Journal ArticleDOI

The standardisation of terminology of lower urinary tract function: report from the Standardisation Sub-committee of the International Continence Society.

TL;DR: The standardisation of terminology of lower urinary tract function: Report from the standardistation sub-committee of the International Continence Society.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochemical Outcome after radical prostatectomy, external beam Radiation Therapy, or interstitial Radiation therapy for clinically localized prostate cancer

TL;DR: Low-risk patients had estimates of 5-year PSA outcome after treatment with RP, RT, or implant with or without neoadjuvant androgen deprivation that were not statistically different, whereas intermediate- and high- risk patients treated with RP or RT did better then those treated by implant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence and burden of overactive bladder in the United States

TL;DR: The NOBLE studies do not support the commonly held notion that women are considerably more likely than men to have urgency-related bladder control problems, and overactive bladder, with and without urge incontinence, has a clinically significant impact on quality-of-life, quality- of-sleep, and mental health, in both men and women.
Journal ArticleDOI

The standardisation of terminology of lower urinary tract function: report from the Standardisation Sub-committee of the International Continence Society.

TL;DR: This report restates the ICS principle that symptoms, signs and conditions are separate categories and adds a category of urodynamic observations and conditions associated with lower urinary tract dysfunction and UDS, for use in all patient groups from children to the elderly.
Journal ArticleDOI

How widespread are the symptoms of an overactive bladder and how are they managed? A population-based prevalence study.

TL;DR: The prevalence of chronic and debilitating symptoms of the overactive bladder are determined as the presence of chronic frequency, urgency and urge incontinence (either alone or in any combination), and presumed to be caused by involuntary detrusor contractions.
