摘要:

This review considers bacterial virulence factors, including adhesins such as fimbriae, as well as other factors that increase the pathogenicity of adherent organisms, such as hemolysin. The importance of the secretor status and its effect on bacterial adherence now enable us to understand at least the initial factors in urinary tract infection.

摘要:

The development of a reproducible lower urinary tract bacteriological localization technique, a standardized classification system, and new insights into antibiotic pharmacokinetics in the prostate have stimulated research in the prostatitis syndromes. The diagnostic systems, however, are not being aggressively employed and effective therapy for the chronic forms of prostatic inflammation does not exist. Over the past several years, basic and clinical research reveals that we are on the right track to addressing these problems with this very difficult and frustrating disease entity.

摘要:

The risk of infection caused by specific diagnostic or therapeutic procedures may differ widely. If the risk is less than 5%, usually no prophylaxis is necessary. This is the case in patients with low-risk factors and sterile urine undergoing endoscopie diagnostic procedures and extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL). Even though the risk of infection may be higher in transurethral surgery, prophylaxis is necessary only in patients with high-risk factors, whereas in patients with low-risk factors it may be optional, because the rate of postoperative bacteriuria can be lowered. Antimicrobial therapy, however, is mandatory in all patients with bacteriuria. In patients undergoing renal transplantation in addition to the perioperative prophylaxis, long-term prophylaxis may be necessary to lower the risk of infectious complications while the patient is under immunosuppressive therapy.

摘要:

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) have re-emerged in epidemic proportions in certain geographic locations, especially among heterosexual populations. In addition, recognition of the prevalence and sequelae of the viral STDs has continued. Active research continues in the areas of epidemiology, diagnosis, and optimal treatment.
