Abstract

Objective: To compare the effects of verapamil on the contralateral kidney affected by unilateral ureter obstruction. Material & method: The right ureter of oryctalagus cuniculus rabbits, were obstructed surgically with silk suture material, and kept alive for 14 days. One group was obstructed without other treatment, one group was given verapamil from day 7 until day 14 of the obstruction. One group was obstructed and given verapamil from day 0 through day 14. One group was given a sham operation as a control group. The contralateral kidney of all groups were harvested and processed with ApopTag. The increase of apoptotic tubular cells compared to the control group was then analyzed between each group. Results: The highest increase in apoptotic cells was in the obstructed group without verapamil, but increased significantly compared to control (p<0,001). The groups which received verapamil had lower increase of apoptotic tubular cells, in the group given verapamil for 14 days lower than the group which received verapamil only for 7 days. Both the 7 to 14 and the 0 to 14 groups were significantly lower than the group without verapamil (p=0,035 and p<0,001 respectively). Conclusion: verapamil has a protective effect on the contralateral kidney by inhibiting apoptosis caused by unilateral ureter obstruction. While the definitive treatment for urinary obstruction is to relieve it, verapamil can protect the kidney in the mean time.

Abstract

Objective: The study aims to study the difference between urinary culture before and after indwelling catheter insertion and also the difference in positive bacterial culture rate between urine and catheter swab at the 7th and 14th days. Material & method: The subject of this study were patients who used indwelling catheters in urology outpatient department. The sample was allocated into two groups of 10 patients each, 7 and 14 days group. Sterile urinary culture was initially checked before catheter insertion. After 7 and 14 days of catheterisation respectively, urine and intraluminal catheter swab were performed upon removal. All samples were examined in Microbiology Department using McConkey and Nutrient agar (Mayo technique – T/T33). After 24 hours incubation, bacterial colonies were identified. Results: All urinary cultures obtained before the study were sterile, after 7 days catheter insertion two cultures (20%) remained negative and the remainder (80%) became positive. McNemar test result was 0,008 (p<0,05). In 14 days group after catheter insertion only one (10%) remained negative while 9 others were positive for bacteria. Mcnemar test shows 0,004 (p<0,05). The urinary and catheter swab culture is not significantly different in 7 days of indwelling catheterization patients (0,500; p>0,05) and also in 14 days patients (1,000, p>0,005). While the catheter swab culture is significantly positive after administering the urinary catheter in 7 and 14 days of catheterization (0,002; p<0,05). Conclusion: There was significant difference in urinary culture positive rate before and after catheter insertion in 7th and 14th day. Bacteriuria rose sharply after urinary catheter insertion despite aseptic procedure. There was no difference in culture positive rate between urine and catheter swab at 7th day as well as 14th day.

Abstract

Objective: To study the relation of the Aging Male Symptom Score (AMS score) with age groups, and to find the age when the AMS score increases. Material & method: In all, 347 patients with age beginning at 50 years underwent an interview with the AMS Score questionnaire, then they were divided according to age in groups, less than or equal to 50 years, 51 – 55 years, 56 – 60 years, and more than 60 years. Results: In the age group less than or equal to 50 years, there were 26 men (7,5%). With an abnormal AMS psychology, there were 18 men, with abnormal AMS somatovegetative score there were 20 men, with an abnormal AMS sexual score 20 men, and with abnormal total AMS Score 14 men. In the age group 51 – 55 years, there were 146 men (42,07%), with an abnormal AMS psychology in 75 men, with abnormal AMS somatovegetative score 114 men, abnormal AMS sexual in 123 men, and abnormal total AMS Score in 71 men. In age group 56 - 60 years there were 48 men (13,83%), abnormal AMS psychology in 35 men, abnormal AMS somatovegetative score in 44 men, abnormal AMS sexual in 45 men, and abnormal total AMS Score in 35 men. In the age group of more than 60 years, there were 127 men (36,6%), abnormal AMS psychology was found in 87 men, abnormal AMS somatovegetative score in 112 men, abnormal AMS total sexual score 122 men, and abnormal total AMS score was in 96 men. All of the AMS score values significantly increased after 55 years old, p value at AMS psychology was 0,005, AMS somatovegetative was 0,000, AMS sexual was 0,000, and at total AMS Score was 0,000. To define the age when AMS score increases. The conclusion was that AMS psychology values begin to increase after 55 years (sensitivity 69,71, specificity 45,93), AMS somatovegetative values increase after 55 years (sensitivity 89,14, specificity 22,09), and total AMS score value begins to increase at 55 years (sensitivity 74,86, specificity 50,58). However, AMS sexual value increase at 50 years (sensitivity 90,34, specificity 23,08). Conclusion: All of the AMS score values increase significantly at 55 years.

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate problems in diagnosis and management of congenital hydronephrosis. Material & methods: This study was retrospective. Data was collected from medical records of patients with congenital hydronephrosis, which were hospitalized or went to urologic outpatient clinic at Ciptomangunkusumo Hospital from January 1999 to December 2008 and Harapan Kita Maternal and Pediatric Hospital from January 2004 to December 2008. Data was analyzed with SPSS programme version 13.0. Statistical analysis was performed to find the relationship between age at diagnosis and kidney function (Mann-Whitney test) and between age at diagnosis and nephrectomy rate (Chi-Square test). Results: There were 15 patients who presented because of antenatal diagnosis. Of the 145 patients, we could collect antenatal history only from 63 patients.  Obstetricians provided antenatal care in 56 out of 63 patients. Antenatal ultrasound was performed in only 59 out of 63 patients and only 44,07% (26 patients) with hydronephrosis was detected antenatally. Eleven out of 26 antenatally diagnosed patients came to our clinic at a later age. Three standard studies (postnatal ultrasound, voiding cystourethrogram, and renal scintigraphy) were performed only in 12 out of 145 patients (8,27%). Ultrasound was performed in 108 patients (74,5%), voiding cystourethrogram in 79 patients (54,5%), and renal scintigraphy in only 26 ptients (17,9%). The suggested management was conducted in 115 patients; operative management in 95 patients (82,61%) and conservative treatment in 20 patients (17,39%). The most common operative procedures were ureteroneocystostomy, pyeloplasty, nephrectomy, and posterior urethral valveablation. Mean serum creatinine in below 12 months old group and above 12 months old group was 0,78±0,93mg/dl dan 1,03±0,88 mg/dl respectively(p<0,05). There was no significant difference in nephrectomy rate in both age groups (p>0,05). Nephrectomy was performed in 16 patients, with the most common indication was grade IV hydronephrosis with thin parenchyma in 11 patients (68,75%) and the most common etiology was UPJ obstruction in 10 patients (62,5%). We can only collect follow up data from 73 out of 115 managed patients (63,48%). Urinalysis, ultrasound/voiding cystourethrogram, and renal function studies were not routinely conducted during follow up. Conclusion: The management of congenital hydronephrosis in Indonesia needs improvements in antenatal care standards, particularly obstetric ultrasound, to improve early detection of congenital hydronephrosis. Better education for parents about the importance of follow up is needed, especially for antenatally diagnosed patients. A consensus regarding diagnostic tools used in managing congenital hydronephrosis must be established among urologists, pediatricians, and radiologists.

Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effect of estrogen on wistar’s vaginal epithelium. Material & method: We divided 30 female wistars into three groups, ten wistars underwent bilateral ovariectomy, 10 wistars underwent bilateral ovariectomy, and estrogen replacement and 10 wistars as control. The second group received estradiol 1 mg/kg/day, directly after ovariectomy. After 4 weeks the vagina was then harvested and stained with hematoxylin-eosin to evaluate the thickness of epithelial layer of vagina. A pair T-test was use for statistical analysis. Results: Estrogen ablation decreased the thickness of epithelial layer in wistar’s vagina. The mean thickness of epithelial layer in vagina were 3, 5, and 10 for each group respectively. The mean epithelial layer of the first group as well as the second group showed significant difference compared to control group (p>0,05), while the first group showed insignificant difference compared to the second group. Conclusion: Estrogen ablation seems to decrease the thickness of vaginal epithelium, while estrogen replacement revealed insignificant effect.
