Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a result of the development of microorganisms in the urinary tract, which in normal conditions do not contain bacteria, viruses, or other microorganisms. Urinary tract infections are also infections that occupy the second position that most often attacks the body after respiratory infections. The objective of the study was to identify the relationship between catheter placement and the incidence of urinary tract infections at Royal Prima hospital Medan. This is a correlation study (correlation study) on the patients suffering from urinary tract infections. The sampling technique used was a saturated sampling technique. Analysis research data using the Spearmen test. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the majority of catheter installation was in the category of good were 78%, and in the category of not good 22%, and 78% suffered from do not experience urinary tract infections, and 22% infection urinary tract. The results of the study of the Spearmen test showed that p-value = 0.00. It was found that there was a relationship between catheter insertion and the incidence of urinary tract infections in the inpatient room. The local nurses are suggested to improve the aseptic technique of care performed when catheterization is performed so that the incidence of urinary tract infections due to catheter installation can be avoided.

The Relationship

One of the main complications that cause maternal death is preeclampsia/eclampsia. Activation of the systemic inflammatory response is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia. Urinary tract infections (UTI) can cause activation of the systemic inflammatory response, so that it is considered capable of causing preeclampsia. Procalcitonin is known as a marker of infection and very stable in serum, so it is a promising biomarker in detecting UTI. The investigators intend to investigate the association between UTI and preeclampsia through exploration of procalcitonin levels in preeclampsia and non-preeclampsia mothers. This study was a cross-sectional method, accident sampling technique. Respondents in this study amounted to 65, preeclampsia criteria were 40, and not preeclampsia were 25. The results showed no relationship between urinary tract infections during pregnancy and preeclampsia P = 0.074. Even so, procalcitonin levels in preeclampsia mothers were found to be higher than mothers without preeclampsia, with a value of P = 0.005. Which means that the inflammation that occurs in preeclampsia mothers is not caused by urinary tract infections. It is hoped that further research can be carried out on the relationship of urinary tract infections and preeclampsia by using a larger sample.

Current Paradigm

The current paradigm of urinary tract infection (UTI) pathogenesis takes into account the contamination of the periurethral space by specific uropathogens residing in the gut, which is followed by urethral colonization and pathogen ascension to the urinary bladder. Consequently, studying the relationship between gut microbiota and the subsequent development of bacteriuria and UTI represents an important field of research. However, the well-established diagnostic and therapeutic paradigm for urinary tract infections (UTIs) has come into question with the discovery of a multifaceted, symbiotic microbiome in the healthy urogenital tract. More specifically, emerging data suggest that vaginal dysbiosis may result in Escherichia coli colonization and prompt recurrent UTIs, while urinary microbiome perturbations may precede the development of UTIs and other pathologic conditions of the urinary system. The question is whether these findings can be exploited for risk reduction and treatment purposes. This review aimed to appraise the three aforementioned specific microbiomes regarding their potential influence on UTI development by focusing on the recent studies in the field and assessing the potential linkages between these different niches, as well as evaluating the state of translational research for novel therapeutic and preventative approaches.

The Impact

Although urinary tract infections (UTIs) are considered to be the most common bacterial infections worldwide, their assessment remains a big clinical challenge, because they are not reportable diseases in developed countries like United States and any other parts of the world including India. This situation is further complicated by the fact that accurate diagnosis depends on both the presence of symptoms and a positive urine culture, although in most outpatient settings this diagnosis is made without the benefit of culture. Our study aimed to appraise the impact of urinary tract infections symptoms on selected patients and comprehend their adherence to medications despite the challenges of antimicrobial susceptibility and resistance observed. One hundred and twenty patients with confirmed cases of urinary tract infections were recruited for the study. The mean age of females and males patients was found to be 59.86±2.37and 52.27±3 years respectively. Pertinent descriptive and inferential statistics were performed. Spearman correlation test revealed a strong positive correlation between overall UTIs’ symptoms and their impact on patients at baseline (0.84) and at follow up (0.799) with p value =0.5. On the other hand the majority of patients were found to be adherent to the medications after discharge. The current study revealed that Urinary tract infections if left untreated can negatively impact the lives of patients suffering from it and hinder their adherence to medications. Consequently, accurate and early assessment of UTIs’ symptoms in clinics and hospitals becomes a necessity.

Duplicated Ureter

Ectopic ureters are a found in one of every 2000–4000 people. This abnormality can present with urinary tract infections, haematuria, and occasionally incontinence. Ectopic ureters traditionally follow the Weigert-Meyer Law, which describes the relationship of the lower and upper renal moieties. It states that the lower renal pole drains into a laterocranial ureteral orifice (and may reflux), while the upper renal pole drains into a mediocaudal ureteral orifice (and may be obstructed). If a duplicated ureter does not insert into the bladder, it by rule, originates from the upper pole. We present a case of a 42-year-old male who was incidentally found to have what appears to be an ectopic ureter draining from the lower renal pole into a structure contained in the scrotum, hence violating the Weigert-Meyer law.

The kidneys are organs of the body that function to regulate water balance in the body, the concentration of electrolytes in the blood and acid-base balance and secretion of waste material. If the kidney fails to function, the patient will need immediate treatment and even undergo hemodialysis (HD) therapy. A critical indicator in determining whether a person with impaired kidney function requires HD therapy is to know the creatinine level. The study aimed to ascertain the differences in creatinine levels pre and post HD also study the relationship between the age, gender, duration and frequency of HD therapy of respondents with the decrease of creatinine levels pre and post. Type of research detailed survey with a cross-sectional design. The sample was taken using a total sampling technique of 35 respondents from H BadaruddinKasimHospitalin Tanjung with a sample examination technique using the Jaffe method. The examination results of creatinine levels average for pre and post hemodialysis was11,36 and 5,58 mg/dl, which decreased 51%. The analysis statistically used Paired T-Test has a p-value = 0,000, indicating a significant difference for creatinine levels pre and post HD. Relationship between Age, Gender, Duration, and Frequency of HD Therapy with the decrease of creatinine levels pre and post HD was analyzed with Spearmen correlation and had p values more than 0,05. It means there was no relation between them. Conclusion there were significant differences in creatinine levels reduction pre and post HD while the relationship between the four of respondent characteristics to the magnitude of creatinine reduction show that there was no significant relationship.

This study aims to the incidence of preeclampsia and determine differences in heparin-binding protein levels in preeclamptic and non-preeclamptic mothers and determine the relationship between urinary tract infections in pregnancy. The research design was cross-sectional on 65 respondents with an accidental sampling technique. The research data were obtained from a questionnaire containing a list of questions given to respondents, measurement of middle urine samples to measure nitrite, leukocytes urine using dipstick method, and to determine heparin binding protein (HBP) levels using the ELISA method in the Hasanuddin University RSP Research Laboratory. The results of the study found there was a difference in the levels of heparin-binding protein in pregnant women without preeclampsia, namely 1.90±0.22 Ng/ml and HBP levels in pregnant women preeclampsia ie 2.39±0.3 Ng/ml. That there was no significant relationship between urinary tract infections (UTI) and the incidence of preeclampsia with p= 0.074. The conclusion in this study is that the levels of heparin-binding protein differ in preeclamptic and non-preeclamptic mothers, the increase in HBP levels in preeclampsia is due to inflammation, the cause is not through UTI. There is no association between urinary tract infections in pregnant women and the incidence of preeclampsia.

This study was to determine the bacteria that are prevalent in Urinary tract infections and the sensitivity of organisms isolated from the urine of adolescent and adult women of 8- 52 years old in Ogbete Coal camp in Enugu metropolis, south east Nigeria. A total of 218 individuals, both in and out patients were investigated, 197 (90.3%) women were diagnosed for Urinary tract infections. Therefore, incidence of UTI were prevalent in the age groups of 13-17 and 18-22, with P value (p=0.047 and S.D of ± 5.6). The microorganisms implicated in infection were bacteria, fungi, yeast and protozoa. Among the bacteria, two were identified as Gram positive cocci i.e. Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus saprophyticus, while Gram negative bacilli were Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, Pseudomonas areuginosa. Yeast like fungus Candida albican, protozoan (Trichomonasvaginalis) was also identified. The isolated organism which was prevalent was Staphylococcus aureus (48.2%); followed by Escherichia coli (34.5%). Also, Pseudomonas aureuginosa, Proteus and Klebsiella were isolated. Factors responsible for frequent cases of Urinary tract infections among diagnosed women include shortness of urethra among the females, lack of personal hygiene, sexual intercourse, socio economic challenges in various homes and others. Sensitivity profiles revealed that Augumentin was highly susceptible to Staphylococcus aureus (65%) while Escherichia coli were highly resistant to commonly used drugs such as Ampicillin, and Cloxacillin while Gentamycin was the most active against bacteria isolates.

Phimosis is the inability of the penis to potrude from the prepuce either partially or completely and the preputial retractability increases with age. Circumcision is believed by various parties as a form of defense against pathogens that may cause various abnormalities. Smegma is whitish lump that formed from desquamation of preputial epithelial cells. Smegma and bacteria in the prepuce may cause abnormalities such as genital infections, urinary tract infections, and even malignancy. This study aims to determine the presence between phimosis, smegma, and preputial bacteria, and its relationship with inflammatory status of circumcised patient. A cross sectional analytical study for boys who underwent circumcision at Saiful Anwar General Hospital Malang. The data will be analyzed using chi-square and will be calculated for the relative risk. There were 76 patients who underwent circumcision from March 2018 until August 2018. The result was found that the presence of phimosis was significantly associated with the presence of smegma and preputial bacteria (p <0.01) with a risk of 30x and 8x respectively. However, the presence of smegma and preputial bacteria in the prepuce was not significantly associated with the inflammatory status in the prepuce (p = 0.541 & p = 0.084). In conclusion, the presence of phimosis has a significant risk in the formation of smegma and the growth of preputial bacteria.
