چکیده

Background: To compare the c l in ica l e f fec t o f varicocelectomy treatment between patients who were diagnosed as secondary varicocele caused by nutcracker syndrome (NCS) and primary varicocele patients. Methods: The secondary varicocele patients combined with NCS admitted in our hospital were systematically reviewed. All these patients had no obvious related symptoms such as gross hematuria and abdominal pain and so on. After the comprehensive examinations, the patients underwent the operation of microsurgical varicocelectomy. During the same period, the patients who were diagnosed as primary varicocele and underwent varicocelectomy were randomly selected as control group. The patients were required to make follow up 6 months and 1 year after the surgery in clinic. The number of varicocele recurrence of the both groups was calculated. And the patients’ numbers of improved semen quality, spouse pregnancy, testicular and perineal discomfort improvements were analyzed to compare whether there was significant difference between the two groups by Chi-square test. Results: In left varicocele patients combined with NCS, one year after left varicocelectomy, the recurrence rate was elevated, patients’ symptom of scrotal pain did not alleviate obviously, and the rate of the spouse pregnancy declined. Conclusions: For the patients with secondary varicocele caused by NCS, compared with the primary varicocele patients, the surgical treatment efficacy declined, and its higher recurrence rate might be related with the velocity of the stenosis site in left renal vein.

Abnormal cerebral microstructure in premature neonates with congenital heart disease.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Abnormal cerebral microstructure has been documented in term neonates with congenital heart disease, portending risk for injury and poor neurodevelopmental outcome. Our hypothesis was that preterm neonates with congenital heart disease would demonstrate diffuse cerebral microstructural abnormalities when compared with critically ill neonates without congenital heart disea...

Structural white matter asymmetries in relation to functional asymmetries during speech perception and production

Functional hemispheric asymmetries of speech production and perception are a key feature of the human language system, but their neurophysiological basis is still poorly understood. Using a combined fMRI and tract-based spatial statistics approach, we investigated the relation of microstructural asymmetries in language-relevant white matter pathways and functional activation asymmetries during ...

CSF contamination contributes to apparent microstructural alterations in mild cognitive impairment

Diffusion MRI is used widely to probe microstructural alterations in neurological and psychiatric disease. However, ageing and neurodegeneration are also associated with atrophy, which leads to artefacts through partial volume effects due to cerebrospinal-fluid contamination (CSFC). The aim of this study was to explore the influence of CSFC on apparent microstructural changes in mild cognitive ...

Dapoxetine: a pharmacological therapy for the treatment of premature ejaculation

Classification & definition of premature ejaculation Premature ejaculation (PE) can be broadly classified as ‘lifelong’ (primary), characterized by onset from the first sexual encounter and persisting throughout life, or ‘acquired’ (secondary), which tends to have either a gradual or sudden onset following previously normal ejaculation [1,2]. Several definitions of PE exist, including the widel...

Gray Matter Surface Based Spatial Statistics (GS-BSS) in Diffusion Microstructure

Tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) has proven to be a popular technique for performing voxel-wise statistical analysis that aims to improve sensitivity and interpretability of analysis of multi-subject diffusion imaging studies in white matter. With the advent of advanced diffusion MRI models - e.g., the neurite orientation dispersion density imaging (NODDI), it is of interest to analyze mic...
