Dose-dependent new bone formation by extracorporeal shock wave application on the intact femur of rabbits [PDF]

, 2008
Background: Whereas various molecular working mechanisms of shock waves have been demonstrated, no study has assessed in detail the influence of varying energy flux densities (EFD) on new bone formation in vivo. Methods: Thirty Chinchilla bastard rabbits

Power is not performance: Analysis of laser‐use metrics from a randomised clinical trial comparing low‐ and high‐power ureteroscopic lithotripsy

BJUI Compass, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Objective Thulium fibre laser (TFL) offers a wide range of power settings during ureteroscopic (URS) lithotripsy, yet the impact of power selection on intraoperative laser‐use dynamics remains unclear. The objective of this study was to characterise differences in laser activation patterns between low‐power (LP) and high‐power (HP) TFL during ...

Acoustic sensing of renal stone fragmentation in extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy [PDF]

, 2008
This thesis describes the research carried out by the author on the exploitation of acoustic emissions detected during extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (a non-invasive procedure for the treatment of urinary stones) to develop a new diagnostic system.

Active migration technique in RIRS for 1‐ to 2‐cm middle and upper ureteral stones in a prospective randomized controlled study

BJUI Compass, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to observe the efficacy and safety of the active migration technique and in situ lithotripsy technique in retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) for patients with 1‐ to 2‐cm middle and upper ureteral stones. Patients and Methods Two hundred seven patients were enrolled in the study, of which 103 included in the study ...

Development of a new diagnostic device for extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy [PDF]

, 2004
Extracorporeal Shock-Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) is the leading technique for the non-invasive treatment of urinary stones. Thousands of ultrasound shocks are focused on the stones in order to break them into fragments small enough to be passed naturally by ...

Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy Promotes Peripheral Nerve Regeneration Through ERK1/2‐Mediated Autophagy

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1558, Issue 1, April 2026.
Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (SWT) promotes structural and functional recovery following sciatic nerve injury. This study demonstrates that SWT activates the ERK1/2 signaling pathway in Schwann cells, which in turn upregulates autophagic flux.

Steinstrasse predictive factors and outcomes after extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy

International Brazilian Journal of Urology, 2011
PURPOSE: Urinary stone disease is a common medical problem. Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (SWL) has been applied with high success and low complication rates. Steinstrasse (SS) is a possible complication after SWL. The aim of the present study was

Contemporary and Emerging Therapies in the Management of Refractory Angina: A Clinical Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 869-884, March 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Refractory angina (RA) represents a growing challenge in clinical cardiology, particularly in patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) who remain symptomatic despite optimal medical therapy and who are not candidates for revascularization.
