AIMS
The COVID-19 pandemic is the most important public health problem in 2020. Millions of people have been infected or died because of the outbreak. We know the common symptoms of the disease such as fever and cough. However, all symptoms and features of COVID-19 are still were not known. We aimed to evaluate the change in lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) after COVID-19 in men.
METHODS
We prospectively assessed 94 patients with COVID-19 during hospitalisation. The patients were divided into two groups according to age, that being over and under age 50. IPSS scores of all patients were enrolled. Additionally, we compared the scores with pre-COVID-19 values.
RESULTS
LUTS scores were found to be increased in elderly patients. Additionally, the severity of the disease did not correlate with LUTS scores.
CONCLUSION
LUTS may be one of the symptoms of COVID-19 in some patients. Elderly patients with increased LUTS should be evaluated for COVID-19 when the reason unclear.
目的
2020 年，COVID-19 疫情是最重要的公共卫生问题。数百万人因该疫情而感染或死亡。我们知道该疾病的常见症状，如发热和咳嗽。然而，COVID-19 的所有症状和特征仍不为人知。我们旨在评估男性 COVID-19 后下尿路症状（LUTS）的变化。
方法
我们前瞻性评估了 94 名住院 COVID-19 患者。根据年龄将患者分为两组，即 50 岁以上和 50 岁以下。纳入所有患者的 IPSS 评分。此外，我们将评分与 COVID-19 前的值进行了比较。
结果
LUTS 评分在老年患者中升高。此外，疾病的严重程度与 LUTS 评分无关。
结论
在某些患者中，LUTS 可能是 COVID-19 的症状之一。当原因不明时，应评估 LUTS 增加的老年患者是否患有 COVID-19。
