Dr. Weiss on defining nocturia and separating it from overactive bladder

"The objective of this study was to assess baseline knowledge about urinary tract infections, interest in health resources, and platform preferences for health information acquisition and dissemination," says Stephanie Gleicher, MD.

“We need to just approach STIs as the medical conditions they are because until we do, and until we take those stigmas away, people will truly have resistance to discussing it, hesitance to discussing it, and resistance to diagnosis and intervention,” says Ashley Winter, MD.

"What we believe is happening is women are seeking the help of female urologists, and therefore, because of the nature of the condition, the female urologists are absorbing the burden of the care of these patients, particularly the non-billable burden," says Debra L. Fromer, MD.

“I think people can feel like they're all alone, or they have something that's uncommon, and it may not be,” says J. Quentin Clemens, MD, FACS, MSCI.

The predictive models identified the number of previous UTI episodes, prior β-lactam nonsusceptibility, prior fluoroquinolone treatment, Census Bureau region (particularly in the South), and race as key predictors of having a non-susceptible isolate to 3 or more antibiotic classes.

"In our professional life, awareness of our bias in seeing patients based on their weight, color, age, literacy level, or social status is evident," writes Gopal H. Badlani, MD.
