Sigma-1 receptor exerts protective effects on ameliorating nephrolithiasis by modulating endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondrion association and inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells

Redox Report
Oxalate-induced damage to renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) is an essential factor in the incident kidney stone, but the specific mechanism is unclear.

Renal screening sonography—A comparative study in a Portuguese basic emergency service

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 8-16, March 2025.
Renal sonography screening aids in clinical decision‐making for patients with suspected renal colic. This study intends to compare the accuracy and pertinence of sonographic findings obtained by a sonographer in a Basic Emergency Service (BES) with that of radiologists at Referral Hospital (RH) in Portugal. Renal sonography screening was able to detect

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Feasibility of Imaging the Uvula at the Midtrimester Anomaly Ultrasound

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The fetal palate is not routinely imaged as part of the midtrimester fetal anomaly ultrasound, despite being associated with many syndromes. The “equal sign” depicts the lateral borders of the uvula on 2‐dimensional fetal ultrasound. We assessed the feasibility of adding the equal sign to the midtrimester fetal anomaly ultrasound.

Glycemic Control, Animal Protein Intake, and the Risk of Diabetic Retinopathy Progression Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective glycemic control and food consumption play crucial roles in modulating diabetic retinopathy (DR) progression. This observational longitudinal study explored the hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and dietary patterns and their associations with the risk and progression of DR among 369 individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping of Kidney Stones: An Ex Vivo MRI Phantom Study

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To visualize and characterize the five most common kidney stone types based on their magnetic susceptibilities in MRI using QSM. Methods Three water‐based agar phantoms were constructed, containing a total of 53 ex vivo kidney stones of varying types and sizes.

Age and Nocturnal Polyuria in Nocturia: A Multicenter Voiding Diary Cohort Study

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Although the prevalence of nocturnal polyuria (NP) increases with age, the mechanisms underlying age‐related changes in voiding patterns and the daytime–nighttime distribution of urine volume remain unclear. Given that the severity of nocturia and bladder function may differ across age groups, age‐specific voiding profiles require

Quality of life and healthcare resource utilization among adult patients with short bowel syndrome: A mixed‐methods study leveraging an integrated database

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a chronic condition requiring parenteral nutrition (PN) support and multidisciplinary management. However, disparities in access to care and standardized treatment pathways, in addition to economic burden, remain considerable for patients.

Review of nutrition management of pediatric intestinal pseudo‐obstruction

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic intestinal pseudo‐obstruction (CIPO) is a rare, heterogeneous, and debilitating disorder characterized by profound intestinal dysmotility and severe nutrition challenges. Its presentation resembles that of mechanical bowel obstruction, but CIPO occurs in the absence of luminal obstruction.
