Urinary diversion in paraplegia [PDF]

open access: yesSpinal Cord, 1967
Urinary diversion has a place, with certain limitations, in the treatment of neuropathic bladders. If there is deterioration of renal function which cannot be controlled by making the patient totally incontinent or by constant urethral catheter drainage, diversion seems to be essential and has been shown to be beneficial.

Reconstruction Strategies of the Ureter and Urinary Diversion Using Tissue Engineering Approaches.

open access: yesTissue engineering. Part B, Reviews, 2019
IMPACT STATEMENT Tissue Engineering (TE) approaches are needed to advance the field of reconstructive urology. We indicate that regeneration of ureteral tissue and the formation of a urinary diversion using TE approaches are possible, although it is ...

Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to

Translation, Linguistic Validation, and Cultural Adaptation of the Bladder Cancer Index (BCI) Questionnaire Into the Persian (Farsi) Language and Comparing it With WHO Quality of Life Questionnaire: An Observational Study

open access: yesJournal of Family and Reproductive Health, 2023
Objective: Whether ileal conduit diversion (ICD) or orthotopic neobladder (ONB) urinary diversion provides better quality of life (QoL) is still under debate. The Bladder Cancer Index (BCI) is a specific tool for bladder cancer (BCa) patients, providing

Biofabrication of a Filtration Barrier by Integrating Electrospun Membranes and Flow in a Glomerular Co‐Culture

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An ex vivo glomerular filtration barrier is engineered using electrospun, biomimetic membranes seeded with human glomerular cells. The model supports fenestrated endothelium and podocyte foot processes under flow, mimics size‐selective filtration, and enables disease modeling with hiPSC‐derived podocytes, offering a powerful platform for studying ...
