Determinants of Estrogen Prescriptions for Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Vaginal estrogen is a highly effective, evidence‐based prevention method for postmenopausal women with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), yet studies suggest its underutilization by non‐specialist providers. Guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), this study examined adoption, fidelity, and

Halting the Progression of Acute Kidney Injury: A Tubular‐Inspired Reusable Detoxifier Against Protein‐Bound Uremic Toxins and Oxidative Stress

SusMat, EarlyView.
This graphical ToC illustrates a tubular‐inspired detoxifier (SDCMs–DS) that halts acute kidney injury progression. Inspired by proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs), the biomimetic design combines dissociation‐adsorption clearance of protein‐bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) with antioxidant protection. During hemoperfusion, danshensu (DS) released from

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

NEPHROVESICAL SUBCUTANEUS STENT IN URETHERAL OBSTRUCTION DUE TO ABDOMINOPELVIC TUMOR: A CASE REPORT

Urology Research and Practice, 2019
Introduction: Abdominopelvic malignancies can cause ureteral obstruction. Since indwelling ureteral catheters are usually not sufficient enough to drainage the kidneys in these patients, percutaneous nephrostomy tubes are usually indicated.
