Animal study on factors influencing anterograde renal pelvis perfusion manometry
ObjectsAnterograde renal pelvis perfusion manometry is an effective method to assist in the diagnosis of upper urinary tract obstruction.MethodsTo established a rat model of partial ureteral obstruction to explore the perfusion rate, renal pelvis volume,

Mammals and birds are the only vertebrates known to produce a concentrated urine by means of renal medullary countercurrent systems. These two countercurrent systems, however, exhibit functional and anatomical differences which appear to be related to the fact that mammals are ureotelic while birds are uricotelic.

A 73‐Year‐Old Man With Several Years of Difficulty Climbing Stairs and Frequent Tripping
ABSTRACT A 73‐year‐old man presented with progressive weakness and atrophy predominantly affecting the distal finger flexors and quadriceps muscles. Electrophysiological studies demonstrated mixed myogenic and neurogenic features. Muscle MRI showed inflammatory changes, and muscle biopsy revealed granulomatous myositis with histologic features ...

Randall's plaques (RP) serve as the nidus for calcium oxalate (CaOx) kidney stones. The current study reveals that hydroxyapatite (HAP) crystals activate the THY1–GSK3α/β–β‐catenin axis in renal interstitial fibroblasts (hRIFs), inducing FASLG secretion.

Antenatally diagnosed renal pelvis dilatation [PDF]
Editor—We were interested in the findings of Jaswon et al regarding the outcome of babies with antenatally detected renal pelvis dilatation (ARPD).1Since October 1997 it has been the practice in our unit to perform micturating cysto-urethography (MCUG) on all babies with ARPD, defined as a fetal antero-posterior renal pelvis diameter of greater than 5 ...
