Does preventive but not late amiloride therapy reduce morbidity and mortality of lung disease in betaENaC-overexpressing mice?
We conclude that preventive inhibition of increased airway Na(+) absorption provides an effective therapy for CF-like lung disease in vivo. These results suggest that amiloride therapy may be an effective preventive therapy for patients with CF if initiated early in life before the onset of lung disease.
In young and selected patients with prostatic obstruction, it is possible to perform a mini-invasive surgery: "Minimally Invasive Nonexpensive TURP", an effective and safe procedure, not affecting sexual function, and particularly, retrograde ejaculation.
