Roles of the current practice of routine simultaneous urinalysis and urine culture in these cases were also evaluated. Materials and Methods: Medical records of pregnant women admitted with premature uterine contractions at Siriraj Hospital between January 2013 and December 2017 were reviewed. Prevalence of UTI in these women was determined. Women were divided into 2 groups based on diagnosis at admission; group 1 included preterm labor/preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PTL/PPROM), and group 2 was threatened preterm labor (TPL). Evaluations of urinalysis and/or urine culture were performed in these two groups to establish a strategy to reduce unnecessary urine culture. Results: The prevalence of UTI among 2,286 women with premature uterine contractions was 4.9%. Prevalence of UTI were not different between the two groups of women. A positive urine culture was found in 2.4%. The most common organism identified in both groups of women was Escherichia coli. Urinalysis with abnormal cell counts and/or significant presence of bacteria could be used to screen for women in TPL group who should have urine culture with a positive screening rate of 6.5% and 90.9% sensitivity. With this strategy, unnecessary urine culture could be reduced. Conclusion: The prevalence of UTI among pregnant women admitted with premature uterine contractions was 4.9% and was not different between PTL/PPROM group and TPL group. Urinalysis with abnormal cell counts or significant bacteriuria could be a screening tool to reduce number of urine culture in women with TPL.","PeriodicalId":37270,"journal":{"name":"Siriraj Medical Journal","volume":"122 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135459474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the methods for treating urolithiasis is ureteroscopy (URS). The small anatomy in pediatrics often makes the initial URS unsuccessful. Alpha blockers, a drug that can relax the ureteral muscles, is a therapy that can be considered before URS is carried out. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative  tamsulosin  for URS access in pediatrics. Materials and Methods: We conducted a search using four databases, including PubMed, EBSCO, Cochrane Library, and ProQuest. This study includes randomized controlled trials (RCTs), retrospective and prospective studies, which compared the efficacy of preoperative alpha blockers and placebo or non-placebo controls in pediatrics undergoing ureteroscopy. The outcome of interest was the success rate of URS access and the duration of surgery. Results: A total of 120 studies were identified from a database search. There were 3 studies included in this review involving 235 patients. The meta-analysis was conducted using a random-effects model. The results of the meta-analysis showed that alpha blockers provided a successful rate of ureteroscopy access in pediatric patients (Odds ratio (OR) 2.73; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.52 up to 4.91; p=0.0008).

Mobile dating applications (apps)/websites facilitate high sexual-risk access, particularly among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) individuals. Recognition of the characteristics of using these platforms and identifying factors related to high sexual risk among LGBTQ youths will facilitate both targeting of those at risk and subsequent intervention. Materials and Methods: Adolescents and youths were invited to voluntarily join this study, scan the QR code, and anonymously complete the questionnaires. These validated questionnaires were launched online via a popular platform among LGBTQs during 2017-2018. Multiple logistic regression was employed to identify factors independently associated with high sexual risk among study subjects. Results: Of 360 participants (mean age: 21±2.8 years, range: 11-25), 60.8% self-reported as homosexual, and the rest were bisexual. Median dating app/website usage was 2 (range 1-10). Two-thirds (62.8%) met partners from those e-platforms, and most (79.6%) developed a sexual relationship. Over half (52.2%) did not use a condom, and one-third (30.6%) abused substances during sex. Poor condom compliance, multiple partners, and substance use were strongly associated with individuals who used >2 apps for longer than 3 years. Depression susceptibility was 32.2%, and was related to condom-use failure (p=0.01). Conclusion: Among LGBTQs, the greater the number and longer time exposed to dating apps/websites, the higher the number of sexual risk behaviors. Moreover, unsafe sex increased among individuals at risk for depression.","PeriodicalId":37270,"journal":{"name":"Siriraj Medical Journal","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135304955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

PDN is a severe health issue that represents a huge social and economic burden worldwide, is associated with long-term morbidity, and diminishes the quality of life of those affected. The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a mixture of the two primary components of chronic inflammatory diseases (high neutrophils and low lymphocytes) that contribute to the production of PDN. This study aimed to demonstrate high serum NRL levels enhance the risk of PDN in type 2 DM patients. Materials and Methods: This study employed a case-control design, collecting data from the registers and outpatient medical records of Prof. Dr. IGNG Ngoerah General Hospital type 2 DM patients who satisfied the inclusion and exclusion criteria between January 2018 and December 2019. Based on clinical neuropathy and abnormal electrodiagnostic testing, the PDN diagnosis was established. Serum NLR was collected from laboratory tests recorded by a computer. Results: The Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve approach determined the NLR cut-off value of 2.18. High NLR substantially increased the incidence of PDN (OR 10.36; 95% CI 3.69-29.07; p<0.001). Other characteristics evaluated, including duration of diabetes, usage of anti-diabetic medications, uncontrolled diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, were not significantly associated with the incidence of PDN. High serum NLR was an independent risk factor for PDN in type 2 DM patients (adjusted OR=10.36; 95% CI: 3.57-29.07; p<0.001). Conclusion: Based on the findings of this investigation, it was determined that elevated serum NLR increases the risk of PDN events in patients with type 2 DM.","PeriodicalId":37270,"journal":{"name":"Siriraj Medical Journal","volume":"125 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139343467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Univariate analysis revealed that depression and usual activities were significantly associated with satisfaction for current PASS, future PASS, and lifelong PASS. Conclusion: Disease severity, age, marital status, problems with usual activities, and depression/anxiety were significantly related to CLCI. These findings may allow physicians to identify psychosocial and psychological aspects of psoriatic patients at high risk for developing CLCI.
