The primary objective of urolithiasis therapy is complete stone removal and highest stone-clearance rates possible to minimize recurrence. A novel approach that employs a magnetic suspension and a magnetic probe for the passive collection and removal of small residual fragments was developed. This study assessed the feasibility of this system in porcine models.

Methods: Baseline characteristics were collected from eight centers. Based on the patients' preoperative status and comorbidities, frailty was assessed by the mFI-5 and mFI-11.
Article Synopsis
- The study highlights the challenges of transitional care in pediatric neurosurgery, emphasizing the need for an organized approach due to the unique requirements of these patients compared to adults.
- Researchers analyzed the transition experiences of patients aged 16 to 30 who had undergone pediatric neurosurgery, using surveys to gather data from patients and their parents.
- Results indicated that satisfaction levels varied depending on the type of transition model used, with the continued caregiver and specialized clinic models receiving the highest approval from both patients and parents.
Unlabelled: Group III hybrid histidine kinases are fungal-specific proteins and part of the multistep phosphorelay, representing the initial part of the high osmolarity glycerol (HOG) pathway. TcsC, the corresponding kinase in was expected to be a cytosolic protein but is targeted to the nucleus. Activation of TcsC by the antifungal fludioxonil has lethal consequences for the fungus.
