Abstract Objective Thulium fibre laser (TFL) offers a wide range of power settings during ureteroscopic (URS) lithotripsy, yet the impact of power selection on intraoperative laser‐use dynamics remains unclear. The objective of this study was to characterise differences in laser activation patterns between low‐power (LP) and high‐power (HP) TFL during ...

Improved detection of microbial ureteral stent colonisation by sonication [PDF]
Purpose: The diagnosis of microbial ureteral stent colonisation (MUSC) is difficult, since routine diagnostic techniques do not accurately detect microorganisms embedded in biofilms.

Leveraging extracellular vesicle biology for novel tests and therapeutics for kidney fibrosis
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are bilipid membrane‐encased nanoparticles that play critical roles as cell‐to‐cell messengers and waste management mechanisms. EVs cargos can be leveraged as biomarkers to develop minimally invasive tests for kidney fibrosis and guide personalised mechanism‐driven care.

ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic duodenal stent (DS) placement has become a primary palliative approach for malignant gastric outlet obstruction (MGOO), offering minimally invasive symptom relief. However, complications and risk factors for stent dysfunction and prognostic indicators of survival are not fully elucidated.

Underuse and Potential Detrimental Effect of Radiotherapy in the Management of Ureteral Cancer [PDF]
Ureteral cancer is extremely rare, with only 3530 cases predicted in 2016. Therefore, published studies on ureteral cancers are limited to single-institution retrospective studies, which have not elucidated a clear recommendation on the best treatment ...
