Xanthogranulomatous Pyelonephritis: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) is a rare form of chronic pyelonephritis, often associated with renal calculus and infection Escherichia coli and Proteus mirabilis are the most frequent organisms isolated in individuals with the disease. Its incidence is 1.4 cases per 100,000 population each year.

Abstract Aims Inter‐atrial shunt device therapy has shown mixed results in clinical trials, with clinical ‘non‐responders’ typically showing features of more advanced heart failure. We aimed to analyse the haemodynamic and clinical response of a novel left atrial to coronary sinus (LA‐CS) shunt device in patients with higher natriuretic peptide (NP ...

Abstract Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a complex syndrome accounting for half of heart failure cases. Although natriuretic peptides are the most accepted and extensively used biomarkers for heart failure, their diagnostic accuracy for HFpEF remains debatable.
