Research progress in ureteral wall thickness in diagnosis and treatment of ureteral calculi under NCCT [PDF]
Recently,the incidence of ureteral calculi has been increased,and the treatment methods have been constantly updated. Nowadays,minimally invasive treatment has become a trend,mainly including extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy(ESWL),ureteroscopic ...

Combined laparoscopic pyelolithotomy and endoscopic pyelolithotripsy for staghorn calculi. Long-term follow-up results from a case series [PDF]
Purpose: Staghorn renal stones are a challenging field in urology. Due to their high recurrence rates, particularly those associated with an infective process, a complete removal is the ultimate goal in their management.

ACVIM Small Animal Consensus Recommendations on the Treatment and Prevention of Uroliths in Dogs and Cats. [PDF]
In an age of advancing endoscopic and lithotripsy technologies, the management of urolithiasis poses a unique opportunity to advance compassionate veterinary care, not only for patients with urolithiasis but for those with other urinary diseases as well.

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.

Treatment of renal stones by extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy - An update [PDF]
Aim: Despite the extensive experience with minimal invasive stone therapy, there are still different views on the ideal management of renal stones. Materials and Methods: Analysis of the literature includes more than 14,000 patients.

Triplicate Ureter with Complicated Ureteral Cyst in an Ectopic Malrotated Kidney: A Rare Association
One of the rarest anomalies of the renal collecting system is ureteral triplication along with the presence of a complex ureteral cyst. We describe an unusual case of a 37-year-old man who presented with fever and abdominal pain.

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

Linear Depth Deduction with Subformula Property for Intuitionistic Epistemic Logic [PDF]
In their seminal paper Artemov and Protopopescu provide Hilbert formal systems, Brower-Heyting-Kolmogorov and Kripke semantics for the logics of intuitionistic belief and knowledge. Subsequently Krupski has proved that the logic of intuitionistic knowledge is PSPACE-complete and Su and Sano have provided calculi enjoying the subformula property.

Regular Calculi I: Graphical Regular Logic [PDF]
What is ergonomic syntax for relations? In this first paper in a series of two, to answer the question we define regular calculi: a suitably structured functor from a category representing the syntax of regular logic to the category of posets, that takes each object to the poset of relations on that type.
