Urinary trypsin inhibitor (UTI) forms membrane complexes with UTI-binding proteins (UTI-BPs) and initiates modulation of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) expression, which results in UTI-mediated suppression of cell invasiveness. It has been established that suppression of uPA expression and invasiveness by UTI is mediated through inhibition of protein kinase C-dependent signaling pat...

OBJECTIVE To assess the relationship between maternal UTI during pregnancy and neonatal UTI. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study included eighty neonates referred to Ali-e-Asghar Hospital, Tehran, Iran, in 2011. The participants were divided into the study (with diagnosis of UTI; n = 40) and the control (without this type of infection; n = 40) groups. The mothers were asked about...

The current population-based study investigated the onset of neonatal urinary tract infection (UTI) and the associated risks of allergic rhinitis. From 2000 to 2005, 3285 children with neonatal UTI and 13,128 randomly selected controls were enrolled from the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan and frequency matched by gender, urbanization of residential area, parental occupati...

OBJECTIVES To determine whether cranberry capsules prevent urinary tract infection (UTI) in long-term care facility (LTCF) residents. DESIGN Double-blind randomized placebo-controlled multicenter trial. SETTING Long-term care facilities (LTCFs). PARTICIPANTS LTCF residents (N = 928; 703 women, median age 84). MEASUREMENTS Cranberry and placebo capsules were taken twice daily for 12 mont...

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common infection after kidney transplantation. A previous analysis showed that late (>6 mo after transplantation) UTI is associated with earlier graft loss in adults. It was hypothesized that children who are younger than 18 yr would be at higher risk to develop UTI and develop graft loss after both early and late UTI. The US Renal Data System database ...
