Does instrumentation and irrigation configuration affect intrarenal pressure during PCNL?

BJUI Compass, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Objectives To measure the effects of varying configurations of nephroscope sheath, irrigation, instruments, and suction on intrarenal pressure (IRP) during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Materials and Methods Kidney and ureter 3D printed models from a deidentified patient's CT scan were placed in a plaster and foam mould, simulating the ...

The intestine and the kidneys : a bad marriage can be hazardous [PDF]

, 2015
The concept that the intestine and chronic kidney disease influence each other, emerged only recently. The problem is multifaceted and bidirectional. On one hand, the composition of the intestinal microbiota impacts uraemic retention solute production ...

Progress in RNA‐Targeted Therapeutics for Human Diseases

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
RNA‐targeted therapies are revolutionizing molecular medicine by transitioning from a “protein‐centric” focus to an “RNA‐regulatory network” approach. Leveraging RNA's diverse roles in gene regulation, signaling, and epigenetic modifications, advanced platforms such as ASOs, siRNA, miRNA, mRNA, aptamers, shRNA, and CRISPR/Cas systems are enabling ...

Expression of heterologous oxalate decarboxylase in HEK293 cells confers protection against oxalate induced oxidative stress as a therapeutic approach for calcium oxalate stone disease

Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2017
Oxalates stimulate alterations in renal epithelial cells and thereby induce calcium oxalate (CaOx) stone formation. Bacillus subtilis YvrK gene encodes for oxalate decarboxylase (OxdC) which degrades oxalate to formate and CO2.

Calcium oxalate crystal adherence to hyaluronan-, osteopontin-, and CD44-expressing injured/regenerating tubular epithelial cells in rat kidneys [PDF]

, 2003
Retention of crystals in the kidney is an essential early step in renal stone formation. Studies with renal tubular cells in culture indicate that hyaluronan (HA) and osteopontin (OPN) and their mutual cell surface receptor CD44 play an

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

BJUI 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

Food 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.
