Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Hypothalamic hamartomas (HHs) lead to refractory epilepsy, and minimally invasive surgical approaches are standard of care for affected patients. Stereotactic radiofrequency thermocoagulation (SRT) is one of the treatment methods recognized to achieve seizure freedom. This study reports surgical outcome from a single center reporting

Translational andrology and urology, 2014 Our understanding of the molecular basis of cystinuria has deepened as the result of the causative genes, SLC3A1 and SLC7A9, being identified. The proteins coded for by these genes form a heterodimer responsible for reabsorption of filtered cystine in the proximal tubule. Failure of this transport system to be targeted to the apical membrane, as in the

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While nephrocalcinosis (kidney stones) is uncommon in wild teleost fish, various environmental and nutritional factors could lead to its occurrence in aquacultured fish. This study presents the first documented case of kidney stones in aquacultured Brazilian sardine (Sardinella brasiliensis). During necropsy, eighteen hard, white kidney stones

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Pathogenesis of Nephrolithiasis [PDF]
Journal of Urology, 2013 Much has been learned in the last decade regarding the initial steps of crystal deposition and ultimate stone formation. There appear to be 3 basic pathways for crystal formation in the upper urinary tract. The first and most common pathway is the overgrowth of calcium oxalate on suburothelial deposits of hydroxyapatite, so-called Randall plaque.1 This

Empagliflozin does not prevent progression of Dent's disease type 1 in a mouse model
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Dent's disease is a rare inherited renal disorder characterized by generalized proximal tubule dysfunction with low molecular weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, and urinary loss of other solutes. The disease is progressive and leads to chronic kidney disease.
