This study looks at the natural bacteria in urine and how they relate to chemicals in the blood and urine of healthy women around menopause. It aims to understand the normal range to help future research on urinary health.
This study looks at complicated urinary tract infections (UTIs), which are infections in the urinary system that happen when there is an underlying issue like a urinary catheter, blockage, or other urinary tract problem. The trial aims to gather information to better understand and treat these infections.
This trial compares a longer, higher-dose antibiotic course combined with methenamine hippurate (a urinary antiseptic) against standard care (low-dose antibiotics or methenamine alone) for women with chronic urinary tract infections. It aims to see if the extended treatment is more effective at relieving persistent symptoms.
This study looks at the bacteria living in the vagina, urine tract, and stool to learn why some women get repeated urinary tract infections (UTIs). The results may help doctors better prevent or treat UTIs in the future.
