Risk Factors for Chronic Prostatitis in Northwest China
Treatments studied
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks for risk factors in men from Northwest China with long-term pelvic or perineal pain (chronic prostatitis) compared to healthy volunteers.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have ongoing discomfort or pain in your pelvic area or perineum (the area between your scrotum and anus).
- These symptoms have lasted for at least 3 months.
- You rate your prostatitis-related pain as moderate to severe (a score of 4 or higher on the NIH-CPSI scale).
- You do not have prostate cancer.
- You do not have an enlarged prostate that prevents you from emptying your bladder completely (more than 50 ml left after urination).
- You do not have an acute urinary tract infection.

This trial tests if pelvic floor muscle training can reduce chronic pelvic pain in men. It also looks at how well patient-reported symptoms match physical exam findings.
This study is testing if the type of pain you feel can help predict which treatments work best for interstitial cystitis (a condition that causes bladder pain and pressure). It may help match you with more effective care.
This study looks for genetic (inherited) factors behind chronic pelvic pain and related urinary and sexual symptoms. You may be able to help researchers by providing a few samples and answering short questions, which could improve understanding of these conditions.
This trial tests if a non-invasive nerve stimulation device (TaVNS) can reduce pain, urinary symptoms, and mood issues in men with moderate to severe chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS). It may offer a new drug-free option for symptom relief.
This study compares three treatments for long-term pelvic pain from chronic prostatitis: sound wave therapy (ESWT), a plant-based therapy (phytotherapy), or both together. It aims to find which works best for ongoing pain without a bacterial infection.
This study looks at women’s chronic pelvic pain that comes with other common pain conditions. It may help researchers understand what supports pelvic and pelvic-floor health when pain has lasted for months.
