Computerized tomography‐derived body composition metrics are associated with 24‐h urine lithogenic parameters

open access: yesBJUI Compass, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Background The relationship between body composition and lithogenic urine parameters remains poorly defined. This study aimed to evaluate associations between computerized tomography (CT)‐derived body composition metrics and 24‐h urine findings. Methods Stone‐forming patients in our Nephrolithiasis Database who underwent 24‐h urine testing and

Fermentation‐Assisted Valorization: A Sustainable Strategy for Turning Fruit By‐Products Into Value‐Added Food Supplements

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT A substantial proportion of fresh fruit undergoes processing, resulting in underutilized fruit by‑products (FBPs) that are rich in dietary fiber and bioactive compounds. Recent FBP valorization trends demonstrate that fermentation significantly enhances microbiological, nutritional, and sensory attributes, yielding value‑added food supplements.

Caenorhabditis elegans AGXT-1 is a mitochondrial and temperature-adapted ortholog of peroxisomal human AGT1: New insights into between-species divergence in glyoxylate metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In humans, glyoxylate is an intermediary product of metabolism, whose concentration is finely balanced. Mutations in peroxisomal alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase (hAGT1) cause primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1), which results in glyoxylate ...

Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 2 Gene Polymorphism and Alcohol Consumption Are Associated With Nephrolithiasis in a Chinese Population

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ALDH2 polymorphisms are associated with increased risk of nephrolithiasis in humans, and Aldh2 deficiency promotes kidney stone formation in mice, especially under alcohol exposure. ABSTRACT Background Nephrolithiasis is a common urological disorder and has become a significant global public health issue.

Transurethral Approach for Management of Large Stone Formed on Staples in a Female Patient With Orthotopic Neobladder Assisted by Transurethral Amplatz Sheath and LithoClast Trilogy

open access: yesCase Reports in Urology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Bladder stones occurring in orthotopic neobladders are remote late complications with a reported incidence of 5%. They can be managed with open, endoscopic, or robotic‐assisted approaches. A transurethral endoscopic approach is usually offered for smaller stone burdens, while larger stones are often treated by a percutaneous endoscopic or open approach.

Opportunities in Primary and Enteric Hyperoxaluria at the Cross-Roads Between the Clinic and Laboratory

open access: yesKidney International Reports
Hyperoxaluria is a condition in which there is a pathologic abundance of oxalate in the urine through either hepatic overproduction (primary hyperoxaluria [PH]) or excessive enteric absorption of dietary oxalate (enteric hyperoxaluria [EH]). Severity can
