Does prior PCNL affect RIRS? A retrospective analysis of a single center data.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the results and safety of retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) in patients who have previously undergone percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).

Methods: A retrospective analysis included patients who underwent RIRS for kidney stones between August 2018 and April 2023. Group 1 comprised 396 patients who underwent primary RIRS, while Group 2 included 231 individuals who had RIRS after previous PCNL.

Prognostic Role of Long-Chain Acyl-Coenzyme A Synthetase Family Genes in Patients with Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Comprehensive Bioinformatics Analysis Confirmed with External Validation Cohorts.

Introduction: We aimed to determine the prognostic role of long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases (ACSLs) as a disease marker for kidney clear cell carcinoma (KIRC).

Patients And Methods: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data were accessed via open access LinkedOmics database for KIRC. Provisional datasets were used for analysis as previously described and gene expression quantification data were downloaded.
