PSPCA Rescues Abandoned Dog From Choking In North Philadelphia
By Tim Jimenez
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) –The Pennsylvania SPCA is offering a $500 dollar reward in a case of animal cruelty. Officials say they rescued a dog, tied to a chain link fence, and on the verge of a "slow and painful death" Tuesday morning.
George Bengal with the PSPCA, says they got a tip that an adult female brown and white dog was tied to a fence near the Awbury Rec Center at Haines and Ardleigh Streets in East Germantown.
"Pitbull mix tied to the tennis court fence on a short, no more than 15 inch, 16 inch, wire cable," Bengal said.
And Bengal says the dog, who officials named Venus, was showing signs of choking.
"And the face and the eyes were totally swollen up because this dog could not lay down. All it could do was sit," Bengal said.
And sitting there for about 16 hours, in the heat and without water Bengal says. Venus though is expected to recover and is being treated.
Anyone with information is urged to call the PSPCA at 1-866-601-SPCA.

World food prices are likely to rise for a third successive month in March, and could gain further beyond that, with expensive oil and chronically low stocks of some key grains putting food inflation firmly back on the economic agenda.
Food prices grabbed world policy makers' attention after hitting record highs in February 2011 and stoking protests connected to the Arab Spring wave of civil unrest in some north Africa and middle eastern countries.
Prices later receded, but an upturn which began in January, initally seen as a pause in the overall downtrend, has persisted.

Travellers got a send-off with a difference when Aorere College students filled Auckland International Airport with rhythm and soul.
The airport has introduced a performance programme that sees creative community groups perform every month for visitors and staff at the terminals.
Auckland Airport's general manager of corporate affairs, Charles Spillane, says the programme is aimed at helping to showcase local talent.
"We are proud to be part of a local community that has an abundance of talented, vibrant and creative individuals," he says.
"It is brilliant to see these students from Aorere College having the opportunity to sing and play in front of all these people."
The performances are organised to lineup with busy times at the international terminal, providing peak exposure for the groups.
Aorere College student Miracle Faasavalu says it was a unique experience.
"We are used to a set stage and a microphone and then being out here in the open at the airport, people just walking past . . . they can either like it and stay or walk away and forget it, it's a real honest opinion," the year 13 student says.
The Aorere College lineup included solo singers, group instrumentals and a singing group.
Music teacher Brent McGarva says principal Patrick Drumm sees music as the soul of Aorere.
"The best part is that it is an authentic performance for the kids, for their assess-ments and for their exper-ience as musicians as well," McGarva says.
The next group to perform at the airport will be Clayton Park School in September.

Source: The Heyman HustleGabe Sapolsky has posted a blog on the success of Daniel Bryan and CM Punk, which you can read on the "Heyman Hustle" website. Here is an excerpt
So my "f--k YOU" isn't for Punk or Bryan. I am beyond happy for both and excited for their futures. For years, I had to hear critics, journalists, naysayers and detractors tell me reason after reason why neither would ever make it under the bright lights of WWE. They picked both Punk and Bryan apart trying to highlight every weakness they perceived that they had. To all of those people I proudly say "f--k YOU."
Bryan and Punk prove that independent wrestling has today's new stars. I believe we have several of these athletes now in Dragon Gate USA and EVOLVE. Talent like Johnny Gargano, Ricochet, Akira Tozawa, Sami Callihan, Chuck Taylor, Rich Swann, Uhaa Nation, PAC, Brodie Lee and AR Fox, to name a few, have arrived. They aren't tomorrow's stars, they are today's new generation. I said it about Punk and Bryan in 2005 and I'm saying it today about these exciting performers. If you aren't already watching, it's time for you to start paying attention and enjoy the ride to the top of the WWE Universe

McDonald's UK has launched a crowdsourced campaign inviting fans to create a sandwich recipe for the chance to have their burger served in restaurants nationwide.
Competitors can build their virtual sandwich by adding ingredients from a shortlist of items such chorizo sausage, pepperoni, nacho chips, brie, cheese and bacon sauce, guacamole, Piri Piri sauce, jalapenos and pineapple rings on the site My Burger.
One of the most popular submissions is made with a chili and paprika bun, maple-cured bacon, fried onions, smokey barbecue sauce, lettuce and goat cheese.
The 12 burgers that receive the most online votes will be put to a taste test by a panel of judges who will choose five winners, which will then be served at McDonald's restaurants across the UK.
It's not the first time McDonald's has handed the reins of their test kitchens to the public.
When customers in Germany were challenged to create a new sandwich for the chain, they came up with sandwiches like the Pretzelnator, made with a pretzel bun, American and Italian cheese, ham, lettuce, onions and mayo, and a double-patty burger topped with a curry chili sauce and chorizo sausage.
Meanwhile, a McDonald's outlet in California has been quietly testing a new concept that allows customers to custom build their own burgers using tablets, in a move that could serve as a sign of things to come.
This week, Burger King also tweaked its 40-year-old motto from "Have it your way" to "Be your way" to emphasise the concept of personalisation.
The competition closes on June 15. On June 29, the top burgers will be replicated at McDonald's test kitchens and the five winners announced. – AFP Relaxnews

28 May 2015, C. Leeham Co: I am in Toulouse today attending Airbus Innovation days for Leeham News. It has been a good day's briefings and I have presented what was perhaps the biggest change since we last met Airbus in the article "Airbus A350-1000 getting real".
Apart from this program, there were more standard updates on Airbus other activities and programs. Here follows a rundown on these updates in a more paraphrased form.
May 28, 2015, c. Leeham Co. Embraer is ramping up is messaging that the E-Jet family provides a better Return on Capital Employed in many circumstance than the larger Airbus and Boeing single-aisle family.
In a new push to be unveiled at the Paris Air Show in a little over two weeks, Embraer will describe its "New Metrics for Success" to an international audience in an open forum.
EMB has been showing airlines and lessors the concept for some time, and we received a briefing on the essential elements when we visited EMB last October at is home base in San Jose, Brazil.
New Metrics for Success takes airlines away from the traditional metric of economics, the Cost per Available Seat mile, and focuses trip costs and the higher quality revenue obtained by limiting the number of low-yield seats on a flight that must be offered to fill larger airplanes. Read more
By Bjorn Fehrm
May 28, 2015, c. Leeham Co. We are visiting the Airbus Innovation days where we have been given an update all Airbus civil aircraft programs. The perhaps most interesting update is the progress of the A350-1000 as its forerunner, A350-900, is ramping its production to 15 aircraft during 2015.
The A350-1000 is next in turn; it will be flying next summer and will enter service with first customer Qatar Airways summer of 2017. The A350-1000 is getting more real and Airbus gave a good insight to the aircraft's readiness for prime time during the sessions of today.
May 26, 2015: Key Japanese suppliers on the Boeing 777 program have told Bank of America Merrill Lynch they expect a production rate cut in 2016, BAML aerospace analyst Ron Epstein reports in a note published earlier today.
Epstein cites BAML's Japanese industrial analyst Takahiro Mori in his own note dated May 21. Mori also wrote that Boeing is cutting pricing to its supply chain in Japan, putting additional squeeze on profits.
By Bjorn Fehrm
May 25, 2015, c. Leeham Co. Friday we showed our little video from our test flight of Airbus A350 at end of April. Now it is time to describe the impressions during the flight more in detail. Different from the excellent reports of other magazines that were present, we will look deeper into flying an aircraft with Fly By Wire in contrast to a conventionally controlled aircraft and less in trying to compare the A350 with other airliners, as we don't have this experience.
Our lack of experience in flying airliners has an advantage when it comes to first impression of how it is to fly the much-discussed Airbus Fly By Wire (FBW) concept. My experience so far has all been non-FBW aircraft, from very small and slow (Tiger Moth) to the fast and a bit larger (Mach 1.7 SAAB Draken). In all, I've flown 14 different types. To that, one can add having flown the Embraer KC-390 simulator last October. Some of the aircraft have had no servos. Others had 100% servos with artificial feel through springs working on the stick. Autopilots have differed widely from wings leveler to flight director aircraft with coupled ILS approaches. None has had auto-thrust to date except for the KC-390.
May 25, 2015, c. Leeham Co. Airline stocks took a dive last week when it appeared fare wars and eroding capacity discipline is beginning among US carriers.
Southwest Airlines said it will be adding capacity at the rate of 6%-7% compared with recent increases of 2%-3% and American Airlines said it will begin matching the prices of Low Cost and Ultra Low Cost Carriers rather than see its market share erode.
And the markets went into a tizzy.
I'm old enough to remember when American aggressively matched the low fares of the emerging new entrant airlines after deregulation in the 1980s. The matching spread and the 1980s became a bloodbath. Read more

May 25, 2015, c. Leeham Co. The Paris Air Show this year isn't expected to be a big venue for orders from Airbus, Boeing and Bombardier (although since ouir Airbus Preview, an official now says there will be a "significant number" of orders at the PAS).
Embraer isn't expected to do much out of the ordinary. One of what we call the Big Four Airframe OEMs, EMB's priority this year is garnering orders for the E-Jet E1 to fill out the production gap to the E2.
22 May 2015, C. Leeham Co: As one of four aeronautical media companies we were asked by Airbus if we wanted to test fly the A350 end of January this year. Airbus was arranging for Media test pilots to come and fly the A350 and we had asked for sampling the A350 through its simulator. Airbus returned with the question if I did not want to try the real thing. They did not have to ask twice!
It was all in the preliminary planning stage at the time but come March things got concrete. I should come to Toulouse on April 22 for a full day in the simulator and then the aircraft. As I did not have previous airline flying experience (mainly military fighters and business aircraft), I started training on the rather different system approach that a civil airliner has to a military fighter for Autopilot and Autothrust. I described this training in a previous Bjorn's Corner. Publication of this story was embargoed by Airbus to May 22.

May 20, 2015, c. Leeham Co. The 27th Airbus A350 has started its journey in the Final Assembly Line (FAL) in Toulouse and one can do a first analysis of how the initial batch of A350s has fared on the final production line. For this purpose, we have been closely monitoring the through-flow times for each of the nine steps that constitute the final assembly of the A350.
To Members of the US Congress:
There will be a vote soon on whether to reauthorize the US ExIm Bank. You should do so.
Arguments by some that this is a form of corporate welfare are unfounded. Suggestions that ExIm Bank merely supports The Boeing Co. are misguided.
To be sure, Boeing airplanes received the majority of ExIm Bank commitments and guarantees. This is because Boeing makes the most expensive things ExIm supports. But plenty of small businesses benefit from ExIm as well.
Supporting ExIm for Boeing airplanes creates jobs in America. LionAir of Indonesia ordered hundreds of Boeing 737s. ExIm Bank support was pledged to support this order. LionAir also ordered hundred of Airbus A320s. If ExIm weren't supporting the 737s, it's a fair conclusion LionAir would have ordered more A320s instead of Boeing. Why? Airbus gets active support from the ExIm's equivalent agencies in Europe.
LionAir is but one such example.
Boeing is one of the top exporters (if not the top) of US products. These exports help the US balance of trade.
If ExIm is not reauthorized, Airbus will have an international advantage over Boeing. My market intelligence tells me that Airbus has already used the ambiguity over ExIm's reauthorization in sales campaigns against Boeing.
If there are specific problems with how ExIm is administered, fix them, but don't kill the program that has been around–and successfully supporting American businesses–for decades.
ExIm returns a profit to the US Treasury with its fees and other charges supporting its work. How many government programs can say this?
Stop playing games with and holding hostage ExIm Bank. It's time to grant long-term reauthorization.
Very truly yours,
Scott Hamilton

A BS has been selected to class the first self elevating drilling rig built in Mexico. The rig is a Friede & Goldman JU2000 (E) design to be built by Operadora CICSA headquartered in Mexico City. The rig design is intended for all-year Central North Sea harsh-environment operation in up to 400 feet of water.
According to ABS' Country Manager for Mexico Paul DeLaire, the rig is being built in three locations: Guadalajara, Pueblo Viejo and Tuxpan. The project is under the supervision of ABS' newly established Veracruz Engineering office. Engineers from that office are handling the plan reviews using a completely electronic plan review system created by ABS to facilitate quick turnaround of the drawings.
ABS Surveyor Gustavo Garcia from the society's Tampico Station is the Survey Project Manager supported by a team including Principal Surveyor Roy Ingram; Senior Surveyor Sergio Garcia; and Surveyor Israel Miron. From ABS' Houston worldwide headquarters Principal Engineer Lynnda Pekel will serve as the project's manager.
The steel cutting for the rig took place in February and the rig is scheduled for completion early 2011.

Police to appeal drink-driving acquittal
Relevant offers
Prosecutors are set to appeal after a Westport criminal lawyer avoided a drink-driving conviction because police conducted a breath test on his private property.
Doug Taffs, 59, who used to practise in Christchurch, was caught by police on August 19 with a reading of 480 micrograms of alcohol to a litre of breath. The legal limit is 400mcg.
Taffs has three drink-driving convictions, including an incident where he hid coins in his mouth in a bid to beat the breath-testing machine.
In the latest incident, police attempted to pull Taffs over about 200 metres from his house in Fairdown Rd. Taffs said he did not see the police lights and pulled into his driveway.
The police followed him on to his property and conducted a breath test, which showed he was over the limit.
However, Westport District Court Judge Michael Behrens dismissed the charge because the police conducted the test on private property.
"I find that New Zealand citizens have an expectation that police will not come on to their land and randomly breath-test them," he said.
"I believe the evidence was improperly obtained."
Police prosecutor Dave Murray told The Press he was disappointed with the decision and an appeal was likely.
"I am very disappointed. I can't have a personal opinion, and it is ultimately the judge's decision, but it is not what we were hoping for," he said. "It's very early days, but we will look at forwarding this on for appeal."
The police said that in conducting the breath test they were acting on an "implied licence", which entitled someone to enter a property and knock on the front door to communicate with the occupier, provided they were there for a lawful purpose.
If they were asked to leave, they had to, but police said Taffs never asked them to leave.
Judge Behrens said the implied licence did not permit police to enter a property to conduct a breath test, based on the general right of privacy that individuals had within their property.
Without implied licence, the police would have needed a warrant to breath-test Taffs.
The judge said public interest did not outweigh privacy, particularly on a police officer's "whim", with "absolutely no grounds for a belief . . . that a motorist has been driving with excess alcohol on his breath".
He was not prepared to say Taffs had seen the police car's flashing lights and he believed Taffs had been surprised and concerned to find the officers in his driveway.
Taffs declined to comment to The Press yesterday, but his lawyer, Pip Hall, was pleased with the outcome.
"The judge followed established legal precedent and what it is saying is that the police have no right to gather information in that way," he said.
The decision comes as Police Minister Anne Tolley seeks to come up with a better system of testing drink-drivers because too many are finding "escape routes" to avoid prosecution.
She said yesterday that she wanted to "catch and prosecute as many drink-drivers" as she could.
"I have asked police to review their processes to see how we can simplify the process," she said.
Canterbury road policing manager Inspector Al Stewart said people should not think this was a way to avoid being convicted for drink-driving.
"The officers obviously thought they had the grounds to breath-test him, but in this case we didn't have it correct," he said. "That's what the judges are there for, to review the evidence police give them and keep us on our toes. It's not a way to avoid police.
"If you attempt to do this, we can and will pursue you."

Article: Antimicrobial prophylaxis to prevent perioperative infection in urological surgery: a multicenter study.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We prospectively investigated the rates of incidence of surgical site infection (SSI), urinary tract infection (UTI), and remote infection (RI) in 4,677 patients who underwent urological surgery from January to December 2010, including 2,507 endourological cases, 1,276 clean cases, 807 clean-contaminated cases, and 87 contaminated cases involving bowel segments. A single dose of antimicrobial prophylaxis (AMP) was administered in the endourological, clean, and clean-contaminated surgery cases, except for patients who underwent transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or percutaneous nephrolithotripsy (PNL). AMP was administered within 72 h in TURP and PNL, and AMP was administered within 48 h in contaminated surgery cases. In cases of endourological surgery, UTI was observed in 4 % and RI in 0 %, and SSI, UTI, and RI were seen in 1 %, 1 %, and 1 %, respectively, of clean surgery cases, in 3 %, 3 %, and 2 %, respectively, of clean-contaminated surgery cases, and in 17 %, 30 %, and 10 %, respectively, of contaminated surgery cases. In multivariate analysis of the risk factors for infection, operative time was a significant risk factor for UTI in endourological surgery, and American Society of Anesthesiologists score and operative time were significant risk factors for RI in clean surgery. No significant risk factor was found in analyses of clean-contaminated and contaminated surgery cases. A single-dose AMP regimen was shown to be effective and feasible for prevention of perioperative infection in urological surgery.Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy 07/2013; DOI:10.1007/s10156-013-0631-8 · 1.38 Impact Factor
Article: Newly developed transurethral radiofrequency thermotherapy device for benign prostatic hyperplasia: a pilot study in canine prostate.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The safety and efficacy of transurethral microwave thermo-therapy (TUMT) for the treatment of symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) have been demonstrated in the urological literature. Since a radiofrequency electromagnetic wave has deeper and more even transmission of heat to tissues than a microwave, we have developed a new prototype device for transurethral thermotherapy using a radiofrequency electromagnetic wave. The device consists of a microcomputer-controlled heat generator operating at 8 Mhz, a temperature monitoring system, a urethral cooling system and a urethral applicator and a rectal thermosensor probe. A balloon electrode encased in a specialized Foley catheter is connected parallel to twin plate electrodes on both sides of the pelvic region. An 8-MHz electromagnetic wave is directed to the prostate by means of capacitive coupling. The water coolant continuously perfused through the catheter allows high temperatures within the prostate while preserving the urethral mucosa. Heating experiment using agar phantom showed the hot spots to be distributed at 0.5-3 cm from the catheter surface. Heating experiment using canine prostates demonstrated that an intraprostatic temperature of > 48 degrees C could be achieved while the urethral and rectal temperatures had not exceeded 36 and 40 degrees C respectively. Histological examination immediately after the experiment showed the urethral mucosa to be preserved while coagulation necrosis of the periurethral prostate accompanied with congestion and hemorrhage of small blood vessels were observed at 5-8 mm from the urethra. The bladder and the rectum showed no gross alterations. Histopathological examination 10 days after the experiment revealed the intact urethral mucosa and mild mononuclear infiltration around the destroyed periurethral glands.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)International Journal of Hyperthermia 07/2009; 11(5):627-35.

Article: [Multi-institute survey on actual conditions of urologic management for severe bladder dysfunction after hysterectomy].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We conducted a multi-institute survey on the conditions related to urologic management of severe voiding dysfunction after hysterectomy for uterine cancer with or without postoperative irradiation. Our first study population was a group of adult female patients currently managed by urologists, using clean intermittent catheterization (CIC). Of the 287 patients in this group, 99 (34%) had suffered from uterine cancer. Of these patients, 94 underwent hysterectomy for this disease; 44 and 30 were treated with or without postoperative radiation, respectively, while postoperative irradiation status was unknown for 20. Median follow-up after surgery was 21 (0.2-52) years and median interval from operation to the introduction of CIC was 4.0 (0-49) years. CIC tended to be introduced later for patients with postoperative radiation than those without it. Seventy-four patients, who required invasive urologic interventions other than CIC for voiding dysfunction after hysterectomy, are the second study population. Most of these (82%) had received postoperative irradiation. Continuous Foley catheter placement was the most frequent procedure. Long-term follow-up and urologic management for voiding dysfunction is required for patients undergoing hysterectomy.Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica 06/2008; 54(6):401-5.
Article: [A multi-center prospective study for antibiotic prophylaxis to prevent perioperative infections in urologic surgery].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In order to assess the ability of our protocol for antibiotic prophylaxis to prevent perioperative infections in urologic surgery, 1,353 operations of open and laparoscopic urologic surgery conducted in 21 hospitals between September 2002 and August 2003 were subjected to analyses. We classified surgical procedures into four categories by invasiveness and contamination levels: Category A; clean less invasive surgery, Category B; clean invasive or clean-contaminated surgery, Category C; surgery with urinary tract diversion using the intestine. Prophylactic antibiotics were administrated intravenously according to our protocol, such as Category A; first or second generation cephems or penicillins on the operative day only, Category B; first and second generation cephems or penicillins for 3 days, and Category C; first, second or third generation cephems or penicillins for 4 days. The wound conditions and general conditions were evaluated in terms of the surgical site infection (SSI) as well as remote infection (RI) up to postoperative day (POD) 30. The SSI rate highest (23.3%) for surgery with intestinal urinary diversion, followed by 10.0% for surgery for lower urinary tract, 8.9% for nephroureterctomy, and 6.0% for radical prostatectomy. The SSI rates in clean surgery including open and laparoscopic nephrectomy/adrenalectomy were 0.7 and 1.4%, respectively. In SSIs, gram-positive cocci such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (58.8%) or Enterobacter faecalis (26.5%) were the most common pathogen. Similarly, the RI rate was the highest (35.2%) for surgery using intestinal urinary diversion, followed by 16.7% for surgery for lower urinary tract, 11.4% for nephroureterctomy, and 7.6% for radical prostatectomy, while RI rates for clean surgery were less than 5%. RIs most frequently reported were urinary tract infections (2.6%) where Pseudomonas aeruginosa (20.3%) and Enterobacter faecalis (15.3%) were the major causative microorganisms. Parameters such as age, obesity, nutritional status (low proteinemia), diabetes mellitus, lung disease, duration of operation, and blood loss volume were recognized as risk factors for SSI or RI in several operative procedures. Postoperative body temperatures, peripheral white blood counts, C reactive protein (CRP) levels in POD 3 were much higher than those in POD 2 in cases suffering from perioperative infections, especially suggesting that CRP could be a predictable marker for perioperative infections.Hinyokika kiyo.

ABSTRACT: We report a case of renal artery aneurysm ruptured during pregnancy. A 32-year-old woman presented at 38th week of gestation with left flank pain. We performed a cesarean delivery for fetal distress, and found retroperitoneal hemorrhage. After delivery, she entered a pre-shock state, and abdominal computed tomography and angiography showed a left renal artery aneurysm and hemorrhage from the aneurysm. Left nephrectomy was performed, and both mother and baby were rescued. Renal artery rupture during pregnancy is a fatal event, but with quick diagnosis and adequate treatment, if possible nephron sparing surgery, most patients, including babies, can be rescued.Hinyokika kiyo.

ABSTRACT: We present our clinical findings of laparoscopic nephropexy performed on a 32-year-old woman with symptomatic nephroptosis. Supine and erect excretory urography (DIP) revealed right renal descent of 2.5 vertebral bodies with hydronephrosis. Laparoscopic transperitoneal nephropexy was performed using nonabsorbable sutures, polyglactin net, hernial staplers and tissue adhesive. An upright DIP 1 month postoperatively revealed renal descent of only 1 vertebral body and no hydronephrosis. One year postoperatively, the patient is asymptomatic. A laparoscopic procedure, which is safe, effective and causes minimal morbidity, represents an excellent approach for repair of symptomatic nephroptosis.Hinyokika kiyo.

ABSTRACT: A case of granulomatous nephritis after intrarenal bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy is reported. High fever greater than 38.5 degrees C lasted for 1 month, without response to conservative therapy. Standard nephroureterectomy was subsequently carried out. Histopathologic findings from the surgical specimen were compatible with BCG-induced granulomatous nephritis. The use of a syringe pump for retrograde instillation of BCG was thought to be the major cause of this severe complication.Urology 07/1999; 53(6):1228.

ABSTRACT: We report a case of bilateral breast metastases from prostatic carcinoma. A 49-year-old man with stage D2 prostate cancer, who had been treated by chemoendocrine therapy and radiotherapy for 2 years, complained of bilateral enlarged breasts. Oral administration of diethylstilbestrol diphosphate was started 2 months before the onset of this symptom. A firm mass that was not tender was palpable beneath the skin without fixation on each side. A needle biopsy of the masses showed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with positive immunohistopathological staining for prostate-specific antigen. The masses were diagnosed as metastatic adenocarcinoma of prostate gland origin. The patient died 3 months after the diagnosis of breast metastases. Autopsy revealed diffuse lymphogenous metastatic disease. Metastatic prostatic carcinoma to the breast is uncommon. Breast metastases in this patient might be associated with diffuse lymphogenous metastases as well as increased local blood and lymphatic supply caused by extrinsic estrogens.Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica 05/1999; 45(4):269-71.
Article: Increasing the thermal dose in transurethral microwave thermotherapy produces no improvement in therapeutic efficacy.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Transurethral microwave thermotherapy (TUMT) is a minimally invasive treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It has been reported that increased thermal dose and higher intraprostatic temperatures resulted in improved clinical response. Recently we treated BPH patients with the prostatron device using a new version of software (Prostasoft 2.5), which was intended to increase thermal delivery by allowing maximum power up to 70W. The safety and clinical results were compared between the patients treated with Prostasoft 2.5 and those treated with the currently available software (Prostasoft 2; maximum power up to 50W). A total of 105 patients were treated successively with two treatment protocols. Sixty-three patients were treated with Prostasoft 2 between September 1992 and July 1993, while 42 were treated with Prostasoft 2.5 between August 1993 and April 1994. Therefore, this investigation was a retrospective nonrandomized study. There was no significant difference in the baseline patient characteristics between the two groups. Total thermal dose delivered to the prostate was significantly higher in the Prostasoft 2.5 group than that in the Prostasoft 2 group (137 kJ versus 116 kJ, P < 0.05). No serious complications were encountered in either group. Six months after TUMT, in both the Prostasoft 2.5 and Prostasoft 2 groups there was an improvement in patient condition as measured by the mean I-PSS, QOL, and peak flow rate values, as well as the overall therapeutic efficacy. The two groups differed in the amount of posttreatment improvement from between 8% and 22%, but this difference was not statistically significant. Our study suggests that higher thermal dose attained by Prostasoft 2.5 does not necessarily result in more pronounced clinical improvement, although clinical response to TUMT has often been reported to be dependent upon thermal dose.International Journal of Urology 07/1995; 2(3):186-90.

Article: [A case of granulomatous orchitis].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A 69-year-old man complained of a painless left scrotal swelling. The scrotal mass was enlarged to a hen's egg size with a smooth surface. The scrotal ultrasonogram showed diffuse hypoechogenicity. A testicular tumor was suspected and left high orchiectomy was performed. Histopathological diagnosis was granulomatous orchitis.Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica 05/1995; 41(4):309-11.
Article: Transurethral microwave thermotherapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia: clinical results after a 1-year follow-up.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Since September 1992, 63 patients with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) have been treated with transurethral microwave thermotherapy (TUMT) using the Prostatron device. The International Prostate Symptom Score (I-PSS) and quality of life (QOL) score were used to evaluate subjective symptoms. The mean I-PSS (total, irritative and obstructive scores) and QOL scores had decreased by 40, 38, 45 and 40%, respectively, at 12 months (p < 0.0001). While the mean peak flow rate had increased by 72% (p < 0.001). The clinical efficacy at 12 months was 42%, using a modification of the response criteria proposed at the 2nd International Consultation on Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia. There were no significant differences in the baseline and treatment parameters between those who responded favorably to TUMT and those who did not. The total thermal dose delivered to the prostate did not predict clinical response. However, there was a positive correlation between I-PSS or QOL at baseline and % reduction at 3, 6 and 12 months, and a negative correlation between peak flow rate at baseline and % increase at 3 and 6 months. There were no major complications associated with TUMT during the follow-up period. In summary, our 1-year clinical results are compatible with previous reports, suggesting that TUMT is a safe, effective and lasting non-surgical treatment for BPH. However, evaluation of efficacy should be based on uniform criteria to facilitate comparisons of different clinical trials. The most suitable patient profiles for TUMT could not be identified by retrospective analysis.International Journal of Urology 04/1995; 2(1):24-8.

Article: Transurethral microwave thermotherapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia: patient characteristics in good and poor responders.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Transurethral microwave thermotherapy (TUMT) has been shown to produce a clinical benefit in patients with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia. In order to identify the features of the ideal candidate, a retrospective analysis was conducted in 32 patients who were followed for 2 mo or more. Good responders (GR) were defined as having their Siroky peak flow rate (PFR) standard deviation (SD) increase by < 0.5 or a decrease in the International Prostatic Symptom Score (I-PSS) of > 10 (22 patients). Poor responders (PR) were defined as having their PFR SD increase by < or = 0.5 and their I-PSS decrease by < or = 10 (10 patients). The prostate volume, pre-TUMT I-PSS and intravesical opening pressure were significantly greater in the GR group, while there were no significant differences between the 2 groups for the other baseline patient characteristics: age, prostate length, PFR, PFR SD, post-voiding residual volume and quality of life. Concerning the operational parameters, significantly more total energy was delivered to the prostate in the GR group (mean 131 kJ) than in the PR group (mean 101 kJ). Moreover, the 7 patients with anti-androgen therapy pre-TUMT received less total energy and 5 of the 7 were poor responders. These results suggest that patients with apparent obstructive symptoms and with moderate enlargement of prostate could benefit more from this less invasive therapy. Clinical response seems to be dose-dependent and patients with a history of recent anti-androgen treatment may have a less favorable response.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)International Journal of Urology 10/1994; 1(3):252-5.

Article: [Transurethral microwave thermotherapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia: clinical evaluation with International Prostate Symptom Score (I-PSS)].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Forty patients with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia were treated with a single session of transurethral microwave thermotherapy (TUMT) using a Prostatron. The clinical effectiveness was evaluated by analyzing the subjective and objective responses following the treatment. The International Prostate Symptom Score (I-PSS) and quality of life (QOL) scale were used to evaluate the subjective symptoms. At three months after treatment, significant improvements in I-PSS (p < 0.0001). QOL (P < 0.0001), and peak flow rate (Qmax) (p < 0.05) were observed. Improvement of both I-PSS and Qmax was found in 90% (18/20) of the patients at 2 months. Although 15 patients noted transient urinary retention and 15 patients had mild to moderate macroscopic hematuria immediately after TUMT, no severe adverse effects occurred during the follow-up period. A significant correlation was found between I-PSS improvement and the total thermal dose delivered. However, the thermal dose could not be predicted in each case. The preliminary findings suggest that TUMT by Prostatron is safe and effective as a nonsurgical treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia. The clinical response seems to be thermal dose dependent. I-PSS is clinically sensitive and is useful in practice.Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica 11/1993; 39(11):1003-9.

ABSTRACT: We report three cases of renal or perirenal malignant lymphoma. The patients were a 69-year-old woman presenting with lumbago, a 43-year-old man with fever and erythema, and a 69-year-old woman with general malaise. In each case, renal or perirenal tumor was discovered by abdominal ultrasound. Biopsy and microscopic examination revealed the diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma. The computerized tomography patterns of the cases were different from each other; "direct invasion" in the first case, "solitary nodule" in the second case, and "engulfment" in the third case. Chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy were performed. Only the third case is still alive at present. The computerized tomography pattern of renal or perirenal malignant lymphoma was classified into five groups; I) multiple nodules, II) solitary nodule, III) engulfment, IV) direct invasion, V) diffuse infiltration. This classification should be useful in making an accurate and early diagnosis.Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica 10/1993; 39(9):831-6.
Article: Use of a new hypersensitive assay for the detection of prostate specific antigen in prostate cancer.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We have developed a new hypersensitive enzyme immunoassay for prostate specific antigen (PSA) based on the (MARKIT-M PA) assay but employing a two-hour incubation of the primary monoclonal antibody. The analytical sensitivity has been determined at 0.2 ng/ml, calculated as the mean+three standard deviations of the zero calibrator. Serum PSA was measured at least one month after radical prostatectomy (nine patients) or cystoprostatectomy (six patients). Based on the PSA levels of these patients, the recommended PSA cut-off level indicative of residual disease after radical prostatectomy was 0.4 ng/ml. Increasing (> 0.4 ng/ml) PSA levels preceded recurrence by eight months in a patient who developed bone metastasis after radical prostatectomy. In two patients treated with endocrine therapy, increasing PSA levels also preceded clinical evidence of progression by between eight and nine months. The study suggests that the newly developed sensitive PSA assay allows for the identification of patients with disease progression and the early commencement of adjuvant treatment.Japanese Journal of Clinical Oncology 04/1993; 23(2):110-5. · 1.75 Impact Factor
Article: [An experience with augmentation sigmoid cystoplasty for urinary incontinence caused by sacral agenesis: a case report].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Sacral agenesis is an uncommon disease. About 50 cases have been reported in Japan since 1929. Neurogenic bladder is often accompanied with the disease. The patient was a 26-year-old man who had suffered from persistent urinary incontinence since his childhood. Kidney-ureter-bladder (KUB) revealed Type IV sacral agenesis according to the classification by Renshaw. The upper urinary tract remained normal. Urodynamics study showed a low compliance bladder with low urethral pressure. Pharmacotherapy failed to improve his continence. Augmentation sigmoid-cystoplasty was undertaken to enlarge vesical capacity and it has successfully overcome his urinary incontinence. Clinical aspects of sacral agenesis are discussed focusing on urological problems.Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica 11/1992; 38(10):1179-82.
Article: [Value of prostate-specific antigen measurements with newly developed enzyme immunoassay (MARKIT-M PA)].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in patients with prostate cancer and benign prostate hypertrophy (BPH) were investigated with a newly developed enzyme immunoassay (MARKIT-M PA, Dainippon Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., Osaka, Japan). Sensitivity of the assay system is 0.5 ng/ml and the detection range is 0.5-100 ng/ml. There was a high linear correlation (r = 0.987) between the assay and MARKIT-F PA, and values obtained with the assay were almost equal to those yielded by MARKIT-F PA assay. Using the BPH group as a negative control, the upper cut-off value in BPH patients was determined to be 3.6 ng/ml. Of the 48 patients with untreated prostate cancer, 77% was detectable by means of MARKIT-M PA assay. Using the BPH group as a negative control, specificity and efficiency were 93% and 86%, respectively. In another group of 27 BPH patients whose blood samples were taken immediately after digital prostatic examination, PSA was elevated in 15%. During follow-up of prostate cancer patients, PSA was elevated in 82% at the time of clinically detectable progression. In 15 patients whose disease was clinically well controlled, all levels of PSA were observed to be negative. These findings suggests that detection of serum PSA with this assay is of great use both in the diagnosis and monitoring of prostate cancer patients.Hinyokika kiyo.

ABSTRACT: Two cases of adrenal cysts are reported. The first case is of a left adrenal cyst in a 19-year-old woman and was incidentally discovered by computed tomography (CT). Its margin was clear, its contents was homogeneous and its signal indicated water contents on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It was punctured and is now followed up by CT. The second case is of a left adrenal cyst in a 62-year-old woman, which also happened to be discovered by CT. Its contents was heterogeneous by MRI. It was removed and proved to be a lymphangiomatous cyst. The conclusion is that MRI will be useful in the differential diagnosis of adrenal cysts.Hinyokika kiyo.

ABSTRACT: Retroperitoneal neurilemmomas are rare tumors. They are usually asymptomatic, and often become quite large before they are discovered. A case is reported of a 75-year-old man with complaints of general malaise and left lumbar pain. Intravenous pyelography showed left renal nonfunctional and retrograde pyelography revealed the stenosis of the left ureter. The ultrasonogram demonstrated a cystic mass, and it was diagnosed as a retroperitoneal tumor with central necrosis by computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The tumor was removed with the left nonfunctioning kidney and ureter. The tumor was 3 x 3 x 4 cm, and the histological diagnosis was neurilemmoma (Antoni A + B type). There was a tight fibrous adhesion between the tumor and the left ureter, and the tumor was concluded to have originated from the adventitia of ureter. To date, 120 benign cases have been reported in Japan. They are reviewed and discussed.Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica 04/1988; 34(3):502-7.
