Small-Fiber Polyneuropathy Is Prevalent in Patients With Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome.
Urogynecology (Philadelphia, Pa.) ·doi:10.1097/spv.0000000000001240

ImportanceThe pathophysiology of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is imperfectly understood. Recent studies reported that small-fiber polyneuropathy (SFPN) is common in fibromyalgia, a condition commonly comorbid with IC…

Anesthetic Bladder Capacity is a Clinical Biomarker for Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome Subtypes
Urology ·doi:10.1016/j.urology.2021.07.009

OBJECTIVE: To further examine anesthetic bladder capacity as a biomarker for interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) patient subtypes, we evaluated demographic and clinical characteristics in a large and heterogeneous female pa…

Small Fiber Polyneuropathy Is Associated With Non-Bladder-Centric Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome Patients.
Female pelvic medicine & reconstructive surgery ·doi:10.1097/spv.0000000000000972

ObjectivesInterstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) comprises at least 2 phenotypes. Bladder centric patients typically demonstrate low bladder capacity (BC), often with Hunner lesion (HL), whereas non-bladder-centric patients ty…

Non-bladder centric interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome phenotype is significantly associated with co-occurring endometriosis.
The Canadian journal of urology

INTRODUCTION: Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) and endometriosis are coexistent diagnoses in 48%-65% of women with chronic pelvic pain (CPP), suggesting that dual screening may be warranted. To further investigate the cl…

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy as a Complementary Alternative for Chronic Pelvic Pain Management in an Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome Patient.
Case reports in urology ·doi:10.1155/2019/5767568

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome is a chronic pelvic pain condition with no known etiology that affects millions of women and men in the United States. Current management can be aggressive for individuals who are refractory to le…

Small fiber polyneuropathy as a potential therapeutic target in interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome.
International urogynecology journal ·doi:10.1007/s00192-019-04011-x

Introduction and hypothesisInterstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) and fibromyalgia (FM) are frequently co-occurring medical diagnoses in patients referred to the urology clinic for secondary and tertiary treatment options.Meth…

A retrospective claims database analysis to assess patterns of interstitial cystitis diagnosis
Current medical research and opinion ·doi:10.1185/030079906x80431

OBJECTIVE: Interstitial cystitis (IC) is often misdiagnosed as one of several other conditions manifesting similar symptoms. This analysis assesses the potential extent of IC misdiagnosis while considering concomitant conditions in a manage…

Current issues in the diagnosis of painful bladder syndrome/interstitial cystitis.
The Journal of reproductive medicine

PBS/IC, which was traditionally thought to be a rare condition, is increasingly thought to be a frequent cause of CPP. Failure to consider the bladder as a component of this pain is common, primarily because of the similarity in symptoms to…
