Characteristics of and treatment outcomes in rifampicin-intolerant patients.

Background: Rifampicin (RIF) is considered the backbone of TB treatment, but adverse effects often limit its use.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study examined patients treated for TB disease at our institution, and compared those who received RIF to those who were intolerant to RIF.

Results: A total of 829 patients were included.

Outcomes of a non-randomised audit of single pigtail suture stents in urolithiasis management of Asian patients in Singapore.

Objective: Double-J (DJ) ureteric stents are commonly placed perioperatively for semirigid or flexible ureteroscopic renal surgery. It is believed that lesser stent material within the bladder mitigates stent-related symptoms. This study aimed to evaluate the J-Fil ureteral stent, a single pigtail suture stent compared with conventional DJ stent in relation to stent symptoms in an Asian population undergoing ureterorenal intervention.

Corrigendum: Effect of high-fat and low-fat dairy products on cardiometabolic risk factors and immune function in a low birthweight swine model of diet-induced insulin resistance.
