Diagnosis and Management of Recurrent and Complicated UTIs in Women: Controversies and Dilemmas
In this piece, Dr. Mickey Karram & Dr. Roger R. Dmochowski discuss how although UTIs have demonstrated widespread occurrence and significant healthcare costs, there is not yet a “gold standard” definition for complicated UTI. To avoid the overuse of antimicrobial agents and their associated issues, it is vital that clinicians evaluate test results in the context of a patient’s overall risk and history of UTIs and current clinical presentation and utilize testing that enables more informed decisions.

We Have the Tools to Prevent Cervical Cancer— So Why Are Rates Increasing?
Cervical cancer screening is often hailed as the most successful screening program ever implemented. Despite these past successes, cervical cancer incidence is no longer decreasing and is actually rising significantly in younger women within the United States. In a country with a well-established screening program, effective screening tools, and HPV vaccination, it seems unfathomable that we are witnessing an increase in cervical cancers. This alarming trend should be cause for concern among all healthcare professionals.
