in children&#46; The first issue that is recognized is the need for a consistent terminology in this field&#46; The authors use the term urinary retention to describe what is defined in the International Children&#39;s Continence Society &#40;ICCS&#41; standardization document as voiding postponement&#58; Children who habitually postpone micturition using holding maneuvers suffer from voiding postponement&#46; This creates ambiguity for the reader and makes it difficult to perform an accurate literature search to do future studies in the topic&#46; We need to have a concerted effort by all the authors to use standardized terminology to help the profession continue to advance scientifically&#46;</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">I have respect for the editors of this journal being willing to accept a retrospective study&#44; which has become a &#8220;pariah&#8221; in academic circles and journals&#46; There has been a concerted bias in clinical medicine to downplay retrospective studies as poor quality medical research in lieu of other prospective studies that are of marginal value&#46; I have seen an inordinate number of papers and abstracts being presented based on database reviews of billing or diagnostic data&#44; with no input of patient information&#46; The pediatric urology conferences are rife with these studies&#44; with conference coordinators enamored by the fact that these are prospective studies and are rated higher than retrospective studies&#46; The other form of study that has become prevalent is the prospective database study&#44; with the authors rating subjective findings themselves&#46; We are seeing numerous studies like this come to conferences and publication because they are prospective&#44; so they surely must be better&#46; How can someone reviewing his or her own outcomes&#44; while already knowing what the hypothesis is&#44; really produce an unbiased study&#63; For some reason&#44; editors and those in charge of conferences have given these studies greater relevance than the retrospective reviews&#46; Good respective reviews&#44; such as this one&#44; can offer a tremendous amount of knowledge&#46; Yes&#44; there are limitations with retrospective studies&#44; but as long as they are recognized and appropriately acknowledged&#44; they should not prevent the presentation of novel data&#46; In some cases&#44; retrospective reviews can reduce bias&#46; How&#63; If the patients were treated with no prior intent to publish the data&#44; the likelihood that the practitioners would be pushed to achieve a hypothesis outcome are lower&#46; If the person reviewing the data is different from the caretaker&#44; it also tends to reduce the risk of bias&#46; We need retrospective reviews to give us pilot studies with novel concepts&#59; without this&#44; we would have to wait years for the perfect study&#46; Having been involved in clinical trials for drugs attempting to achieve approval in the US and Europe&#44; it can take a long time for these studies to come to fruition&#46; It is even more devastating if the wrong hypothesis is established&#59; then&#44; the whole study could be for naught&#46; In some cases&#44; what could have been a novel concept can go unrecognized&#46; There is a place for well-done and thorough retrospective reviews&#44; such as this study&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The other important aspect of this paper is that the authors have concluded what I have been advocating and others have shown&#58; that there is a limited role for the use of urodynamics in the evaluation of children with LUTD&#46; They noted that 36&#47;38 patients had urodynamic abnormalities and two did not have any abnormalities&#46; Let us analyze this further and see if it really was necessary to perform these procedures&#46; As the authors have shown that a good history is critical and very valuable in obtaining a diagnosis&#44; the fact is that overactivity as evidenced by urgency&#44; urge incontinence&#44; and frequency would more than likely be evidence of detrusor instability on urodynamics&#46; Even if the child has urodynamically proven detrusor instability&#44; is the treatment going to be any different&#63; The answer is an emphatic no&#46; We would treat overactive symptoms the same way whether detrusor instability was or was not present&#46; Why do urodynamics and put a child through an uncomfortable procedure unnecessarily&#46; Could the dysfunctional voiding have been detected without urodynamics&#63; Of course it could&#46; The use of uroflowmetry with electromyography &#40;EMG&#41; of the perineum and concomitant EMG of the abdomen provides good proof of dysfunctional voiding&#44; negating the need to do urodynamics&#46; We can even diagnosis internal sphincter dyssynergia by utilizing lag times&#44; as described by Combs and Glassberg&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> Bladder overactivity has been found to correlate with short lag times and tower voiding patterns&#44; making it more likely to make the diagnosis of diagnose overactive bladder &#40;OAB&#41; noninvasively&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> Our recent publication<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> defining a quantitative approach to uroflowmetry helps remove much of the subjectivity in reading curves&#46; We know that there is great subjectivity in the process of determining whether curves are bell <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">vs&#46;</span> plateau and bell <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">vs&#46;</span> tower&#46; Using a flow index as we have devised removes that subjectivity and makes the interpretation of uroflowmetry more objective&#44; rendering it a more powerful tool&#46; The use of the flow index can lead to the ability to follow patients longitudinally&#44; irrespective of age or volume voided&#59; this combined with EMG of the perineum and abdomen creates a tool that is just as powerful as or more so than urodynamics&#46; The authors show us that they have reached a high concordance of 85&#37; by making the diagnosis of detrusor instability with history and non-invasive tests&#46; This confirms our own beliefs and the work of Bael et al&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0060"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> that there is a limited place in the management of children with OAB with urodynamics&#46; There are some refractory patients in whom urodynamics are called for&#59; these are the patients whom the practitioners suspect may have a neurogenic bladder&#44; or in some cases&#44; they wish to perform video-urodynamics because there is a need for a voiding cystourethrogram and the urodynamics is done concomitantly&#46; But&#44; even this is something that I would not look favorably upon&#44; since to perform urodynamics a rectal balloon catheter needs to be inserted and sedation can not be given&#44; making the procedure worse than a stand-alone voiding cystourethrogram &#40;VCUG&#41; which can be done using an amnestic or propofol anesthesia&#46;</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">If the practitioners seriously suspect that the patient may have a neurogenic bladder&#44; then it is probably advisable to do a magnetic resonance imaging &#40;MRI&#41; of the spine before performing urodynamics&#46; If the MRI is normal&#44; then the need to perform urodynamics is almost nil&#44; as evidenced by a Stone et al&#46;&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0065"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> who showed that all patients that had normal MRIs did not have anything besides detrusor instability on urodynamics&#46; If one is worried about non-neurogenic neurogenic bladder that diagnosis can be made with a VCUG showing evidence of severe trabeculation&#44; Christmas tree shape&#44; and external sphincter dyssynergia or internal sphincter dyssynergia on the VCUG&#46; Therefore&#44; the need to use invasive urodynamics should be severely restricted in children with routine symptoms of OAB&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another fact that was interesting in the article is that the authors made note that they did not find an association between obesity and voiding symptoms&#44; as has been noted in the literature&#46; This may be explained by a recent article by Wang et al&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0070"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> that looked at behavioral problems in early adolescence in a cohort of patients in Hong Kong&#46; They did not find a link between obesity and emotional and behavioral problems&#46; We know there is a link between emotional and behavioral problems and urinary incontinence in children and adults&#46; Therefore&#44; by extension&#44; we can presume that the lack of obesity and LUTD in this cohort of patients may be geographic&#44; ethnic&#44; societal&#44; and&#47;or possibly due to cultural variations that could preclude the development of obesity in certain areas of the world&#46; In this case&#44; if the group of children in this study was drawn from a population of children with less access to food&#44; then we could see a lower incidence of obesity in this study&#44; and possibly negate the findings that have been observed in the United States and Europe&#44; where obesity is an epidemic&#46;</p><span id="sec0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0005">Conflicts of interest</span><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Prof&#46;

in children&#46; The first issue that is recognized is the need for a consistent terminology in this field&#46; The authors use the term urinary retention to describe what is defined in the International Children&#39;s Continence Society &#40;ICCS&#41; standardization document as voiding postponement&#58; Children who habitually postpone micturition using holding maneuvers suffer from voiding postponement&#46; This creates ambiguity for the reader and makes it difficult to perform an accurate literature search to do future studies in the topic&#46; We need to have a concerted effort by all the authors to use standardized terminology to help the profession continue to advance scientifically&#46;</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">I have respect for the editors of this journal being willing to accept a retrospective study&#44; which has become a &#8220;pariah&#8221; in academic circles and journals&#46; There has been a concerted bias in clinical medicine to downplay retrospective studies as poor quality medical research in lieu of other prospective studies that are of marginal value&#46; I have seen an inordinate number of papers and abstracts being presented based on database reviews of billing or diagnostic data&#44; with no input of patient information&#46; The pediatric urology conferences are rife with these studies&#44; with conference coordinators enamored by the fact that these are prospective studies and are rated higher than retrospective studies&#46; The other form of study that has become prevalent is the prospective database study&#44; with the authors rating subjective findings themselves&#46; We are seeing numerous studies like this come to conferences and publication because they are prospective&#44; so they surely must be better&#46; How can someone reviewing his or her own outcomes&#44; while already knowing what the hypothesis is&#44; really produce an unbiased study&#63; For some reason&#44; editors and those in charge of conferences have given these studies greater relevance than the retrospective reviews&#46; Good respective reviews&#44; such as this one&#44; can offer a tremendous amount of knowledge&#46; Yes&#44; there are limitations with retrospective studies&#44; but as long as they are recognized and appropriately acknowledged&#44; they should not prevent the presentation of novel data&#46; In some cases&#44; retrospective reviews can reduce bias&#46; How&#63; If the patients were treated with no prior intent to publish the data&#44; the likelihood that the practitioners would be pushed to achieve a hypothesis outcome are lower&#46; If the person reviewing the data is different from the caretaker&#44; it also tends to reduce the risk of bias&#46; We need retrospective reviews to give us pilot studies with novel concepts&#59; without this&#44; we would have to wait years for the perfect study&#46; Having been involved in clinical trials for drugs attempting to achieve approval in the US and Europe&#44; it can take a long time for these studies to come to fruition&#46; It is even more devastating if the wrong hypothesis is established&#59; then&#44; the whole study could be for naught&#46; In some cases&#44; what could have been a novel concept can go unrecognized&#46; There is a place for well-done and thorough retrospective reviews&#44; such as this study&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The other important aspect of this paper is that the authors have concluded what I have been advocating and others have shown&#58; that there is a limited role for the use of urodynamics in the evaluation of children with LUTD&#46; They noted that 36&#47;38 patients had urodynamic abnormalities and two did not have any abnormalities&#46; Let us analyze this further and see if it really was necessary to perform these procedures&#46; As the authors have shown that a good history is critical and very valuable in obtaining a diagnosis&#44; the fact is that overactivity as evidenced by urgency&#44; urge incontinence&#44; and frequency would more than likely be evidence of detrusor instability on urodynamics&#46; Even if the child has urodynamically proven detrusor instability&#44; is the treatment going to be any different&#63; The answer is an emphatic no&#46; We would treat overactive symptoms the same way whether detrusor instability was or was not present&#46; Why do urodynamics and put a child through an uncomfortable procedure unnecessarily&#46; Could the dysfunctional voiding have been detected without urodynamics&#63; Of course it could&#46; The use of uroflowmetry with electromyography &#40;EMG&#41; of the perineum and concomitant EMG of the abdomen provides good proof of dysfunctional voiding&#44; negating the need to do urodynamics&#46; We can even diagnosis internal sphincter dyssynergia by utilizing lag times&#44; as described by Combs and Glassberg&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> Bladder overactivity has been found to correlate with short lag times and tower voiding patterns&#44; making it more likely to make the diagnosis of diagnose overactive bladder &#40;OAB&#41; noninvasively&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> Our recent publication<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> defining a quantitative approach to uroflowmetry helps remove much of the subjectivity in reading curves&#46; We know that there is great subjectivity in the process of determining whether curves are bell <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">vs&#46;</span> plateau and bell <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">vs&#46;</span> tower&#46; Using a flow index as we have devised removes that subjectivity and makes the interpretation of uroflowmetry more objective&#44; rendering it a more powerful tool&#46; The use of the flow index can lead to the ability to follow patients longitudinally&#44; irrespective of age or volume voided&#59; this combined with EMG of the perineum and abdomen creates a tool that is just as powerful as or more so than urodynamics&#46; The authors show us that they have reached a high concordance of 85&#37; by making the diagnosis of detrusor instability with history and non-invasive tests&#46; This confirms our own beliefs and the work of Bael et al&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0060"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> that there is a limited place in the management of children with OAB with urodynamics&#46; There are some refractory patients in whom urodynamics are called for&#59; these are the patients whom the practitioners suspect may have a neurogenic bladder&#44; or in some cases&#44; they wish to perform video-urodynamics because there is a need for a voiding cystourethrogram and the urodynamics is done concomitantly&#46; But&#44; even this is something that I would not look favorably upon&#44; since to perform urodynamics a rectal balloon catheter needs to be inserted and sedation can not be given&#44; making the procedure worse than a stand-alone voiding cystourethrogram &#40;VCUG&#41; which can be done using an amnestic or propofol anesthesia&#46;</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">If the practitioners seriously suspect that the patient may have a neurogenic bladder&#44; then it is probably advisable to do a magnetic resonance imaging &#40;MRI&#41; of the spine before performing urodynamics&#46; If the MRI is normal&#44; then the need to perform urodynamics is almost nil&#44; as evidenced by a Stone et al&#46;&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0065"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> who showed that all patients that had normal MRIs did not have anything besides detrusor instability on urodynamics&#46; If one is worried about non-neurogenic neurogenic bladder that diagnosis can be made with a VCUG showing evidence of severe trabeculation&#44; Christmas tree shape&#44; and external sphincter dyssynergia or internal sphincter dyssynergia on the VCUG&#46; Therefore&#44; the need to use invasive urodynamics should be severely restricted in children with routine symptoms of OAB&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another fact that was interesting in the article is that the authors made note that they did not find an association between obesity and voiding symptoms&#44; as has been noted in the literature&#46; This may be explained by a recent article by Wang et al&#46;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0070"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> that looked at behavioral problems in early adolescence in a cohort of patients in Hong Kong&#46; They did not find a link between obesity and emotional and behavioral problems&#46; We know there is a link between emotional and behavioral problems and urinary incontinence in children and adults&#46; Therefore&#44; by extension&#44; we can presume that the lack of obesity and LUTD in this cohort of patients may be geographic&#44; ethnic&#44; societal&#44; and&#47;or possibly due to cultural variations that could preclude the development of obesity in certain areas of the world&#46; In this case&#44; if the group of children in this study was drawn from a population of children with less access to food&#44; then we could see a lower incidence of obesity in this study&#44; and possibly negate the findings that have been observed in the United States and Europe&#44; where obesity is an epidemic&#46;</p><span id="sec0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0005">Conflicts of interest</span><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Prof&#46;
