Transurethral plasmakinetic resection of prostate (TUPKP) is one of the foremost surgical procedures for the treatment of BPH. It has become well established in clinical practice with good efficacy and safety. In 2018, we issued the guideline “2018 Standard Edition”. However much new direct evidence has now emerged and this may change some of previous recommendations. The time is ripe to develop new evidence-based guidelines, so we formed a working group of clinical experts and methodologists. The steering group members posed 31 questions relevant to the management of TUPKP for BPH covering the following areas: questions relevant to the perioperative period (preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative) of TUPKP in the treatment of BPH, postoperative complications and the level of surgeons’ surgical skill. We searched the literature for direct evidence on the management of TUPKP for BPH, and assessed its certainty generated recommendations using the grade criteria by the European Association of Urology. Recommendations were either strong or weak, or in the form of an ungraded consensus-based statement. Finally, we issued 36 statements. Among them, 23 carried strong recommendations, and 13 carried weak recommendations for the stated procedure. They covered questions relevant to the aforementioned three areas. The preoperative period for TUPKP in the treatment of BPH included indications and contraindications for TUPKP, precautions for preoperative preparation in patients with renal impairment and urinary tract infection due to urinary retention, and preoperative prophylactic use of antibiotics. Questions relevant to the intraoperative period incorporated surgical operation techniques and prevention and management of bladder explosion. The application to different populations incorporating the efficacy and safety of TUPKP in the treatment of normal volume (< 80 ml) and large-volume (≥ 80 ml) BPH compared with transurethral urethral resection prostate, transurethral plasmakinetic enucleation of prostate and open prostatectomy;the efficacy and safety of TUPKP in high-risk populations and among people taking anticoagulant (antithrombotic) drugs. Questions relevant to the postoperative period incorporated the time and speed of flushing, the time indwelling catheters are needed, principles of postoperative therapeutic use of antibiotics, follow-up time and follow-up content. Questions related to complications incorporated types of complications and their incidence, postoperative leukocyturia, the treatment measures for the perforation and extravasation of the capsule, transurethral resection syndrome, postoperative bleeding, urinary catheter blockage, bladder spasm, overactive bladder, urinary incontinence, urethral stricture, rectal injury during surgery, postoperative erectile dysfunction and retrograde ejaculation. Final questions were related to surgeons’ skills when performing TUPKP for the treatment of BPH. We hope these recommendations can help support healthcare workers caring for patients having TUPKP for the treatment of BPH.展开更多

Hence, this study aimed to investigate the regulation of BPH on gut microbiota composition and metabonomics.Methods: We analyzed gut samples from rats with BPH and healthy control rats, the gut microbiota composition and metabonomics were detected by 16S rDNA sequencing and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry(LC–MS/MS).Results: High-throughput sequencing results showed that gut microbiota beta-diversity increased(P<0.01) in the BPH group vs. control group. Muribaculaceae(P<0.01), Turicibacteraceae(P<0.05), Turicibacter(P<0.01) and Coprococcus(P<0.01) were significantly decreased in the BPH group, whereas that of Mollicutes(P<0.05) and Prevotella(P<0.05)were significantly increased compared with the control group. Despite profound interindividual variability, the levels of several predominant genera were different. In addition, there were no statistically significant differences in several bacteria. BPH group vs. control group: Firmicutes(52.30% vs. 57.29%, P>0.05), Bacteroidetes(46.54% vs. 41.64%,P>0.05), Clostridia(50.89% vs. 54.66%, P>0.05), Ruminococcaceae(25.67% vs. 20.56%, P>0.05). LC–MS/MS of intestinal contents revealed that differential metabolites were mainly involved in cellular processes, environmental information processing, metabolism and organismal systems. The most important pathways were global and overview maps, lipid metabolism, amino acid metabolism, digestive system and endocrine system. Through enrichment analysis, we found that the differential metabolites were significantly enriched in metabolic pathways, steroid hormone biosynthesis,ovarian steroidogenesis, biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids and bile secretion. Pearson correlation analysis(R=0.94) showed that there was a strong correlation between Prevotellaceae, Corynebacteriaceae, Turicibacteraceae,Bifidobacteriaceae and differential metabolites.Conclusions: Our findings suggested an association between the gut microbiota and BPH, but the causal relationship between the two groups is unclear. Thus, further studies are warranted to elucidate the potential mechanisms and causal relationships between BPH and gut microbiota.展开更多

文摘Background:Both periodontal disease and benign prostatic hyperplasia are age-related diseases that affect millions of people worldwide.Hence,this study aimed to investigate the association between periodontal disease and the risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia.Methods:A total of 4930 participants were selected from an available health examination that was carried out in 2017,only males were considered for further analysis.All eligible males were divided into benign prostatic hyperplasia and normal groups,the benign prostatic hyperplasia group was then divided into prostate volume≤60 g and>60 g subgroups;all their periodontal status was extracted and then into normal(CPI score of 0),periodontal disease(CPI score between 1 and 4),and periodontitis(CPI score between 3 and 4)groups.The correlation between periodontal disease and benign prostatic hyperplasia was investigated using logistic regression analyses and greedy matching case-control analysis.Subgroup analysis based on prostate volume was also performed.All analyses were conducted with SAS 9.4 software.Results:A total of 2171 males were selected for this analysis.The presence of periodontal disease significantly increased the risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia by 1.68 times(OR=1.68,95%CI:1.26–2.24),and individuals with periodontitis showed a higher risk(OR=4.18,95%CI:2.75–6.35).In addition,among matched cases and controls,this association remained robust(periodontal disease:OR=1.85,95%CI:1.30–2.64;periodontitis:OR=4.83,95%CI:2.57–9.07).Subgroup analysis revealed that periodontal disease significantly increased benign prostate hyperplasia risk as well(for prostate volume≤60 g:OR=1.64,95%CI:1.22–2.20;for volume>60 g:OR=2.17,95%CI:1.04–4.53),and there was a higher risk in the group with a prostate volume greater than 60 g.Conclusions:Periodontal disease is significantly and positively associated with an increased risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia.Further validation studies should be performed to explore the relationship between periodontal treatment and benign prostate hyperplasia.
