Polish validation of the wisconsin stone quality of life questionnaire (POL-WISQoL).

Purpose: Urolithiasis significantly affects patient quality of life, yet the global standard of care predominantly focuses on achieving a stone free status, often ignoring patient reported outcomes. Currently, there are no specific measures available to assess the quality of life in the Polish population suffering from kidney stones. Therefore, this study aimed to develop and validate the Polish version of the Wisconsin Stone Quality of Life Questionnaire.

Application of nitroxoline in urologic oncology - a review of evidence.

The persistence of high incidence and mortality rates associated with urologic cancers underscores the urgent need for effective and safe treatments. Conventional chemotherapy regimens are often limited by their high toxicity, the cancer's drug resistance, and the challenge of managing independently evolving multifocal spread. In this context, a repurposing strategy is particularly enticing.

Map of physical interactions between extracellular domains of Arabidopsis leucine-rich repeat receptor kinases.

Plants use surface receptors to perceive information about many aspects of their local environment. These receptors physically interact to form both steady state and signalling competent complexes. The signalling events downstream of receptor activation impact both plant developmental and immune responses.

Publisher Correction: An extracellular network of Arabidopsis leucine-rich repeat receptor kinases.

In this Letter, an incorrect version of the Supplementary Information file was inadvertently used, which contained several errors. The details of references 59-65 were missing from the end of the Supplementary Discussion section on page 4. In addition, the section 'Text 3.

Spatial specificity of auxin responses coordinates wood formation.

Spatial organization of signalling events of the phytohormone auxin is fundamental for maintaining a dynamic transition from plant stem cells to differentiated descendants. The cambium, the stem cell niche mediating wood formation, fundamentally depends on auxin signalling but its exact role and spatial organization is obscure. Here we show that, while auxin signalling levels increase in differentiating cambium descendants, a moderate level of signalling in cambial stem cells is essential for cambium activity.
