The effects of calculi on ureteral function
Abstract The dynamic action of the renal pelvis and ureter has been studied in 50 patients with ureteral colic due to calculi. Calculi in the renal tract, passing down and obstructing the ureter, profoundly disturb the normal intraluminar pressure and peristaltic activity.

Pathogenic variants prevalence patients with diabetic kidney disease in Japan: A descriptive study
Previous studies have identified pathogenic variants in 22% of Caucasian patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD); however, this proportion may vary depending on ethnicity and updates to the database. Whole‐genome sequencing of 79 patients with DKD in Japan revealed that 34.1% had kidney‐related heterozygous pathogenic variants, and 12.7% had ...
