Chinese Urologists' Practice Patterns Of Diagnosing And Treating Chronic Prostatitis: A Questionnaire Survey

�UroToday.com - Chronic prostatitis (CP) is one of the well-nigh prevalent conditions in urogenital medicine, and represents an important international health problem. Throughout the past century, the diagnostic entity of CP has been recognized and its clinical characteristics well described. However, despite the multiple approaches to direction of CP, no hard and fast guidelines have been developed. To date, several surveys of urologists have been undertaken in order to examine their attitudes, nosology and treatment modalities applied in patients with CP. Yet Chinese circumstances encompassing CP get not been clarified. In order to define the current spectrum of practice of Chinese urologists, we initiated a comprehensive cross-sectional study to determine the current situation among Chinese urologists with regard to diagnosis and treatment of patients with CP.


We conducted this survey during the menstruation of the 13th China National Urology Academic Conference and the 8th Global Chinese Urology Academic Conference (CUA 2006), which was held in Shenyang, Liaoning Province on October 13-15, 2006. A sample of 656 Chinese urologists attention the CUA 2006 coming together was surveyed using a questionnaire that explored attitudes and diagnostic and intervention patterns in the management of CP.


The results provide a picture of current practices regarding the management of CP in China and some interesting findings were demonstrated in our study. More than one-third of urologists were not familiar with the new classification proposed in 1995 in the USA by the NIH (National Institutes of Heath) designed to remove this disease from the strict linguistic context of the prostate, placing greater accent on the concept of pain and introducing the concept of male inveterate pelvic pain syndrome. A minority of urologists performed the Meares-Stamey 4-glass test, also known as a quantitative prostatic localization study. Although most Chinese urologists considered CP to be non-bacterial in nature, many (74.0%) still chose antibiotics as the low gear choice of therapy. Most urologists said they would prescribe antibiotics when bacterial culture was positive (64.4%) or excessive leukocytes and/or pyocytes were submit in EPS (65.9%). The second gear most usually used pharmaceutical therapy was alpha-blockers (60.3%). Interestingly, most urologists (70.3%) use alpha-blockers just to relieve impeding voiding symptoms. The well-nigh commonly used non-pharmacological therapy was psychotherapy (60.7%) and prostatic massage (54.2%). The beliefs regarding the etiology affect the diagnostic and treatment strategies; meanwhile, the diagnostic practice has an influence on the selection of handling methods. Our findings besides suggest that the personal beliefs or attitudes towards CP, and the practice characteristics of individual urologists might experience an influence on the patterns of routine treatments for cases of CP.1


This is the first countrywide survey of clinical practice patterns for CP among urologists in China. Wide variations in physicians' understanding and clinical practice ar demonstrated in this study. As seen in other countries, in that location is much confusion and frustration experient by Chinese urologists in the management of CP. This reflects the inability to name the causa of evacuation symptoms in many of patients with CP and has likely led to the varied therapies that are used. It is necessary to improve their cognitive storey about CP and standardize their pattern patterns. Moreover, many hypotheses of etiology and mechanisms of pathogenesis of CP have been proposed and a wide scope of evaluations for diagnosis and treatment methods for CP have been recommended. In this situation, the scene of "evidence-based" medicine is very important in clinical practice of CP.


Admittedly, this study has some limitations. Firstly, the physicians' responses

James McAvoy: 'Getting Beaten Up By Angelina Jolie Was Satisfying'

James McAvoy has revealed that he “got a lot of satisfaction” from being on the receiving end of Angelina Jolie's punches while filming new movie Wanted.

But that's not to say that his male pride didn't also take a beating.

“I don’t think in that scene my character threw a punch in the script,” the actor tells Entertainmentwise.

“Then in the film the character [of Wesley] says ‘I’m going to kick your effing ass!’ and swings for her. That was completely added because I felt completely undermined as a man, and thought I should try.
"But I completely fail to do that and she ends up beating me even more!”

Despite his failed attempts to regain some on-screen dignity, sparing with the gorgeous Jolie wasn't all about his bruised ego.

“Swinging punches is fine, but for some reason the best part of a fight scene for an actor is taking a hit and making it believable, so I got a lot of satisfaction from that,” he adds.

THISDAY'S 'Africa Rising' Festival Makes U.S. Debut at Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Friday, August 1, to Raise Awareness for African Issues

Star-Studded Music and Fashion Event to Feature Recording Artist Seal,
Model Tyson Beckford and More

WASHINGTON, June 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A popular international
music and fashion festival designed to showcase the positive elements and
major improvements across the African continent will make its U.S. debut
later this summer.

THISDAY, Africa's leading daily newspaper and multi-media resource, has
boldly revolutionized the means through which awareness for African issues
is generated through the creation of its third annual star-studded music
and fashion event. Themed "Africa Rising," this year's festival will focus
on finding "sustainable solutions" rather than simply identifying the
"problems" facing Africa. Following the overwhelming success of the
festival - which performed in Africa over the past two years and is making
its UK debut this year - Nigerian media mogul Nduka Obaigbena has now
exported his brainchild event across the Atlantic. On The heels of two July
events in Nigeria, the U.S. show will unfold on Friday, August 1 at the
Kennedy Center For The Performing Arts in downtown Washington, DC. With a
star-studded lineup of performing artists and stars, this world-class
festival is designed to communicate positive images of Africa by showcasing
the renaissance of Africa's music, fashion and the arts. The continent's
culture will be on full display as patrons will live the true African
experience.

Confirmed headliners for the Kennedy Center event include Grammy Award
winning recording artist Seal along with American supermodel Tyson
Beckford. Additional A-list performers will be announced shortly for the
only North American stop in the series.

Other scheduled 2008 festival stops include Abuja, Nigeria (THISDAY
Dome, July 11th), Lagos, Nigeria (THISDAY Center, July 13th) and London
(Royal Albert Hall October 14th). Featured artists at this year's events
will include Jay-Z, Usher, Mary J. Blige, Chris Brown, Rihanna, Fat Joe,
Naomi Campbell, Oluchi, Tyson Beckford, Youssou N'Dour, Liya Kebede, Alek
Wek, Ozwald Boateng, Chris Aire, 9ICE and Shank. Previous THISDAY events in
2006 and 2007 featured such performers as Lionel Richie, King Sunny Ade,
Diana Ross, Beyonce, Asa, Alicia Keys, P Diddy, Shakira, D'Banj, Snoop
Dogg, 2Face, John Legend, Missy Elliot, Ne-yo, Busta Rhymes, Ciara and
Kelly Rowland.

"Right now the international community seems to be dealing with the
symptoms not the problems of Africa," says Obaigbena. "The symptoms are
poverty and disease, but the problem is lack of social and physical
infrastructure. This initiative is to highlight the need to focus
sustainable solutions on the problems through massive investment in
infrastructure and microfinance in order to rebuild Africa from the ground
up. Europe is what it is today because after World War II the 'Marshall
Plan' took hold. It did not deal with poverty, it focused on rebuilding
Europe."

About "Africa Rising"

"Africa Rising" was first launched in 2006 under the direction of
THISDAY's Editor-in-Chief, Nduka Obaigbena. Its mission is not only to
reflect the culture and positive attributes of Africa's social, political
and economic progress, but also to reach out to the continent's diverse
population as well as the Diaspora and International communities.

About THISDAY

Leader's & Company Limited began trading in January 1995. Its flagship
newspaper, THISDAY, was first published on January 22, 1995. Despite
entering a crowded newspaper market, which was then home to more than 25
serious national dailies, 10 national news magazines and several
periodicals, THISDAY quickly established itself as Nigeria's premier
newspaper of record. In its first year of publication, it won the
prestigious Newspaper of the Year award, which it retained for three
consecutive years. Its editors and writers have also won several national
and international awards for news coverage, presentation and robust
commentary. Ever since its inception in 1995, THISDAY has fiercely guarded
the values of free enterprise, anchored on social justice and democracy.

Today, THISDAY has some 700 staff members in 38 offices across Nigeria.
It also maintains a bureau in Washington DC, from which it provides news on
Africa to a variety of global news organisations and agencies across all
platforms -- from online to broadcast. In Nigeria, THISDAY has a readership

Former Bush guitarist shepherding young band

LONDON (Billboard) - Former Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale is
not the only veteran of the British rock band with new product
on the racks.


Bush lead guitarist Nigel Pulsford, who exited in 2002, is
back as producer, arranger and occasional guitarist for U.K.
alt-rock outfit Furlined. The band issued its debut album,
"Love Comes in Canisters," in the U.K. in April, and is now
playing British clubs.


Bristol-based Furlined was formed by Pulsford's longtime
friend, singer/songwriter Neil Crossley, and classically
trained cellist Tegan Thomas in 2004, subsequently adding
bassist Graham Dalzell and drummer Greg White.


Despite having a producer whose band's U.S. sales are close
to 11 million albums, Crossley found record company interest
hard to attract. "I did approach a couple," he says, "but the
people I contacted were so negative." As a result he set up his
own label, Concave, and is also handling the band's management
and booking.


"To give yourself a chance in this business, you need to be
obsessive," Pulsford says. "When we started Bush, Gavin and I
worked so hard -- that's what Neil's had to do too."


Rossdale, meanwhile, released his debut solo album
"Wanderlust" last week.

Shania Twain - Shania Tells Fans She Needs To Heal Broken Heart

Shania Twain has told her fans she needs time to mend her "broken heart" after her marriage to producer husband Robert 'Mutt' Lange ended.

The Man! I Feel Like A Woman star and her legendary producer husband were married in 1993, only six months after first meeting and are parents to Eja D'Angelo, their six-year-old son.

But a statement issued to People magazine confirmed they were to split, with subsequent rumours suggesting that Lange had been involved in an affair with Marie-Anne Thiebaud, a friend of Twain's, though these reports have been denied by both parties.

In a posting on her website, the country megastar has opened up about the pain of the split.

"As I am sure you have seen or heard; I am going through a rough time personally in my life," she wrote.

"I wanted you all to know that I could not be getting through this without you. Your letters, emails and words of encouragement give me strength."

She also thanked fans for their support which "reminds me to smile, no matter how deep the pain and to always be grateful for all the beautiful blessings in my life".

Twain, 42, achieved the third biggest-selling album ever with her 1997 effort Come On Over - produced by her husband - and is the only female artists to have three albums with sales of more than ten million copies, according to the Recording Industry Association of America.

Lange, 17 years Twain's senior, is one of the most successful rock music producers of all time, having worked with artists such as the Cars, Foreigner, Def Leppard and AC/DC, for whom he produced Back in Black, the fifth biggest-selling album of all time.

"I have so much to say but I know the best way for me to speak is through my music," she continued in her web posting.

"This is my therapy, my passion, and my love. I look forward to sharing it with all of you as I begin this new journey.

"I need some time to heal this broken heart but make no mistake; I will be back and hopefully stronger than ever. Thank you my friends, from the bottom of my heart."

Harmonica University Opens Its Doors to English-Speaking Students

A big hit in China, this online harmonica instruction program now gives
emerging musicians worldwide a new way to learn

SYDNEY, Australia, June 3 -- When Tony Eyers, Ph.D. was
teaching at China's Zhengzhou University two years ago, he noticed a
serious problem: There was a major lack of music teaching resources but a
substantial market for learning. Motivated to fill the void, the
world-renowned harmonica player and instructor teamed up with a colleague
to translate harmonica lessons, music and information to the Mandarin
language.

With that material, Eyers created an online music instruction program
called Harmonica University. Today, the course serves 17,000 Chinese
members and has been such a hit that Eyers just launched "Harmonica
University" in English. Now open for enrollment, Harmonica University
(http://www.harmonicauniversity.com) offers beginner, intermediate and
advanced harmonica instruction with its freshman- through senior-level
courses.

"It's blown me away just how successful the Chinese version of
Harmonica University has been, and I'm thrilled to debut this concept in
English," Eyers says. "Considering that much of the world has Internet
access and speaks English, Harmonica University fills the gap for a
comprehensive online harmonica course in this language. It's now available
to virtually everyone, no matter a person's interest or skill level."

Structured like a four-year college, Harmonica University offers online
enrollment, an 81-lesson program, and an online graduation exam that's
challenging even for expert musicians. It's also unique in that it allows
students to learn at their pace and study the music of their choosing.
While many harmonica courses are limited to learning through blues music
only, Harmonica University offers instruction and practicing opportunities
in many genres -- everything from bluegrass to hip hop. Also, each course
offers strength-building exercises, much like weight training at a gym.
What's more, Harmonica University has online high-tech audio players with a
"hear it, then play it" approach and features 1,000+ audio tracks.

"With its cutting-edge technology, user-friendly experience and diverse
coursework, Harmonica University is attractive to people of all ages, types
and learning styles," Eyers says. "You can even 'play' with bands before
doing so in real life, thanks to special backing tracks that simulate
playing alongside others."

Enrolled members receive a free download of the Tony Eyers CD, "Black
Mountain Harmonica." For more information, visit
http://www.harmonicauniversity.com.

About Harmonica University

instructor and world-renowned musician, Harmonica University was founded in
China, where Eyers successfully launched a Mandarin-language version of his
online program. With an electronics undergraduate degree from Yale
University, an education diploma, a telecommunications-engineering
doctorate, and an extensive background in harmonica playing and
instruction, Eyers has applied his expert skills to create Harmonica

The Game Drops New Album LAX July 22

Featuring: Lil' Wayne, Kanye West, Common, Ne-Yo, Ludacris, Ice Cube

SANTA MONICA, Calif., June 16 -- Platinum-selling rapper
and West Coast champion The Game is set to release his third major-label
album LAX on July 22nd on Geffen Records. The first single "Game's Pain"
featuring Keyshia Cole has already stormed the charts; the video directed
by Rage reached #1 on BET's 106 & Park countdown. "Game's Pain" is the
artist at his observant, insightful best: surveying hip-hop's landscape
from his lyrical peak. Keyshia Cole's uplifting vocals soar over production
fire from Knobody and Dahoud.

The Game returns to the cracked pavement, the album's street single,
"Dope Boys," with Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker showing off his own trap
work on the track. The song is produced by rising L.A. stars 1500 or
Nothin'. An accompanying video is in the works.

Elsewhere, LAX shows off The Game's best talents. Lil' Wayne checks in
on "My Life," produced by Cool & Dre. Chicago stands up on "Angel" with
Kanye West at the helm and Common on the mic. Meanwhile, Ne-Yo blesses a
pair of songs: "Camera Phone" also from Cool & Dre, as well as J.R. Rotem's
"A Thug and a Gentleman." Scott Storch cooks up two summer sizzlers: "Let
Us Live" featuring Chrissette Michelle and "Put Ya Hands Up" with Busta
Rhymes.

Hip-hop greats Ice Cube -- "State of Emergency" by J.R.Rotem -- and
Raekwon -- Jellyroll's "Bulletproof Diaries" -- likewise weigh in. R&B is
equally well represented: Bilal on "Cali Sunshine," produced by Nottz, and
Raheem DeVaughn on "Touchdown." Nottz also lays the licks for loudmouth
Ludacris on the appropriately titled "Ya Heard." Other songs of note
include "Nice" by Irv Gotti, "House of Pain" by anthemic Atlantan DJ Toomp,
and "Letter to the King" produced by Hi-Tek.

Quite a mouthful. But that's the Game's specialty: giving the audience
more than it can possibly handle. Come July 22, LAX is set to raise the
bar. Again. The Game is most definitely on.

Oasis confirm new album release

Oasis have confirmed that their new album will be out in the autumn.

Although no official date has been set for the release Noel Gallagher told Russell Brand's Radio 2 show that the band will be releasing their as-yet-untitled-album in September.

The Oasis guitarist refused to be drawn on the exact date, claiming "his manager" would tell him off for messing up the launch by letting the date just slip out.

As previously reported on NME.COM three songs reportedly from the new album were leaked online.

Links to downloads of 'I Wanna Live A Dream (In My Record Machine)', 'Nothin On Me' and Stop The Clocks appeared on messageboards, fansites and YouTube earlier this month.
