Flexible ureteroscopy under local anesthesia for stone management: initial exploration and two-year experience
CONCLUSIONS: The study revealed that f-URS administered under LA was a well-tolerated, efficient, safe, and economical procedure. In the DRG era, this new anesthetic option for f-URS provides urologists with a more cost-effective alternative.PMID:37773585 | DOI:10.1080/00325481.2023.2265991 (Source: Postgraduate Medicine)

Predictors of stroke-associated pneumonia and the predictive value of neutrophil percentage-to-albumin ratio
CONCLUSION: Male gender, dysphagia and hemiparesis were the strongest predictors of SAP, and NPAR has an excellent performance in predicting SAP which was better than high NLR and MLR.PMID:37756038 | DOI:10.1080/00325481.2023.2261354 (Source: Postgraduate Medicine)

An analysis of cardiology consultation requests in infants presented to the pediatric emergency department of a tertiary children's hospital
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, congenital heart disease is usually diagnosed in the neonatal period, but some patients may be missed due to a variety of symptoms and findings. Infants with feeding problems and jaundice, especially those with cardiomegaly on chest radiographs, should be carefully evaluated for underlying serious congenital heart disease.PMID:37731167 | DOI:10.1080/00325481.2023.2261356 (Source: Postgraduate Medicine)

Early diagnosis of chronic kidney disease in patients with diabetes in France: multidisciplinary expert opinion, prevention value and practical recommendations
This article provides an overview of critical laboratory evidence of CKD and their limitations, such as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR), Kidney Failure Risk Equation (KFRE), and serum potassium. eGFR is estimated using the CKD-EPI 2009 formula, more relevant in Europe, from the calibrated dosage of plasma creatinine. The estimation formula and the diagnostic thresholds have been the subject of recent controversies. Recent guidelines emphasized the combined equation using both creatinine and cystatin for improved estimation of GFR. UACR on a spot urine sample is a simple...
