Effects of a Prophylactic Treatment with Horseradish Root and Nasturtium Herb on Urinary Tract Infections in Individuals with Chronic Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Introduction: Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common in individuals with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) and greatly affect their quality of life. There is currently no established prophylactic measure based on evidence. We have therefore evaluated the effects of a horseradish root and nasturtium herb product on the frequency of UTIs in a retrospective cohort.
Methods: Clinical data of patients with chronic NLUTD who were receiving the phytotherapeuticum for at least 12 months were analyzed. The number of UTIs was categorized as no UTIs, sporadic UTIs (1-2/year) and recurrent UTIs (≥3/year). The change in the annual number of patient-reported symptomatic UTIs and antibiotic prescriptions was investigated.
Results: Data of 43 individuals (mean age 49 ± 13 years, median NLUTD duration 17.9 years) were analyzed. The proportion of individuals with recurrent UTIs decreased significantly (p < 0.0001) from 58.1% (42.1-73.0%) to 23.3% (11.8-38.6%) during phytotherapy, whereas the proportion of individuals without UTIs increased significantly (p = 0.001) from 14.0% (5.3-27.9%) to 39.5% (25.0-55.6%). In addition, there was a significant (p = 0.008) decrease in the number of antibiotic prescriptions.
Conclusion: Prophylactic treatment with horseradish root and nasturtium herb seems to be a promising option for the prevention of UTIs.
期刊介绍:
Concise but fully substantiated international reports of clinically oriented research into science and current management of urogenital disorders form the nucleus of original as well as basic research papers. These are supplemented by up-to-date reviews by international experts on the state-of-the-art of key topics of clinical urological practice. Essential topics receiving regular coverage include the introduction of new techniques and instrumentation as well as the evaluation of new functional tests and diagnostic methods. Special attention is given to advances in surgical techniques and clinical oncology. The regular publication of selected case reports represents the great variation in urological disease and illustrates treatment solutions in singular cases.
