Ureteroscopic pneumatic lithotripsy of impacted ureteral calculi
INTRODUCTION: This work evaluates the results of ureteroscopic treatment of impacted ureteral stones with a pneumatic lithotripter. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From March 1997 to May 2002, 42 patients with impacted ureteral stones were treated by retrograde ...

Effective stone disintegration by extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) may depend on patient- and stone-related factors. We investigated predictors of disintegration failure in ESWL for a solitary ureteral calculus.

A criterion for separating process calculi [PDF]
We introduce a new criterion, replacement freeness, to discern the relative expressiveness of process calculi. Intuitively, a calculus is strongly replacement free if replacing, within an enclosing context, a process that cannot perform any visible ...

On the relationship between hypersequent calculi and labelled sequent calculi for intermediate logics with geometric Kripke semantics [PDF]
In this thesis we examine the relationship between hypersequent and some types of labelled sequent calculi for a subset of intermediate logics—logics between intuitionistic (Int), and classical logics—that have geometric Kripke semantics, which we call ...

Cystatin C in Evaluating Renal Function in Ureteral Calculi Hydronephrosis in Adults
Background: Serum cystatin C (CysC) is still becoming used as a marker of renal function but is far from being commonly used worldwide. The purpose of this study was to characterize the ureteral calculi patients with hydronephrosis-caused CysC changes in

Complications Due to Surgical Treatment of Ureteral Calculi [PDF]
Ureteral calculi usually induce severe colic pain, hematuria, hydronephrosis, infection and renal function loss, which warrant aggressive surgical management. The incidence of complication seems to decrease with the use of advanced equipment and machines
