Children with an overactive bladder generally exhibit frequency, urgency, and urge incontinence. Often, a child will squat to try to prevent urinary incontinence. The bladder in these children is not anatomically and is functionally, smaller than normal and exhibits strong uncontrolled contractions. The aim of this study was to the evaluation of blood pressure (BP) in children with idiopathic overactive bladder syndrome. In this case-control study, we selected 110 children with overactive bladder as cases and 220 children without overactive bladder as controls. Children with overactive bladder and healthy children without overactive bladder were enrolled, and their BP was measured in children. P <0.05 was considered statistically significant in our comparisons. The mean age of the children was 8.8 ± 1.70 and 8.53 ± 2.44 years in overactive bladder and control group, respectively. The mean systolic and diastolic BP were a significant difference between case and control groups (P = 0.001). Systolic and diastolic BP were significantly higher in children with overactive bladder.

Aims The use of non-invasive laboratory tests based on detection of biomarkers in the blood samples is a good strategy for early diagnosis of breast cancer. The lymphocyte radiosensitivity assessment can be a valuable method to diagnose breast cancer. The objective of this study was to investigate the radiosensitivity indices in sporadic breast cancer among Iranian women and to evaluate the potential of those indices for clinical use in early diagnosis of breast cancer and assessing its susceptibility. Materials & Methods The present study is a case-control that was conducted on 32 patients with sporadic breast cancer (patient group) and 30 healthy individuals (control group). The obtained blood samples of both groups were exposed to gamma-irradiation (0.4 Gy) and the level of chromosome breakage was determined based on the G2 chromosome breakage assay protocol. In the metaphase lymphocytes, the percentage of the abnormal cells was calculated as the radiosensitivity index for comparing the two groups. Data were analyzed by SPSS 19 software using student t-test, paired t-test, chi-square and Fisher exact test. Findings There was a significant difference in the percentage of the index of the abnormal cells after irradiation between two groups (p=0.001). The area under the curve (AUC) of the pe...
