    Abstract Introduction: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a group of chemicals that can induce oxidative stress and related cytotoxicity. Whether urinary concentrations of PAHs have effects on overactive bladder (OAB) in the general population is still unclear. This study investigated the associations between urinary PAHs and OAB.
    Methods: 7,146 adults aged over 20 who participated in the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2016 were studied. The impact of the six PAHs on OAB was evaluated by multivariate logistic regression, and percent changes related to different quartiles of those six PAH levels were calculated. Confounders including age, logarithmic urinary creatinine, gender, race, body mass index, educational level, marriage, poverty income ratio, diabetes, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome were controlled.
    Results: There is a significant positive correlation between urinary concentrations of the six PAHs we include in the study and the occurrence of OAB. Furthermore, individuals with higher PAH levels also reported a more severe OAB symptom score (OABSS).
    Conclusions: Our findings revealed that adult men in the USA with higher urinary PAHs had a higher risk of OAB incidence. These findings suggest the importance of strong environmental regulation of PAHs to protect population health. However, the underlying mechanisms still need further exploration.

    Abstract Background: Current research is starting to focus on the medical value of marijuana and the possible health problems it can cause. Previous studies have shown that marijuana can relieve lower urinary tract symptoms, which can pose a significant public health burden. In this study, we assessed the association between regular marijuana use and overactive bladder as part of low urinary tract symptoms.
    Methods: Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2018 were obtained for analysis. The Overactive Bladder Symptom Score scale was used to define the presence of overactive bladder for each participant. Multivariate logistic regression and ordinal logistic regression were used to analyze the association of marijuana use with the onset and severity of overactive bladder, respectively.
    Results: We found that approximately 24% of the US population reported regular marijuana use. Compared with nonregular users, regular marijuana users were younger, thinner, more likely to be male, smokers, low-income, less educated, unmarried, and non-Hispanic White/Black. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that marijuana exposure may be an independent risk factor for overactive bladder (odds ratio 1.39; 95% confidence interval, 1.16-1.66). Ordinal logistic regression results showed that marijuana exposure was associated with the severity of overactive bladder (odds ratio 1.45; 95% confidence interval, 1.30-1.60). Moreover, all frequencies of regular use showed almost consistent effects on the onset and severity of overactive bladder.
    Conclusion: Regular marijuana use may increase the risk of overactive bladder. Our data do not support the evidence for the use of cannabinoids in the medical treatment of patients with overactive bladder, especially given the thorny health problems caused by marijuana.

    Abstract It has been demonstrated that benzophenone-3 is one of the endocrine-disrupting compounds which are considered as potential risk factors of adverse health effects. However, whether benzophenone-3 exposure can influence the sex steroid hormones levels remains unknown. We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, which is a cross-sectional dataset, from 2013 to 2016. A total of 1690 male US participants aged 18 or above were included. Urinary benzophenone-3, serum total testosterone, serum estradiol, serum sex hormone-binding globulin were measured. Confounders including age, body mass index, race, education level, urinary creatinine, ratio of family income to poverty, alcohol use, time of venipuncture, cardiac arterial diabetic score, energy intake, bisphenol A, triclosan and total parabens were controlled. After full adjustment (Model III), the upper benzophenone-3 quintiles had odds ratios (95 % confidence intervals) of testosterone deficiency of 1.75 (1.03, 2.99), 2.47 (1.53, 3.98), 2.08 (1.13, 3.84) and 1.74 (0.94, 3.23) compared with quintile 1. Compared with quintile 1, percent changes (95 % confidence intervals) in testosterone were - 12 % (-19 %, -5 %) and - 9 % (-17 %, -1 %) for quintile 3 and quintile 5 in Model III. Estradiol and sex hormone-binding globulin were generally similar to total testosterone in the associations with benzophenone-3. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that adult men in the US with higher urinary benzophenone-3 had a higher risk of testosterone deficiency and had inverse associations with total testosterone, estradiol and sex hormone-binding globulin. To confirm the causal links between benzophenone-3 and sex steroid hormones, prospective studies are needed.
