Prostatitis is a common medical diagnosis. The etiology of this symptomatic syndrome can be an acute or chronic bacterial infection, a noninfectious initiator (the most common cause), or iatrogenic heat or radiation; the syndrome may coexist with benign prostatic hyperplasia. Alpha-blockers have a role in the treatment of the prostatitis syndromes. In Category I, acute bacterial prostatitis, alpha-blockers have been shown to possibly ameliorate obstructive and irritative voiding symptoms. In Category II, chronic bacterial prostatitis, alpha-blockers seem to reduce the risk of clinical and bacteriological recurrence. In Category III, chronic pelvic pain syndrome, alpha-blockers improve symptoms and quality of life. Alpha-blockers also seem to ameliorate the symptoms and reduce the risk of acute urinary retention in patients who suffer from either heat- or radiation-induced prostatic inflammation. Alpha-blockers improve lower urinary tract symptoms, including pain, in patients who are diagnosed with both prostatitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia. Evidence has proven there is definitely a role for alpha-blockers in the management of the prostatitis syndromes. 相似文献

It has been demonstrated that patients showing symptoms of chronic bacterial prostatitis but culture-negative prostate-specific specimens can benefit from administration of antibacterial agents. This suggests that organisms that are not isolated in the routine practice may be responsible for prostate infection in an undefined fraction of subjects. Anaerobic bacteria have been proposed to play a pathogenic role in CBP, on the basis of studies describing clinical remission after eradication of pathogens like Peptostreptococcus spp or Bacterioides spp from prostatic secretions of symptomatic patients, or the significant association between prostatic infection by anaerobes and the presence of inflammation markers in prostatic secretions.In this paper, we report in detail a case of severely symptomatic chronic prostatitis in a patient with evidence of infection by Peptostreptococcus. We also report for the first time that treatment with the 3rd generation fluoroquinolone moxifloxacin was successful in eradicating the pathogen and in causing dramatic resolution of signs and symptoms of chronic bacterial prostatitis.The strict association between eradication of Peptostreptococcus and the rapid disappearance of clinical signs/symptoms points to a causative role of this anaerobe in the chronic bacterial prostatitis case described in this report. 相似文献

The E.A.U. (European Association of Urology) published its Guidelines on Urinary and Male Genital Tract Infections in 2001. In the chapter devoted to prostatitis, epididymitis and orchitis, the E.A.U suggests a classification distinguishing prostatitis (usual clinical picture and demonstrated infection) from chronic pelvic pain syndrome (same clinical picture without demonstrable infection). Prostatitis is divided into three categories: acute bacterial prostatitis (type I), chronic bacterial prostatitis (type II) and asymptomatic inflammatory prostatitis (histological prostatitis, type IV). Type I and II prostatitis are considered here. The E.A.U. guidelines do not mention recurrent prostatitis. The authors discuss whether or not recurrent prostatitis should be distinguished from chronic prostatitis by raising three questions: does the literature provide precise data in favour of this distinction? Does this theoretical distinction have any practical consequences? Is this distinction feasible, especially in general practice? The Stanford sesearch team (Stamey and Shortliffe) has provided documented bacteriological data demonstrating recurrence of prostatitis with different bacteria in some cases and persistence of the same pathogen in other cases. The main consequence of these two situations concern treatment (which antibiotics? for how long?) On the basis of personal unpublished data, the authors discuss the feasibility of this distinction in general practice. They show that, in the case of several recurrences of prostatitis per year, it may be difficult to distinguish recurrent prostatitis from chronic prostatitis. They also show that the duration of symptoms is not a sufficiently discriminant factor and that bacteriological findings should be considered. In conclusion, recurrent prostatitis is a particular disease which should be distinguished from chronic prostatitis. The main consequence of this distinction concerns several unresolved questions about the therapy of recurrent prostatitis. In general practice, the distinction may be difficult when only routine bacteriological tests are available. The use of Meares and Stamey’s four glass technique is unusual in this setting, making it difficult to confirm prostatic disinfection. 相似文献

Prostatitis is frequent and appears to corresponds to a very heterogeneous group of diseases. The diagnosis of acute prostatitis has always been well defined, while that of chronic prostatitis has always been much more difficult. The conventional classification distinguishes acute prostatitis comprising a systemic infectious syndrome, accompanied by alteration of the general state, voiding disorders and especially a painful prostate on digital rectal examination, and chronic prostatitis corresponding to all other diseases associating voiding disorders, perineal or pelvic pain and possible urethral discharge. More recently, a more objective classification, based on bacteriological and histological criteria derived from analysis of urine and prostatic liquid was proposed by the NIH (National Institutes of Health). This classification defines 4 categories: acute bacterial prostatitis (category 1), chronic bacterial prostatitis (category 2), non-bacterial prostatitis (category 3A), prostatodynia (category 3B). Well conducted treatment appears to be very important to prevent recurrence and the development of chronic prostatitis. The presence of an urethral stricture must be excluded. The management of chronic prostatitis is more difficult and requires bacteriological examination. Finally the patient’s androgen status must be verified, as androgen deficiency can promote infection. 相似文献

Chronic pelvic pain, in young men or elderly men, has always been a challenge to the medical profession, raising problems of assessment and management. Chronic pelvic pain has a high prevalence, which is underestimated as indicated by the following figures: 4% to 8% of patients consulting chronic pain centres, 15% of patients consulting a urologist for symptoms of chronic prostatitis with alteration of quality of life, 70,000 cases of chronic cystitis per year in the USA. The circumstances of onset are multiple: postoperative, after minor or major trauma or postinfectious, sometimes without any particular aetiology and often in a multifactorial context. The pathophysiology is therefore vague and poorly elucidated, as only about 5% of cases of chronic prostatitis have a bacterial cause. However, any form of stimulation activates pain pathways with neurogenic inflammation followed by central sensitization and modification of neuronal plasticity, and finally chronic refractory pain with organic dysfunction. This mechanism is currently proposed in numerous publications concerning postoperative chronic pelvic pain and refractory cystitis and chronic prostatitis. The pathophysiology of these types of pain is probably therefore neurogenic. In the absence of stimulation, a pudendal nerve tunnel syndrome can be suggested. The treatment of chronic pelvic pain in men can be considered in the following way: aetiological treatment whenever possible, neurogenic medical treatment (tricyclic antidepressants for continuous pain, anticonvulsants for intermittent pain, NMDA receptor antagonists in the case of failure), treatment of organic dysfunction, pudendal nerve analgesic block in the case of suspected tunnel syndrome and global treatment of patient with impaired quality of life. In conclusion, a better pathophysiological approach to these forms of chronic pelvic pain can improve these difficult patients. 相似文献

The clinical and laboratory signs, as well as the imaging and course of Paget's disease of bone, are now well known. This chronic and usually benign disease is characterized by excessive remodelling of bone tissue, associated with an increase, sometimes considerable, of osteoclast resorption and osteoblast formation activities. The bone scan is a fundamental examination to establish initial mapping of the localizations of the disease. This examination has a greater sensitivity than X-rays for the flat bones. Through three clinical cases, we present the bone scan aspect, the various localizations and the diagnosis difficulties of the disease, especially when a context of neoplasm is present. 相似文献

Pannexin1 (Panx1) is a plasma membrane channel permeable to relatively large molecules, such as ATP. In the central nervous system (CNS) Panx1 is found in neurons and glia and in the immune system in macrophages and T-cells. We tested the hypothesis that Panx1-mediated ATP release contributes to expression of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model for multiple sclerosis, using wild-type (WT) and Panx1 knockout (KO) mice. Panx1 KO mice displayed a delayed onset of clinical signs of EAE and decreased mortality compared to WT mice, but developed as severe symptoms as the surviving WT mice. Spinal cord inflammatory lesions were also reduced in Panx1 KO EAE mice during acute disease. Additionally, pharmacologic inhibition of Panx1 channels with mefloquine (MFQ) reduced severity of acute and chronic EAE when administered before or after onset of clinical signs. ATP release and YoPro uptake were significantly increased in WT mice with EAE as compared to WT non-EAE and reduced in tissues of EAE Panx1 KO mice. Interestingly, we found that the P2X7 receptor was upregulated in the chronic phase of EAE in both WT and Panx1 KO spinal cords. Such increase in receptor expression is likely to counterbalance the decrease in ATP release recorded from Panx1 KO mice and thus contribute to the development of EAE symptoms in these mice. The present study shows that a Panx1 dependent mechanism (ATP release and/or inflammasome activation) contributes to disease progression, and that inhibition of Panx1 using pharmacology or gene disruption delays and attenuates clinical signs of EAE. 相似文献

The Skeggs-Leonards artificial kidney and related methods were applied by the author in about thirty instances in patients with various kinds of renal disease. The treatment brought about clinical improvement of varying degree and appeared to be life-saving in four of five patients with acute renal failure. Treatment with the artificial kidney is indicated for patients with acute renal failure who develop clinical signs of uremia. The artificial kidney should be applied before the patient's condition has become irreversible. Removal of edema fluid is possible with modern artificial kidney equipment and appears to extend the therapeutic possibilities of the procedure. The artificial kidney may be of help in barbiturate and other intoxications. It affords temporary palliation in certain patients with chronic uremia; it may be used to overcome acute exacerbations of chronic renal disease; it may make it possible to operate on uremic patients who otherwise could not withstand operation. 相似文献

Type 2 diabetes and depressive disorder are 2 chronic diseases highly prevalent in developed countries and with a negative impact on quality of life and life expectancy. In recent years, both conditions have been shown to be strongly associated. Thus, diabetics have an increased risk of suffering depressive disorder, as well as impaired glucose homeostasis, if they experience depression. In diabetic patients, concurrent depression is associated to greater difficulties in disease management and metabolic control, increased risk of developing chronic complications, decreased quality of life, and higher healthcare expenses. As a result, the interest of diabetic scientific societies in this association has increased, and they recommend regular mood assessment in diabetic patients. However, the limited clinical experience available and the conflicting results reported to date make it difficult to draw conclusions. 相似文献

Quantitative studies on the role of Ureaplasma urealyticum in non-gonococcal urethritis and chronic prostatitis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Quantitative determinations of U. urealyticum and M. hominis have been performed in 164 men with non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU) and 597 patients with chronic prostatitis. Evidence is provided that U. urealyticum plays an etiologic role in 29.3 percent of patients with non-gonococcal urethritis. Mixed infections of C. trachomatis and U. urealyticum, in high numbers, do occur in 11 percent of NGU cases. A constellation suggesting ureaplasma-associated disease could be observed in 13.7 to 15.2 percent of 597 patients with chronic prostatitis. M. hominis does not appear to be a causative agent of NGU or chronic prostatitis. 相似文献

The origins of benign prostatic diseases, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS), are poorly understood. Patients suffering from benign prostatic symptoms report a substantially reduced quality of life, and the relationship between benign prostate conditions and prostate cancer is uncertain. Epidemiologic data for BPH and CP/CPPS are limited, however an apparent association between BPH symptoms and cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been consistently reported. The prostate synthesizes and stores large amounts of cholesterol and prostate tissues may be particularly sensitive to perturbations in cholesterol metabolism. Hypercholesterolemia, a major risk factor for CVD, is also a risk factor for BPH. Animal model and clinical trial findings suggest that agents that inhibit cholesterol absorption from the intestine, such as the class of compounds known as polyene macrolides, can reduce prostate gland size and improve lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Observational studies indicate that cholesterol-lowering drugs reduce the risk of aggressive prostate cancer, while prostate cancer cell growth and survival pathways depend in part on cholesterol-sensitive biochemical mechanisms. Here we review the evidence that cholesterol metabolism plays a role in the incidence of benign prostate disease and we highlight possible therapeutic approaches based on this concept. 相似文献

We assayed prostatic specific antigen (PSA) and prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) serum levels in 1305 subjects without malignant prostatic pathology by double antibody RIA I125 to evaluate their specificity. When we set a second upper normal limit of 10 ng/ml for PSA and 2.5 ng/ml for PAP there was a significant increase of specificity. There were 2 and 3.7% false positive results in non-prostatic benign pathologies, 1.8 and 7.9% in non-prostatic malignant, 3.5 and 4.7% in non-complicated benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) and 3.3% for both in chronic prostatitis. In patients with complicated BPH and acute prostatitis the results were 64.8 and 24% for PSA and 20 and 16% for PAP. In conclusion, PSA is more specific than PAP in patients without acute inflammatory pathology of the prostate; the high rate of false positive values in the latter excludes its usefulness in these patients as diagnostic tumoral markers. 相似文献

Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with clinical benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are a common occurrence in aging men, causing bother and interference with daily activities and affecting disease-specific quality of life. There is increasing evidence to suggest that, in many patients, the signs and symptoms of BPH are progressive. Progression can be measured as continued growth of the prostate gland; worsening of symptoms, bother, or quality of life; deterioration of urinary flow rate; episodes of acute urinary retention (AUR); and need for prostate-related surgery. Furthermore, it has become clear that the risk of disease progression increases with age as well as with increasing prostate volume and serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level. The 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor finasteride has been shown not only to improve symptoms, bother, and quality of life but also to prevent progression to AUR and surgery, with a relative risk reduction of over 50%. As the risk for such progression is higher in patients with larger glands or higher serum PSA values at baseline, it is in those patients that finasteride induces an even greater risk reduction, making it a cost-effective treatment choice for patients with LUTS associated with prostatic enlargement. 相似文献
