    Abstract Abstract Epithelial and endothelial barrier function is typically studied in vitro by growing the cells of interest on permeable supports that are sandwiched between two fluid compartments. This setup mimics the physiological situation with the cell layer as the diffusion barrier at the interface between two chemically distinct fluids. Routinely, the barrier function is quantitatively described by two key parameters: (i) the transepithelial or transendothelial electrical resistance (TER) as a measure of the permeability for small inorganic ions and (ii) the permeability coefficient (PE) as a descriptor of the permeability for molecular tracers. So far the two parameters have been determined in separate experiments. This study introduces a device that allows for simultaneous detection of PE and TER of the very same cell monolayer in one single experiment (PETER-assay). The novel approach is entirely based on AC impedance measurements in two different modes, so that TER and PE become available in real time. The new approach is demonstrated for three epithelial cell lines derived from the kidney (MDCK-I, MDCK-II, NRK) with very different barrier properties under stationary conditions and when challenged by barrier-breaking fungal toxin cytochalasin D. PETER provides an excellent time-resolution and completely automated data collection.

    Abstract Objectives: The aim of the survey was to assess physician's behavior and the global knowledge about patient's preferences and their psychological burden linked to lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in an outpatient setting in Slovakia.
    Methods: The study included 36 outpatient urological clinics. Overall, 1132 newly diagnosed LUTS patients were screened within 1 month. A total of 454 questionnaires were obtained from 459 LUTS patients with risk of progression (RP). Inclusion criteria were: age > 50 years, IPSS > 8, prostate volume ≥ 30 cm3, and PSA ≥ 1.5 to ≤ 10 ng/ml.
    Results: The digital rectal examination, PSA testing, and urinalysis were used in all the centers as first visit examinations. The least frequently performed diagnostic procedure was uroflowmetry (74 %). The physician's preferred therapy for patients with RP was standard combined treatment in (52.6 %); followed by α-blocker alone (45 %) and monotherapy with 5-α-reductase inhibitors (5-ARI) only in 3 % of all asked urologists. Patient's mean age was 63.3 years (SD ±  7.4); baseline PSA value 2.2 ng/ml (SD + 3.2); prostate volume was 38.0 ml (SD ±  16.7 ml); Qmax was 11.5 ml/s (SD ±  4.6); and IPSS score 12.5 (SD ±  6.3). The most bothersome symptoms were nocturia (prevalence of ≥ 75 %), weak urinary stream (61 %), and retarded voiding (43 %). Patient's expectations of treatment were rapid improvement of symptoms (36.0 %), stabilization of symptoms (35.5 %), and reduction of potential risk of surgical intervention (25.8 %).
    Conclusions: Our research reflects the physician's behavior, patient's self-perception of the disease and therapeutic priorities in the current outpatient practice in Slovakia.

    Abstract Background: The aim of the study was to evaluate patients attitudes with benign prostatic hyperplasia at the risk of progression during a 12-month period of observation.
    Materials and methods: A total of 426 patients from 45 outpatients centers were included and prospectively followed. Inclusion criteria were: age > 50 years, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) > 8, prostate volume > 30 cm(3) (transabdominal ultrasound) and PSA > 1.5 to < 10 ng/ml.
    Results: In all, 28.6% patients were naive, 62.9% used monotherapy (alpha-blocker), and 8.5% combined treatment (alpha-blocker/5alpha-reductase inhibitor/dutasteride). The most bothersome symptoms were the weak urine stream (60.8%) and nocturia (59.2%). Patients expectations from the treatment were stabilization of the disease and reducing the risk of surgery rather than rapid resolution of symptoms. Despite the presence of symptoms, 2.3% patients claimed that benign prostatic hyperplasia/lower urinary tract symptoms had no impact on their quality of life (QoL), in 48.1 % only little impact on QoL, and 47.9% patients percepted their symptoms as severe. Out of 71.4% patients treated previously, 26.5% patients were indecisive about the satisfaction of present treatment. Visual analog score was percepted more optimistically rather than the IPSS. Pearson's correlation r = 0.68 at the beginning and r = 0.83 at the end of the study.
    Conclusions: Prostate and Expectations of Treatment Epidemiology Research study highlights and reflects on patients behavior and self-perception, patients self-perception of the disease and therapeutic priorities during the 1 year of observation.
