Abstract Introduction and hypothesis Long-term safety concerns have risen over the mid-urethral sling operation (MUS) for stress urinary incontinence (SUI), which in some countries has led to litigations and even suspending MUS insertions. We examined the long-term re-procedure rate after MUS operations. The main outcome was re-procedures for SUI. The secondary outcome was surgical interventions due to complications. Methods We analysed a retrospective population cohort of 3531 women with MUS operations ...

Abstract Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the risk of cardiac and stroke deaths in women who discontinue postmenopausal hormone therapy (HT). Methods: We analyzed the risk of death due to cardiac ( n = 5,204) and cerebrovascular ( n = 3,434) causes in Finnish women who discontinued systemic HT during 1994 to 2013 ( n = 432,775). The risks were compared with those in the age-matched female background population and with those in age-matched HT users. Women diagnosed with cardiac or cerebrovascular ...

Study design In this prospective cohort study, women (n = 207) with symptomatic apical prolapse, with or without cystocele, were operated using the Uphold™ Vaginal Support System. Follow-up for quality of life was performed at 12 months after surgery, and assessed by the PFDI-20, and PFIQ-7, and sexual function by the PISQ-12. We used odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence ...

Background Chronic pelvic pain is not a rare health problem among women. One of the most common causes of chronic pelvic pain is pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS). We have reviewed all medical literature on the endovascular treatment of PCS and hereby provide a brief overview of the anatomy, pathophysiology, and clinical aspects of ovarian and pelvic varices. We describe the technique of transcatheter embolization, the complications thereof and the clinical results of the treatment. Methods A literature search ...

Local cervical factors may determine the outcome of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Nitric oxide (NO) may be one such factor, since it is produced by uterine cervical cells and it takes part in both immunological and carcinogenic reactions. We studied the association between the presence of cervical high risk (hr) HPV DNA and NO in the cervical canal in women.High risk HPV DNA status was assessed from 328 women by using a specific DNA test and the release of cervical NO was assessed as nitrate/ ...

Hysterectomy has been associated with increased risk for developing stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and having a SUI operation. We examined the long-term rate of SUI operations after hysterectomy and associated risk factors.We followed up 5000 women without prior urinary incontinence (UI) who had a hysterectomy in a prospective FINHYST 2006 cohort study until the end of 2016 through a national health register. The main outcome was SUI operations, and secondary outcomes were outpatient visits for ...

The impact of estradiol-based hormone therapy (HT) on the incidence of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is unknown. Therefore, we compared the use of such HT regimens and tibolone in women with and without SUI. The women with a history of SUI operation (N = 15,002) were identified from the Finnish National Hospital Discharge Register, and the control women without such an operation (N = 44,389) from the Finnish Central Population Register. The use of HT was traced from the National Drug Reimbursement Register, ...

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) affects millions of women worldwide. Pelvic floor muscle training is the first-line treatment for SUI, and if this fails, midurethral sling surgery has become the gold-standard treatment. More recently, complications from midurethral mesh slings, particularly chronic pain and dyspareunia, have become a major concern. Although traditional SUI treatments, such as colposuspension and fascia slings, are used, the future of SUI treatment likely will rely on less invasive ...

Nitric oxide may serve as one cofactor for human papillomavirus (HPV)-induced development of cervical cancer. Therefore, we first assessed the levels of cervical fluid nitric oxide metabolite (NOx) in 283 women with and without high-risk (hr) HPV. The NOx level in women with hr HPV (48.4 μmol/L [95% CI: 39.4-56.6], n = 199) was higher (p < 0.001) than that in women without hr HPV (24.6 μmol/L [95% CI: 19.1-38.7], n = 84). Second, we evaluated if cervical fluid NOx levels could predict the persistence of hr HPV. ...

Receptors for estrogen and progesterone are present in the pelvic floor, and therefore, postmenopausal hormone therapy may affect its function. We compared the former use of estradiol-progestogen postmenopausal hormone therapy in nonhysterectomized women with a uterine prolapse surgery (N = 12,072) and control women (N = 33,704).The women with a history of uterine prolapse operation were identified from the Finnish National Hospital Discharge Register, and the control women from the Finnish Central Population ...
