emesis. Oral granisetron with dexamethasone appears to be a suitable alternative antiemetic agent in cancer patients who receive moderately or severely emetogenic chemotherapy.

Hair loss is a problem in modern soceity. Examining the factors of hair growth may shed light on how hair loss might occur. How long can hair grow before it stops growing eventually if it does? Given that the hair growth rate is quite uniform and constant, somewhere between 0.3-0.5 millimeters per day, it's believed that the length of anagen, the growth phase, differs among individuals, and this is the major determinant to the maximum hair length. For some individuals, anagen may last ten years. Of course the length of the anagen is governed by genes, and the genetic background of the individuals. Non-genetic factors such as nutritional condition, weather, seasonal changes (hair may grow a bit faster during winter), taking medications, health condition may of course influence the rate of hair growth as well as hair loss. The shape of the hair, straight or curly, is dependent on the shape of the follicle. A circular or round hair follicle would generate straight hair, while the follicle with oval or elliptical shapes (in its cross-section) would produce a curly hair.














DHEA is a natural hormone, and it is produced in our body by the adrenal glands. DHEA has been suggested to provide numerous potential benefits. DHEA (or dehydroepiandrosterone) is converted into androgens (male hormones) or estrogens (female hormones) in the cells.
