(1) In the genitourinary clinic setting, clinical diagnosis prior to biopsy was found frequently to be inaccurate.
(2) In short term clinical studies, the beneficial effects of transdermal estradiol on plasma gonadotrophins, maturation of the vaginal epithelium, metabolic parameters of bone resorption and menopausal symptoms (hot flushes, sleep disturbance, genitourinary discomfort and mood alteration) appear to be comparable to those of oral and subcutaneous estrogens, while the undesirable effects of oral estrogens on hepatic metabolism are avoided.
(3) Positive results were rather less common in black patients born in the tropics attending a genitourinary medicine in London and were similar to findings in blood donors in the West Indies.
(4) Medium from other cultured human cells (prostate fibroblasts, genitourinary tumor and non-tumor cells), as well as control medium, contained less than 1 ng.
(5) Ten percent of the patients suffered major gastrointestinal complications, 14% minor gastrointestinal morbidity, 12% minor genitourinary complications, one patient a lymphocyst, and one patient lymphedema.
(6) Serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and acid phosphatase (AP) levels were measured before and after digital rectal examination in 26 patients with varying genitourinary complaints.
(7) Hindgut duplications are often associated with genitourinary or spinal anomalies.
(8) Several infants reported as having this combined disorder were also noted to have significant genitourinary disease.
(9) Enterococci were recovered most frequently from urine (62.5%) and genitourinary samples (13.7%).
(10) A colposcopy clinic held within a genitourinary medicine clinic.
(11) Sixty-five patients had complete obstruction; 37 of these had primary adenocarcinoma of the colon, and the rest, cancer from other primary sites, largely the genitourinary tract.
(12) Speakers included a physician, a consultant in genitourinary medicine, and a representative from the Terence Higgins Trust -- a charitable body set up to help people with AIDS.
(13) Seventy one patients with unresponsive penile dermatoses attending a specific internal referral clinic within the department of genitourinary medicine and 36 patients undergoing penile biopsy following attendance at other departments within the same hospital.
(14) Extraarticular manifestations include inflammation of the eyes, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and genitourinary tract associated with inflammation of the entheses.
(15) The author reviews the pathogenesis, microbiology, diagnosis, and treatment of genitourinary prosthesis infections.
(16) A total of 31 cervical biopsy specimens were taken from 29 women attending a genitourinary medicine clinic, nine women (11 biopsy specimens) were known to have Chlamydia trachomatis cervicitis and 20 women were known to be free of chlamydial infection.
(17) However, if a patient has signs and symptoms of acute cholecystitis plus the recent onset of a purulent genitourinary infection, the diagnosis of FHCS is suggested.
(18) High age, origin in the gastrointestinal or genitourinary tract, malignancies and surgery or invasive, diagnostic procedures are indicative of anaerobic etiology.
(19) Evaluation must be multifactorial and extend beyond the genitourinary system, because many age-related conditions and the drugs used to treat them can cause or exacerbate urinary incontinence.
(20) We studied prospectively 50 asymptomatic men (24 men from infertile couples and 26 normal volunteers) with no history of genitourinary infection and 34 men referred for symptoms of chronic prostatitis.
