Specifically, urine spot area, group a showed a significant reduction in urine spot area compared with the control group (<i>P</i> < 0.05), while groups b and c did not show significant differences. Pain threshold: The von Frey filament test indicated increased visceral pain in group a, aligning closely with IC/BPS patient symptoms, without a significant increase in urination frequency. Urodynamic assessments: Group a exhibited decreased bladder compliance and reduced maximum bladder capacity (<i>P</i> < 0.05), with no significant differences in baseline bladder pressure and maximum detrusor pressure across all groups. Histological analysis: Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining revealed that bladder tissue in group a had moderate inflammatory reactions, whereas groups b and c showed severe inflammation and tissue damage, correlating with the higher doses of CYP. Furthermore, the urine spot tests and von frey filament tests provided quantitative data supporting the model's reliability, urine spot count, group a had an average urine spot count of (15±3) spots, significantly higher than the control group's (5±2) spots (<i>P</i> < 0.01).

The basic clinical characteristics without GnRH stimulation test were analyzed by binary Logistic regression analysis, indicating that the level of FMV urine LH, uterine volume, ovarian volume and advanced T-bone age had predictive significance for CPP diagnosis in girls (<i>OR</i> values were 2.125, 1.961, 1.564 and 2.672, respectively). The prediction model was established and the area under the ROC curve was 0.904, <i>P</i> < 0.001. The level of FMV urine LH was positively correlated with the levels of serum LH, FSH and estrogen before GnRH stimulation test, the peak value of blood LH after GnRH stimulation test, T bone age and uterine volume, with <i>r</i> values of 0.462, 0.373, 0.242, 0.360, 0.373 and 0.263, respectively, and <i>P</i> values were < 0.001, < 0.001, 0.013, < 0.001, < 0.001 and 0.007, respectively.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>FMV urine LH can provide a good indication for the diagnosis of CPP. Combining with bone age advanced level and pelvic ultrasound measurement, the predictive value of FMV urine LH can be further improved for the diagnosis of CPP in girls.</p>","PeriodicalId":8790,"journal":{"name":"北京大学学报（医学版）","volume":"56 5","pages":"788-793"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11480549/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142456986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
