Robotic-assisted vs. open ureteral reimplantation: a multicentre comparison
ConclusionRUR represents a safe alternative to OUR, with a shorter operative time, decreased blood loss and length of hospital stay. Prospective research are needed to further define the extent of the advantages of the robotic approach over open surgery. (Source: World Journal of Urology)

Treatment of ureteropelvic junction obstruction in patients with renal calculi via laparoscopic pyeloplasty and flexible vacuum-assisted ureteral access sheath ureteroscopy: a multicenter retrospective observational study
Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is a common obstructive disease of the urinary tract. UPJO patients commonly exhibit coexistent renal calculi. The main aim of therapy is to relieve the obstruction an... (Source: BMC Urology)

RfxCas13d-mediated inhibition of < em > Circ1647 < /em > alleviates renal fibrosis via PI3K/AKT signaling pathway
CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that Circ1647 plays a significant role in renal fibrosis by mediating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. RfxCas13d-mediated inhibition of Circ1647 may serve as a therapeutic target for renal fibrosis in CKD.PMID:38527916 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2331612 (Source: Renal Failure)

Optimal duration of medical expulsive therapy for lower ureteral stones: a critical evaluation
AbstractTo evaluate the optimal duration of Medical Expulsive Therapy (MET) application for distal ureteric stones on a time period based manner. 89 patients with 5 –10 mm distal ureter stones received tamsulosin (0.4 mg) for MET and diclofenac sodium (75 mg) for analgesia. Patients were evaluated once a week for 4 weeks. Radiologic stone passage was evaluated by kidney ureter bladder (KUB) and ultasonography where non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) w as also performed if needed. While 23 cases (28.4%) were SF after first week, 23 were SF (28.4%) after 2 weeks, 9 cases (11.1%) after 3 and lastly 7 cases (8.6%) be...

Getting hot in here! Comparison of Holmium vs. thulium laser in an anatomic hydrogel kidney model
AbstractAs laser technology has advanced, high-power lasers have become increasingly common. The Holmium: yttrium –aluminum-garnet (Ho:YAG) laser has long been accepted as the standard for laser lithotripsy. The thulium fiber laser (TFL) has recently been established as a viable option. The aim of this study is to evaluate thermal dose and temperature for the Ho:YAG laser to the TFL at four different laser se ttings while varying energy, frequency, operator duty cycle (ODC). Utilizing high-fidelity, 3D-printed hydrogel models of a pelvicalyceal collecting system (PCS) with a synthetic BegoStone implanted in the renal pel...
