Abstract
BACKGROUND Identifying comorbidities is a critical first step to building clinical phenotypes to improve assessment, management, and outcomes. OBJECTIVES 1) Identify relevant comorbidities of community-dwelling older adults with urinary incontinence, 2) provide insights about relationships between conditions. METHODS PubMed, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Embase were searched. Eligible studies had quantitative designs that analyzed urinary incontinence as the exposure or outcome variable. Critical appraisal was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklists. RESULTS Ten studies were included. Most studies had methodological weaknesses in the measurement of conditions. Comorbidities affecting the neurologic, cardiovascular, psychologic, respiratory, endocrine, genitourinary, and musculoskeletal systems were found to be associated with urinary incontinence. CONCLUSION Existing literature suggests that comorbidities and urinary incontinence are interrelated. Further research is needed to examine symptoms, shared mechanisms, and directionality of relationships to generate clinical phenotypes, evidence-based holistic care guidelines, and improve outcomes.

Abstract
We herein report a 73-year-old Japanese woman with possible multiple system atrophy-cerebellar form (MSA-C) who suffered from urinary retention (sacral autonomic disorder) for 12 years before exhibiting cerebellar ataxia. A peculiar combination of findings on urodynamics and sphincter electromyography (EMG), e.g. detrusor hyperactivity with impaired contraction (DHIC), detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia (DSD) and neurogenic sphincter EMG (upper and lower neuron-type autonomic dysfunction), seems to have been predictive of future development of MSA.

Noncancerous Genitourinary Conditions as a Public Health Priority: Conceptualizing the Hidden Burden. Urology 2022; 166:39-49. [PMID: 34536410 PMCID: PMC8924010 DOI: 10.1016/j.urology.2021.08.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2021] [Revised: 08/07/2021] [Accepted: 08/30/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide a conceptual framework to guide investigations into burdens of noncancerous genitourinary conditions (NCGUCs), which are extensive and poorly understood. METHODS The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases convened a workshop of diverse, interdisciplinary researchers and health professionals to identify known and hidden burdens of NCGUCs that must be measured to estimate the comprehensive burden. Following the meeting, a subgroup of attendees (authors of this article) continued to meet to conceptualize burden. RESULTS The Hidden Burden of Noncancerous Genitourinary Conditions Framework includes impacts across multiple levels of well-being and social ecology, including individual (ie, biologic factors, lived experience, behaviors), interpersonal (eg, romantic partners, family members), organizational/institutional (eg, schools, workplaces), community (eg, public restroom infrastructure), societal (eg, health care and insurance systems, national workforce/economic output), and ecosystem (eg, landfill waste) effects. The framework acknowledges that NCGUCs can be a manifestation of underlying biological dysfunction, while also leading to biological impacts (generation and exacerbation of health conditions, treatment side effects). CONCLUSION NCGUCs confer a large, poorly understood burden to individuals and society. An evidence-base to describe the comprehensive burden is needed. Measurement of NCGUC burdens should incorporate multiple levels of well-being and social ecology, a life course perspective, and potential interactions between NCGUCs and genetics, sex, race, and gender. This approach would elucidate accumulated impacts and potential health inequities in experienced burdens. Uncovering the hidden burden of NCGUCs may draw attention and resources (eg, new research and improved treatments) to this important domain of health.

Evaluation and Treatment in Urology for Nocturia Caused by Nonurological Mechanisms: Guidance from the PLANET Study. Eur Urol Focus 2022; 8:89-97. [PMID: 35101453 DOI: 10.1016/j.euf.2022.01.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2021] [Accepted: 01/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Patients with nocturia are commonly referred to urology clinics, including many for whom a nonurological medical condition is responsible for their symptoms. The PLanning Appropriate Nocturia Evaluation and Treatment (PLANET) study was established to develop practical approaches to equip healthcare practitioners to deal with the diverse causes of nocturia, based on systematic reviews and expert consensus. Initial assessment and therapy need to consider the possibility of one or more medical conditions falling into the "SCREeN" areas of Sleep medicine (insomnia, periodic limb movements of sleep, parasomnias, and obstructive sleep apnoea), Cardiovascular (hypertension and congestive heart failure), Renal (chronic kidney disease), Endocrine (diabetes mellitus, thyroid disease, pregnancy/menopause, and diabetes insipidus), and Neurology. Medical and medication causes of xerostomia should also be considered. Some key indicators for these conditions can be identified in urology clinics, working in partnership with the primary care provider. Therapy of the medical condition in some circumstances lessens the severity of nocturia. However, in many cases there is a conflict between the two, in which case the medical condition generally takes priority on safety grounds. It is important to provide patients with a realistic expectation of therapy and awareness of limitations of current therapeutic options for nocturia. PATIENT SUMMARY: Nocturia is the symptom of waking at night to pass urine. Commonly, this problem is referred to urology clinics. However, in some cases, the patient does not have a urological condition but actually a condition from a different speciality of medicine. This article describes how best the urologist and the primary care doctor can work together to assess the situation and make sensible and safe treatment suggestions. Unfortunately, there is sometimes no safe or effective treatment choice for nocturia, and treatment needs to focus instead on supportive management of symptoms.

Assessment and Treatment of Nocturia in Neurological Disease in a Primary Care Setting: Systematic Review and Nominal Group Technique Consensus. Eur Urol Focus 2022; 8:33-41. [PMID: 35031351 DOI: 10.1016/j.euf.2021.12.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2021] [Accepted: 12/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
CONTEXT Neurological disease can affect the rate of urine production and bladder storage function, increasing nocturia severity, with additional risks if mobility or cognition is impaired. OBJECTIVE To conduct a systematic review (SR) of nocturia in neurological diseases and achieve expert consensus for management in clinics without neurologist input. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Four databases were searched from January 2000 to April 2020. A total of 6262 titles and abstracts were screened and 43 studies were included for full-text screening. Eleven of these met the inclusion criteria and two studies were identified through other sources. The nominal group technique (NGT) was used to develop consensus in panel comprising experts and public representation. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Thirteen studies (seven in Parkinson's disease, five in multiple sclerosis) were included, all undertaken in secondary care. Neurological disease severity was incompletely described, and nocturia severity was generally measured subjectively. NGT consensus supported basic neurological assessment, and the use of bladder diaries where neurological impairment permits. Treatments include pelvic-floor muscle training, review of medications, risk mitigation, improving bowel function, therapy for overactive bladder syndrome (if urgency is reported in association with nocturia episodes), treatment of postvoid residual and desmopressin according to licence. Measures to improve mobility and mitigate risk when using the toilet overnight should be considered. Multifactorial issues such as obstructive sleep apnoea and hypoventilation must be considered. CONCLUSIONS Nocturia in neurological disease is complex and lacks a robust evidence base, with very little research done in the primary care context. Guidance should be pragmatic, with reduction of risk a key requirement, until a multidisciplinary evidence base can be developed. PATIENT SUMMARY People with a neurological disease can suffer severe sleep disturbance because of the need to pass urine several times overnight (called nocturia). We looked at published research and found very little information to help general practitioners in managing this condition. We assembled a group of experts to develop practical approaches for assessing and treating nocturia in neurological disease.

Abstract
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common debilitating condition characterized by urgency symptoms with detrimental effects on the quality of life and survival. The exact etiology of OAB is still enigmatic, and none of therapeutic approaches seems curative. OAB is generally regarded as a separate syndrome, whereas in clinic, OAB symptoms could be found in numerous diseases of other non-urogenital systems, particularly nervous system. The OAB symptoms in neurological diseases are often poorly recognized and inadequately treated. This review provided a comprehensive overview of recent findings related to the neurogenic OAB symptoms. Relevant neurological diseases could be mainly divided into seven kinds as follows: multiple sclerosis and related neuroinflammatory disorders, Parkinson’s diseases, multiple system atrophy, spinal cord injury, dementia, peripheral neuropathy, and others. Concurrently, we also summarized the hypothetical reasonings and available animal models to elucidate the underlying mechanism of neurogenic OAB symptoms. This review highlighted the close association between OAB symptoms and neurological diseases and expanded the current knowledge of pathophysiological basis of OAB. This may increase the awareness of urological complaints in neurological disorders and inspire robust therapies with better outcomes.

Abstract
The pseudophosphatases, atypical members of the protein tyrosine phosphatase family, have emerged as bona fide signaling regulators within the past two decades. Their roles as regulators have led to a renaissance of the pseudophosphatase and pseudoenyme fields, catapulting interest from a mere curiosity to intriguing and relevant proteins to investigate. Pseudophosphatases make up approximately fourteen percent of the phosphatase family, and are conserved throughout evolution. Pseudophosphatases, along with pseudokinases, are important players in physiology and pathophysiology. These atypical members of the protein tyrosine phosphatase and protein tyrosine kinase superfamily, respectively, are rendered catalytically inactive through mutations within their catalytic active signature motif and/or other important domains required for catalysis. This new interest in the pursuit of the relevant functions of these proteins has resulted in an elucidation of their roles in signaling cascades and diseases. There is a rapid accumulation of knowledge of diseases linked to their dysregulation, such as neuropathies and various cancers. This review analyzes the involvement of pseudophosphatases in diseases, highlighting the function of various role(s) of pseudophosphatases involvement in pathologies, and thus providing a platform to strongly consider them as key therapeutic drug targets.

Triple-disease etiology is common for LUTS in octogenarians: a neuro-urological approach. Int Urol Nephrol 2021; 53:1507-1513.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Older individuals often have multiple etiologies for their lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS); i.e., both urologic (U) and neurologic (N) etiologies. Few studies have investigated 'triple disease' (typically one U and two N components) in the LUTS of older adults. Herein, we had specialists from both urology and neurology address triple- and quadruple-etiology disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study with a 12-month recruiting period. We ascertained LUTS by standard questionnaires and bladder diaries. Urodynamics, sphincter EMG, prostate echography, and a neurologic examination were conducted for each patient as well as neuroimaging and neurophysiology examinations when appropriate. The diagnoses of the etiologies were based on published criteria. RESULTS We analyzed the cases of 141 older (age > 65 years) adults with LUTS referred from both urology (27%) and neurology departments (73%). The final etiologies were U (n = 69, 49%), N (n = 136, 96%), and a combination (U and N) (n = 77, 55%, overlap counted). The majority of U diagnoses were benign prostatic hyperplasia. The majority of N diagnoses were dementia with Lewy bodies, white matter disease (brain); lumbar spondylosis, and diabetes (peripheral disease). We noted triple-disease etiology in 25% (n = 35), increasing with each decade of age (18.2% of sexagenarians, 23.5% of septuagenarians, 39.1% of octogenarians). However, the differences were not significant. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that triple disease for LUTS is the most common in octogenarians, and clinicians thus need to untangle LUTS etiologies to provide appropriate care and management of older adults.
