Objective: To evaluate the correlation of International Prostatic Symptom Score with Prostate Volume Benign Hyperplasia patients. Study Design: A Cross- out sectional study was done. Qualitative variables measured by Chi square test and quantitative ANOVA. Pearson & multinominal regression were applied. P value considered significant at <0.05. It conducted in a tertiary care hospital, Zi...

PURPOSE The incidence of benign prostatic hyperplasia increases among obese individuals, but few studies have fully explained the underlying mechanisms. Adiponectin has drawn much attention in recent years due to its protective role in obesity-related diseases. Here we aimed to investigate the possible molecular mechanisms and clinical significance of adiponectin in relation to benign prostatic...

This work investigated the spectrum-effect relationships between high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fingerprints and the anti-benign prostatic hyperplasia activities of aqueous extracts from Saxifraga stolonifera. The fingerprints of S. stolonifera from various sources were established by HPLC and evaluated by similarity analysis (SA), hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) and princ...

The prostate is a complex organ composed of epithelial cells and fibromuscular stroma. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a true hyperplastic process, with an increase in the number of cells arising initially in the transition zone of the gland. Complex stromal– epithelial interactions lead to benign prostatic hyperplasia in 50 percent of men by the age of 50 years. This process requires testicula...

Magnetic resonance imaging was utilized in 18 patients with prostatic cancer and compared with the findings in normal volunteers (Pontes et al., 1985), benign prostatic hyperplasia (Hricak et al., 1983), acute prostatitis (Walsh and Jewett, 1980) and chronic prostatitis (ACS, 1986). Sixteen of the 18 patients with carcinoma demonstrated inhomogeneous signal intensity, however, a similar appeara...

Background: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia is a common condition in the elderly population. It affects physical health status persons over 65 years and interferes with their daily activities. Study Aim: to assess knowledge care seeking behaviors among old age patients hyperplasia Sample: aged 60 above diagnosed benign prostatic hyperplasia. The total sample size was 218 elderly. Cross-sectional r...

Differences in stromal and epithelial cell staining for androgen and glucocorticoid receptors (ARs and GRs) were investigated in 20 patients with clinically localized prostatic carcinoma treated by radical prostatectomy. Sections of benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic carcinoma from each patient were stained with antibodies to AR and GR using an avidin-biotin peroxidase technique. The sp...
