Abstract
Background Recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs) are common after renal transplantation (RTx), and the impact on graft and patient survival remains controversial. Objective In this study, we investigate the incidence and risk factors for rUTIs in a cohort of RTx recipients and evaluate the effect on graft and patient survival. Design setting and participants A retrospective cohort of adult patients who underwent RTx at Rigshospitalet, Denmark, between 2014 and 2021 was evaluated in this study. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis Risk factors for rUTIs were explored with a multivariable cause-specific Cox proportional hazard analysis. The Kaplan-Meier estimate was used to assess overall survival. Results and limitations A total of 571 RTx recipients were included. The median age was 52 yr (interquartile range: 42-62 yr). Of the cases, 62% were deceased donor RTx. A total of 103 recipients experienced rUTIs. We found increasing age (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.02 per year increase, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.00-1.04, p = 0.02), female gender (HR: 2.1, 95% CI: 1.4-3.3, p < 0.001), history of lower urinary tract symptoms (HR: 2.3, 95% CI: 1.4-3.5, p = 0.001), and a UTI within 30 d of surgery (HR: 3.5, 95% CI: 2.1-5.9, p < 0.001) were associated with rUTIs. No influence of rUTIs on overall or graft survival was observed. Conclusions One in six patients experience rUTIs after RTx. Pre- and postoperative variables affect the risk of rUTIs, but none are easily modifiable. In this cohort, rUTIs did not affect the graft function or survival. The etiology of rUTIs remains poorly understood, and there is a continuous need to study how rUTIs can be reduced and treated optimally. Patient summary In this study, we looked at the risk factors for recurrent urinary tract infections in patients after kidney transplantation. We conclude that 21.5% of patients experience recurrent urinary tract infections 5 years after kidney transplantation. Multiple risk factors were found and should be taken into consideration by clinicians.

Impact of Nocturnal Polyuria and Sleep Quality in Kidney Transplant Recipients With Nocturia. Transplant Proc 2023:S0041-1345(23)00100-8. [PMID: 36934056 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2023.02.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the quality of life (QOL) of patients with nocturia after kidney transplantation (KT) and the association between nocturnal polyuria and sleep quality. METHODS In a cross-sectional study, a patient who consented was evaluated using the following items: international prostate symptom QOL score, nocturia-quality of life score, overactive bladder symptom score, Pittsburgh sleep quality index, bladder diary, uroflowmetry, and bioimpedance analysis. Clinical and laboratory data were obtained from medical charts. RESULTS Forty-three patients were included in the analysis. Approximately 25% of patients urinated once at night, and 58.1% had nocturia twice. Nocturnal polyuria was observed in 86.0% of patients, and overactive bladder was observed in 23.3% of patients. According to the Pittsburgh sleep quality Index, 34.9% of patients had poor sleep quality. Multivariate analysis revealed that patients with nocturnal polyuria tended to have a high estimated glomerular filtration rate (P = .058). On the other hand, multivariate analysis for poor sleep quality revealed that high body fat percentage and low nocturia-quality of life total score were independently correlated factors (P = .008 and P = .012, respectively). Furthermore, the patients with nocturia ≥3/night were significantly older than those with nocturia ≤2/night (P = .022). CONCLUSION Nocturnal polyuria, poor sleep quality, and aging may decrease the QOL of patients with nocturia after KT. Further investigations, including optimal water intake and interventions, can lead to better management after KT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) and laser prostate surgery are common surgeries for benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). We conducted an investigation using hospital database to evaluate the clinical factors associated with post-operative usage of alpha-blockers and antispasmodics. METHODS This study was conducted using retrospective clinical data from the hospital database, which contained newly diagnosed BPH patients between January 2007 and December 2012 who subsequently received prostate surgery. The study end-point was the use of alpha-blockers or antispasmodics for at least 3 months duration after 1 month of surgery. The exclusion criteria was prostate cancer diagnosed before or after the surgery, recent transurethral surgeries, history of open prostatectomy, and history of spinal cord injury. Clinical parameters, including age, body mass index, preoperative prostate specific antigen value, comorbidities, preoperative usage of alpha-blockers, anstispasmodics and 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, surgical methods, resected prostate volume ratios, and preoperative urine flow test results, were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 250 patients receiving prostate surgery in the database and confirmed pathologically benign were included. There was significant association between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the usage of alpha-blockers after prostate surgery (OR = 1.93, 95% CI 1.04-3.56, p = 0.036). Postoperative antispasmodics usage was significantly associated with preoperative usage of antispasmodics (OR = 2.33, 95% CI 1.02-5.36, p = 0.046) and resected prostate volume ratio (OR = 0.12, 95% CI 0.02-0.63, p = 0.013). CONCLUSIONS BPH patients with underlying CKD were more likely to require alpha-blockers after surgery. In the meantime, BPH patients who required antispasmodics before surgery and who received lower prostate volume resection ratio were more liable to antispasmodics after prostate surgery.

Factors associated with low-compliance bladder in end-stage renal disease patients and development of a clinical prediction model for urodynamic evaluation: the DUDi score. Int Urol Nephrol 2023; 55:75-84. [PMID: 36307573 PMCID: PMC9616423 DOI: 10.1007/s11255-022-03399-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate factors associated with low-compliance bladders (LCB) in pretransplant patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and develop a clinical prediction model for urodynamic studies. METHODS This study was a prospective cohort study. Patients with ESRD on the renal transplantation waiting list were recruited and underwent the urodynamic study. Demographics data, predictor factors related to the bladder compliance such as underlying disease of the lower urinary tract disease (LUTD), duration of urine < 250 mL/day, type and duration of renal replacement therapy (RRT), urine volume per day and urodynamic study information were collected. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess the independence of explanatory factors, then we developed the clinical prediction model. RESULTS One hundred fifty-two patients participated in the study: 94 patients in the normal bladder group and 58 patients in LCB group. Demographic data were not significantly different between the two groups, except diabetes. Cystometric capacity, detrusor pressure, compliance were significantly different. From the univariate analysis, DM status, duration of RRT, and passing < 100 mL of urine per day were related to LCB. We named the prediction model, the DUDi score based on the predictors (Duration of RRT, Urine volume/day, Diabetes). Higher scores predicted a higher risk of low-compliance bladder [P value = 0.464 according to the Hosmer-Lemeshow test, and the AUC was 0.87 (95% CI 0.81-0.92)]. CONCLUSIONS Our clinical prediction model is easy to use and provides a high predictive value that is appropriate for patients who have no known LUTD to identify low-compliance bladder. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER AND DATE OF REGISTRATION FOR PROSPECTIVELY REGISTERED TRIALS: This study was approved by the Thai Clinical Trials Registry Committee on 09 February 2021. The TCTR identification number is TCTR20210209006.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To propose surgical recommendations for the management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and urinary incontinence in kidney transplant recipients and candidates. METHOD Following a systematic approach, a review of the literature (Medline) was conducted by the CTAFU focusing on medical and surgical treatment of LUTS and urinary incontinence in kidney transplant recipients and candidates. References were assessed according to a predefined process to propose recommendations with levels of evidence. RESULTS Functional bladder capacity and bladder compliance are impaired during dialysis. LUTS, related to pre-kidney transplantion alterations, frequently improve spontaneously after kidney transplantation. LUTS secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) may be underestimated before kidney transplantation due to oliguria, low bladder compliance and low bladder capacity. In LUTS associated with BPH, anticholinergics require dosage adjustment with creatinine clearance. If surgery is indicated after kidney transplantation, procedure can be safely performed in the early post-transplant course after removal of ureteral stent. Surgical management of urinary incontinence does not seem to be associated with an icreased risk for infectious complications in kidney transplant recipients. Particular attention should be paid to the management of postvoid residual and bladder pressures in case of neurological bladder disease. Optimal care of neurological bladder should be provided prior to transplantation: with a cautious management, and despite an increased occurrence of febrile urinary tract infections, transplant survival is not compromised. CONCLUSION These recommendations must contribute to improve the management of lower urinary tract symptoms and urinary incontinence in kidney transplant patients and kidney transplant candidates.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) frequently have lower urinary tract symptoms, such as frequency, urgency, or bladder pain. This study evaluated sensory protein expression in the bladder urothelium of patients with CKD or ESRD. METHODS Twenty-seven patients with ESRD or CKD and urodynamically proven detrusor underactivity (DU; n = 8) or bladder oversensitivity (n = 19) were enrolled in the study. These patients, and 10 controls, underwent cystoscopic biopsies of the urothelium. Western blotting analysis was used to examine the expression of sensory proteins, namely purinergic P2X3 , muscarinic M2 and M3 , and β3 -adrenergic (AR) receptors, as well as inducible (i) and epithelial (e) nitric oxide synthase (NOS), in tissue samples. Expression was compared between CKD or ESRD patients and controls. RESULTS P2X3 receptor expression was lower, whereas β3 -AR was expression higher in the bladder urothelium of the patient group (ESRD and CKD combined) compared with controls. In addition, compared with controls, CKD patients had significantly lower P2X3 receptor expression, whereas ESRD patients had significantly higher M3 receptor expression. There were no significant differences in M2 receptor, eNOS, and iNOS expression between ESRD or CKD patients and controls. Patients with DU had significantly higher M2 and M3 receptor expression. There were no significant differences in the expression of any protein between ESRD and CKD patients, regardless of the presence of bladder pain or anuria. CONCLUSION Significantly decreased P2X3 receptor and increased β3 -AR expression are seen in the bladder urothelium of patients with ESRD or CKD. The expression of these sensory proteins is not associated with decreased bladder capacity or anuria status in patients with ESRD or CKD.

Abstract
Purpose Chronic kidney disease (CKD) or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients usually have lower urinary tract symptoms, such as frequency and urgency. Additionally, they frequently suffer from urinary tract infections. This study investigated dysfunction and chronic inflammation of the bladder urothelium in ESRD/CKD patients. Methods This study enrolled 27 patients with CKD (n=13) or ESRD (n=14) for urodynamic studies and bladder biopsies. Patients presented with detrusor underactivity (DU; n=8) or bladder oversensitivity (BO; n=19). Bladder biopsies were performed in these patients and in 20 controls. The bladder mucosa was examined for E-cadherin and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) expression, activated mast cell count (through tryptase staining), and urothelial apoptosis (through terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick-end labeling [TUNEL]). The urodynamic parameters were also compared with variables regarding urothelial dysfunction. Results The bladder mucosa samples of ESRD and CKD patients revealed significantly higher mast cell counts, more urothelial apoptosis, and lower levels of ZO-1 expression than the control samples. E-cadherin expression was significantly reduced in ESRD/CKD patients with DU, but not in ESRD/CKD patients with BO. Increased mast cell and apoptotic cell counts were also associated with ESRD/CKD with BO. Less expression of ZO-1 and E-cadherin was significantly associated with increased bladder sensation and a small bladder capacity. Conclusions Bladder urothelial dysfunction and chronic inflammation were present to a noteworthy extent in patients with ESRD or CKD. Increased inflammation and defective barrier function were more notable in ESRD/CKD bladders with BO than in those with DU. The clinical characteristics of these patients may involve urothelial pathophysiology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and function in patients who had undergone renal transplantation (RTx). METHODS Fifty patients (34 males and 16 females; age 16-68 years) undergoing RTx at our hospital were included in this study. Average follow-up after RTx was 6.1 years (range 0.5-28). The pre-transplant dialysis period averaged 2.5 years (range preemptive-18.6 years). We conducted the evaluation of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and function using uroflowmetry (UFM) , residual urine measurement, 24h bladder diary, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), QOL score, Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS) and Core Lower Urinary Tract Symptom Score (CLSS). RESULTS Average first desire to void and maximum desire to void were 89.9 mL and 185 mL respectively in cystometry before RTx. Atrophy of the bladder before RTx showed a correlation with the dialysis period. UFM of post-RTx was maximum urinary flow rate of 21.8 mL/s and a voided volume of 287.6 mL. Severe cases of IPSS, QOL, OABSS and CLSS were not observed. Average 24h voided volume, urination times and nocturia were 2,329 mL, 8.2 times and 0.9 times respectively. Polyuria after RTx was observed in 21 patients (42%). Aging and vascular lesions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease were the most important factor of LUTS. CONCLUSIONS After RTx, LUTS were present in a number of cases after RTx. Patients undergoing RTx has been aging, it is considered necessary to perform the evaluation of LUTS before RTx.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease is a public health problem with increasing prevalence caused by diabetes, hypertension and glomerulonephritis. Number of publications investigate the lower urinary tract dysfunction due to CKD is limited. There is a high incidence of bladder dysfunction of different degrees in patients with renal failure. Mechanism of the lower urinary tract dysfunction in these patients is not well known. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of CKD on detrusor function in a rat model of CKD. In our study, 20 Wistar Albino rats have been divided into two groups as CKD and control groups. To the experiment group, left partial nephrectomy and right nephrectomy have been applied. CKD confirmation has done with the BUN and creatinin values from the blood of the rats. The bladder strips were prepared from the CKD and control groups and its contractile responses were evaluated in-vitro. There wasn't a considerable difference with the contractile responses caused by carbachol, KCL. There was a considerable increase in the contractile responses caused by ATP, ADP and electrical field stimulation on the behalf of the CKD group. The present study demonstrated that isolated DSM of CKD group showed significantly increased contraction responses to purinergic agonists ADP, ATP and atropine resistant component in electrical field stimulation-induced contractions as compared to those of the control group. Bladder overactivity and reduced bladder volume in CKD patients might be due to the change in purinergic system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bladder dysfunction after kidney transplantation (KTx) impairs the patients' quality of life. We examined the bladder function status perioperatively in patients undergoing KTx and performed a randomized prospective study to determine the efficacy of an antimuscarinic agent, solifenacin, in ameliorating the bladder dysfunction after KTx. METHODS The subjects in this study were 33 patients who underwent KTx at our institution. The patients were divided into two groups: group 1 (n=18), composed of patients who were not treated with any antimuscarinic agent, and group 2 (n=15), composed of patients treated with an antimuscarinic agent. We investigated the actual bladder function status of these patients before and after KTx by the following two methods: (1) video water cystometry and (2) questionnaire study using the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score and King's Health Questionnaire. RESULTS The cystometry study revealed a significantly greater increase of the maximum cystometric capacity in group 2 than in group 1 (173.0±60.7 mL in group 1 and 260.1±51.0 mL in group 2 [P=0.005]) after KTx. In the questionnaire surveys, the decreases in the scores for all domains were observed 6 weeks after KTx. The scores in group 2 tended to be lower than those in group 1. CONCLUSION In all of our patients, the bladder dysfunction status improved dramatically after KTx. In addition, our results suggest that administration of the antimuscarinic agent, solifenacin, may contribute to improvement of the quality of life of patients undergoing KTx.
