Abstract:The symptom complex called prostatitis represents a multifactorial problem of unclear etiology. Standardized diagnostic and therapeutic approaches do not exist. Controlled studies which fulfil evidence-based medical criteria are missing. A review of the currently available literature leads to the conclusion that a multimodal therapy concept should be developed and examined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
