Restorative versus non‐restorative total proctocolectomy: Who doesn't pouch and how do they do?

Colorectal Disease, Volume 28, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Aim Literature comparing total proctocolectomy with permanent end ileostomy (TPC‐EI) and IPAA in patients with UC is sparse. We aimed to (a) elucidate reasons for non‐restorative surgery in ulcerative colitis (UC), (b) describe the incidence of perineal wound complications and (c) assess differences in short‐term outcomes between groups.

TREM2 in Macrophages Promotes Renal Fibrosis via Activation of β‐Catenin Signalling Pathway in Obstructive Nephropathy

Cell Proliferation, Volume 59, Issue 8, August 2026.
Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells 2 (TREM2) promotes obstructive nephropathy progression by activating the β‐catenin signalling pathway, driving M2 macrophage polarisation, migration and fibrogenic gene expression. targeted inhibition of TREM2 thus represents a promising novel strategy against renal fibrosis.

Amino acid homeostasis in the kidney: Physiological roles and pathological dysregulation

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 15, August 2026.
Abstract Amino acids are fundamental to life as protein building blocks and key regulators of metabolism and signaling. The kidney plays a critical, yet underappreciated, role in amino acid homeostasis through three interconnected pillars: selective glomerular filtration, efficient tubular reabsorption, and metabolic processing, which includes de novo ...

Successful Treatment of Obstructive Ureterolithiasis with Medical Expulsive Therapy Including Tamsulosin in a Dog

Veterinary Sciences
Ureterolithiasis is a common cause of ureteral obstruction in dogs, often leading to kidney injury. Medical expulsive therapy (MET) using α-adrenergic antagonists has been proposed as a nonsurgical treatment option in selected cases and is thought to ...

Unilateral ureteral endometriosis masquerading as a ureteral tumor and resulting in complete loss of renal function: A case report

Journal of International Medical Research
Ureteral endometriosis is a rare manifestation of endometriosis that involves the infiltration of endometrial tissue into the ureters, leading to ureteral obstruction and potential renal dysfunction.
