In this study, we compared the safety, efficacy and prognosis of percutaneous nephroscopic laser unroofing (PNLU) with those of laparoscopic unroofing (LU) for simple renal cysts.Methods: Data from patients with single renal cysts who underwent PNLU or LU between Jan 2018 and Dec 2023 were collected and followed up thereafter. Baseline characteristics, perioperative events, blood test results and postoperative complications were compared. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) was also compared via survival analysis. Subgroup analyses were conducted in the PNLU group, including the 980 nm laser and Holmium laser groups.Results: A total of 75 patients were included, 35 of whom underwent PNLU and 40 of whom underwent LU. Compared with LU, PNLU requires only one surgical incision and is a shorter procedure, causes less blood loss, requires fewer urinary catheter days, is known for quicker drainage tube removal, requires a shorter postoperative hospital stay, has lower hospitalization costs, induces a weaker postoperative inflammatory response, and is associated with a lower incidence of abdominal distension. There was no significant difference in RFS between the PNLU and LU groups. In the subgroup analyses of PNLU, no significant differences were observed between the 980 nm laser and Holmium laser groups.Conclusion: PNLU is safe, effective and cost-effective for single renal cysts and known for a low complication rate, and its mid-term prognosis is similar to that of laparoscopic surgery.","PeriodicalId":14454,"journal":{"name":"International Urology and Nephrology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143189286","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Baseline and follow-up data were collected. Univariate and multivariate statistics were used to analyze the data.Results: 2,392 kidney transplants were performed during the study period; 132 patients did not meet inclusion criteria. The mean age was 52 years, 41% were female, 57% were black, and 19% were CMV D + /R -. The odds of being CMV high-risk increased by 6% each year (OR 1.06, 1.02-1.10 p = 0.003); 48% of the variability associated with CMV serostatus was explained by transplant year (R2 = 0.478, p = 0.002). Sequential modeling demonstrated that CMV D + /R - serostatus was a substantial risk factor for CMV infection (HR 5.7, 4.5-7.3), CMV disease (HR 8.4, 3.9-18.0), CMV resistance (HR 17.9, 3.8-84.2), CMV refractory infection (HR 35, 4-280), late CMV infection (HR 12.0, 8.3-17.1), acute rejection, and hospitalization for opportunistic infections. Secular trend analysis demonstrated that CMV infections, CMV resistance, and late CMV increased in incidence since 2012. The risks of CMV resistance and late infection was significantly influenced by D + /R - serostatus and transplant year, indicating that this risk is worsening over time.Conclusion: The CMV D + /R - serostatus remains the single most important risk factor for CMV infection, disease, resistance, refractory infection, and late CMV, which appears to be increasing in magnitude.","PeriodicalId":14454,"journal":{"name":"International Urology and Nephrology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143189295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Comprehensive data collection encompassed demographic information, intraoperative and postoperative outcomes, and disease-free survival.Results: The analysis revealed that percutaneous laser ablation offered modest benefits over radical nephroureterectomy in terms of reduced surgical duration (P < 0.01) and shorter hospital stays (P = 0.03). However, in evaluating long-term oncologic outcomes, percutaneous laser ablation did not achieve parity with radical nephroureterectomy.

Selenium levels are typically lower in HD individuals. Selenium deficiency has been identified as a risk factor for oxidative stress and inflammatory responses. Therefore, we intended to perform a meta-analysis to assess the impact of selenium supplementation on HD patients.Methods: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the effect of selenium supplementation on HD patients until September 31, 2024. The data analysis was conducted using Stata15.0 software.Results: Seven RCTs, with 2080 participants, were finally included, with 1029 in the selenium group and 1051 in the control group. The meta-analysis unraveled no statistically significant impact of selenium supplementation on body mass index (SMD = 0.15, 95% CI (- 0.20, 0.49), triglyceride [(SMD = - 0.02, 95% CI (- 0.44, 0.41)], total cholesterol [(SMD = - 0.18, 95%CI (- 0.41, 0.05)], low-density lipoprotein [(SMD = - 0.37, 95% CI (- 1.04, 0.31)], high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [(SMD = 0.15, 95% CI (- 0.54, 0.84)], C-reactive protein [(SMD = - 0.10, 95% CI (- 0.46, 0.27)], ferritin [(SMD = - 0.02, 95% CI (- 0.29, 0.26)], Hx-C reactive protein [(SMD = 0.00, 95% CI (- 1.02, 1.03)], and hemoglobin [(SMD = 0.01, 95% CI (- 0.57,0.59)].

The log rank test and Cox regression analyses were performed to identify factors that predict the recurrence and survival of these \"highest risk\" group of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).Results: With a median follow-up of 46.0 months (range 2-151), the 5-year overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), recurrence-free survival (RFS) and progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 65%, 78%, 28% and 56% after trans-urethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT), and 35%, 48%, 35% and 35% after radical cystectomy (RC), respectively.
