Clinicopathological Characteristics of Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer With Loss of Immunohistochemical Expression of Mismatch Repair Proteins

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Lynch syndrome (LS) is an inherited cancer predisposition caused by germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is the third most common cancer associated with LS. In this study, we examined MMR protein expression in UTUC using immunohistochemistry to clarify the clinicopathological

A Decrease in Longitudinal Length of Kidney is a Reliable Tool to Predict the Success of Pyeloplasty in Children

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The renal pelvis anteroposterior diameter (RPAPD) is an important parameter used in the indication and follow‐up of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). We hypothesized that kidney dimensions, namely longitudinal length (LL) and transverse width (TW), may have an easier similar validity to RPAPD measurement in the diagnosis of

Smooth Muscle Mechanosensitivity Generates and Maintains Pressure Gradients Across the Intestine

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Mechanosensitivity of the smooth muscle induces a positive‐feedback loop that spontaneously generates pressure gradients across gut segments and stabilizes initially applied pressure gradients. It can act jointly or compete with the pressure gradient induced by directional peristaltic waves.
