Advancing Personalized Care for Neurogenic Bladder: The Case for Continent Urinary Diversion
ABSTRACT Introduction Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) with a poorly compliant bladder that is refractory to minimally invasive therapies (MIT) represents an “end‐stage” phenotype in which the principal objectives are durable upper urinary tract protection and restoration of continence with acceptable long‐term morbidity.

Evolving Sacrocolpopexy Technique Trends
ABSTRACT Introduction Sacrocolpopexy (SCP) is widely considered the gold standard procedure for repairing apical and multi‐compartment prolapse. Despite its long‐standing and widespread use, significant technical variations persist, yet these differences have not been well‐characterized or linked to surgical outcomes.

Malnutrition in cancer surgery: A retrospective study on screening practices and outcomes
Abstract Background Preoperative nutrition risk screening and referral for optimization are recommended for patients undergoing cancer surgery; however, despite high‐risk individuals being identified, referral remains variable. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of preoperative undernutrition risk and body mass index (BMI)‐defined ...

The Audiologic and Otolaryngologic Phenotype in WHIM Syndrome
Abstract Objective WHIM syndrome (warts, hypogammaglobulinemia, infections, and myelokathexis syndrome) is an ultra‐rare primary immunodeficiency disease caused by autosomal dominant hyperfunctional mutations in the chemokine receptor CXCR4. Otolaryngologists are frequently consulted to evaluate WHIM patients because of recurrent acute ear and sinus ...

Diagnostic Yield of Post‐Mortem Fetal Micro‐CT for Abdominal and Pelvic Anomalies
ABSTRACT Objective(s) This study aims to document the abdominal and pelvic anomalies that can be demonstrated using post mortem Micro‐CT, independent of whether the anomaly contributed to the main diagnosis or cause of death. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 1200 whole body post‐mortem fetal Micro‐CT scans in an unselected, consecutive cohort ...

Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) and genetic deletion of Mafb lead to tubular epithelial dedifferentiation, characterized by decreased E‐cadherin and increased α‐SMA and vimentin expression. Intravenous administration of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell‐derived exosomes (HucMSC‐Exos) partially restores Mafb expression in UUO kidneys ...

MSC‐Exo derived from human umbilical cord (HucMSC‐Exo) downregulates INHBA expression, consequently modulating the PI3K/AKT signaling cascade. This regulation attenuates renal fibroblast activation and extracellular matrix deposition, thereby exerting a renoprotective effect against fibrosis.

MicroRNA‐130a‐3p targets and inhibits MAFB expression, leading to the development of hypospadimas. MicroRNA‐130a‐3p inhibits the expression of MAFB, disrupts the normal processes of cell proliferation, migration, cell apoptosis, and cycle progression, and ultimately leads to the development of hypospadias.
