Studies Show Continued Efficacy Of New UTI Vaccine
(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) SAN ANTONIO, May 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Abstracts being presented at the American Urological Association's Annual Meeting discuss a new urinary tract infection (UTI) treatment as well as the UTI implications of weight management drugs.
Researchers will present their study findings covering important updates on UTI in San Antonio, Texas, from May 3 to 6. Wai Lee, MD, assistant professor of urology and director of Female Pelvic medicine and Reconstructive Surgery at Northwell health in Long Island, NY, moderated a virtual press session with the abstract authors, providing key insights into their research.
“Fifty percent of women develop a urinary tract infection in their lifetime and a quarter will experience recurrent infections. Treating this can be challenging for the patient and for providers,” said Dr. Lee.“We're excited to look at a longevity study on a new vaccination for UTI as well as research on the potential UTI risks of a popular weight management drug that can alter the body's metabolism and the amount of sugar in the urinary tract.”
The following abstracts are covered in the moderated panel:
