Characteristics of the urinary microbiome in kidney stone patients with hypertension

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2020
Background Kidney stone disease (KSD) is more common in individuals with hypertension (HTN) than in individuals with normotension (NTN). Urinary dysbiosis is associated with urinary tract disease and systemic diseases.

Micro‐ and nanoplastics in gastrointestinal disorders: Mapping the translational gap between exposure, biomonitoring, and pathogenic mechanisms

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights critical “translational gaps” in understanding micro‐ and nanoplastics impacts on gastrointestinal diseases, bridging exposure, detecting, and mechanistic toxicology. Abstract Micro‐ and nanoplastics (MNPs) have become pervasive environmental contaminants with increasing evidence linking them to adverse health outcomes.

Urinary Microbiota—Are We Ready for Prime Time? A Literature Review of Study Methods’ Critical Steps in Avoiding Contamination and Minimizing Biased Results

Diagnostics, 2020
Within the last few years, there have been an increased number of clinical studies involving urinary microbiota. Low-biomass microbiome sequencing (e.g., urine, lung, placenta, blood) is easily biased by contamination or cross-contamination.

Urinary microbiomes in postmenopausal women with or without urinary symptoms of the genitourinary syndrome of menopause: a cross-sectional study

Scientific Reports
Some postmenopausal women suffer from genital and urinary symptoms, while others do not. Therefore, the hypoestrogenic status cannot entirely explain the occurrence of the genitourinary syndrome in menopause (GSM).

Evaluation of a commercially available rapid urinary porphobilinogen test [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Demonstration of substantially increased urinary excretion of porphobilinogen is the cornerstone of diagnosing acute porphyria crisis. Because porphobilinogen testing is not implemented on clinical chemistry analysers, respective analyses are

Harnessing bacterial extracellular vesicles for bone and cartilage organoids

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review presents bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs) as programmable bioactive regulators for bone and cartilage organoids by delivering functional cargos that modulate skeletal remodeling. It highlights key engineering strategies and future directions to advance next‐generation organoid models for bone aging related diseases.

Urinary cholesterol: its association with a macromolecular protein- lipid complex [PDF]

, 1984
The cholesterol-containing complexes in the urine of normal subjects and patients with diseases accompanied by hyperexcretion of urinary cholesterol were characterized. In normal subjects, the major portion of the recovered urinary cholesterol was eluted
