    Abstract Purpose: While hematospermia is mainly caused by genitourinary inflammatory disorders, very few studies have been published on prostatitis-associated hematospermia (PAH) diagnosed using robust prostatitis evaluation methods. Therefore, we have evaluated the incidence of PAH by using systematic methods for evaluating prostatitis.
    Materials and methods: We evaluated 37 hematospermia patients from a single hospital over the last five years. We classified the patients into PAH versus hematospermia without any evidence of prostatitis (HWP) by using a NIH-Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index questionnaire and expressed prostatic secretion studies.
    Results: The mean age was 55.89±14.87 years, and the patients were grouped into two groups: one group had 12 HWP patients and the other 25 PAH patients. PAH patients were further sub-classified: chronic bacterial prostatitis (3 patients), chronic nonbacterial prostatitis (10 patients), prostadynia (7 patients), and asymptomatic prostatitis (5 patients). We found Enterococcus faecalis in the three chronic bacterial prostatitis patients. We could not find any statistically significant difference between the PAH and the HWP groups in terms of the age interval, serum prostate-specific antigen level, and prostate volume. Even though there was no statistically significant difference in the items about urination between the two groups, we found a statistically significant difference in the quality of life (QoL) impact for the patients in this study.
    Conclusions: Two-thirds of the hematospermia patients were associated with some evidence of prostatitis. Further, the patients with PAH revealed poor QoL compared with the patients with HWP. Therefore, we must evaluate the presence of prostatitis in hematospermia patients and alleviate the prostatitis-associated symptoms to improve their QoL.

    Abstract Purpose: We analyzed the database from the Korean National Infectious Diseases Surveillance to reveal clinical characteristics of co-infection with Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) and Chlamydia trachomatis (CT). Materials and Methods: Eligible cases included a single NG infection (male/female) for 6,421 (4,975/1,446), a single CT infection for 20,436 (6,107/14,329), and co-infection for 498 (233/265) between 2011 and 2015. Results: Cases of NG and CT have increased for 5 years; the proportion of co-infected male has increased continuously and was positively correlated with that of CT infections. But the proportion of co-infected female was positively correlated with that of NG infections, following an expanded wavelike-pattern. Generally, people with co-infection was younger than either infection alone (p=0.001). But the characteristics of co-infection revealed sex-specific differences. While the co-infected females were younger than females in NG (p=0.001) or CT group (p=0.001), the co-infected males were younger than males in CT (p=0.001) only, not males in the NG group (p=0.394). Amongst males, 4.47% with NG had CT infection, while in female 15.49% with NG had CT (p=0.001). In contrast, in male 3.68% with CT infection had NG infection and in female 1.82% of CT had NG (p=0.001). Young people in both sexes have increased risks of co-infection bi-directionally (all p=0.001), except males with NG that were also co-infected with CT (p=0.642). Conclusions: The sex-specific findings in co-infection may improve understanding of gender-specific characteristics in NG and CT infections. Co-infected people are increasing for 5 years. Therefore, we must consider long-term complication of the co-infected people.

    Abstract KoreaPurpose: Because of the inconsistent symptoms associated with Ureaplasma infections, their clinical significances in genitourinary tracts are under debate. Therefore, we evaluated the presence of Ureaplasma urealyticum (UU) and Ureaplasma parvum (UP) in urine samples and examined their associations with chronic prostatitis (CP) through a case and control study. Materials and Methods: We included 696 nonchlamydial nongonococcal (NCNG) urine samples from men; 350 were categorized into non-inflammatory CP, 88 in inflammatory CP, and 258 in non-CP group. We amplified a region in the Ureaplasma urease areas from these samples and determined their biovars using the Sanger method. Results: Among the NCNG population, the rates of UU, UP, and non-UU/UP were 3.88%, 6.46%, and 89.66%, respectively. The overall infection rates of non-CP, inflammatory CP, and non-inflammatory CP groups were 4.15%, 6.10%, and 3.65% in UU (p=0.612) and 6.85%, 7.22%, and 6.50% in UP (p=0.968), respectively. UU infection increased the risk of white blood cell (WBC) counts (≥5) in urine (p=0.005). In contrast, UP infections did not increase the risks of urethritis. Re-analysis from the 633 men who were excluded from urethritis effects did not reveal the associations between UU infection and the clinical characteristics of CP. Furthermore, the profiles from the National Institutes of Health-Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index questionnaire and WBC counts in expressed prostatic secretion were similar among the non-CP and the two CP groups in each Ureaplasma infection.Conclusions: We found that UU may induce male urethritis. However, Ureapalsma species in urine were not definitively associated with the occurrence of CP.
