STUDY OF METABOLIC, SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND ANTHROPOMETRIC FACTOR IN PATIENTS WITH BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA (BPH)
Abstract
Despite the high impact of Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) on public health, the pathogenesis of BPH is still unresolved. Indeed, although multiple theories have been proposed, the etiology of BPH still remains uncertain in some aspects. Several mechanisms seem to be involved in the development and progression of BPH. BPH is the most common benign tumor in men, and its incidence is age related. Evidence for socio-demographic differences in the odds of BPH or lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) is conflicting.
This is observational study of 100 patients of BPH admitted to surgery wards. Patients were interviewed for history and clinical examination was conducted. Anthropological parameters were recorded and investigations related to study were done. In present study we have compared the relationship of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia with age, PSA, testosterone level, BMI, WHR, components of metabolic syndrome like blood sugar level and lipid profile and socio-economic status.
