Innovative approaches to large lower calyceal stones (10-20 mm): evaluating modified T-tilt position and lower calyx hydrodilatation techniques in flexible ureteroscopy versus hydrodilatation alone: prospective randomized controlled study.

Background: Managing lower calyceal stones poses significant challenges. Flexible ureteroscopy and laser lithotripsy (FURSL) are standard techniques for treating large stones (10-20 mm).
Objective: This study evaluates the role of the T-tilt position (45-degree Trendelenburg with a 45-degree lateral tilt against the side of the stone) and hydrodilatation of the lower calyx with 50 cc saline injection as needed in optimizing stone-free rates and safety during FURSL for lower calyceal stones.

Background: Effects of upper facial aging can present as static forehead and periorbital rhytids as well as soft tissue volume loss. The latter can prompt in conjunct with bony changes of the calvaria eyebrow and eyelid ptosis. Injection-based treatments can yield positive outcomes but are not free of procedural risks.

Division of Cardiology, Osaka Rosai Hospital, Osaka, Japan.
Aims: Dapagliflozin (DAPA), a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor, has been shown to reduce cardiovascular mortality among patients with chronic heart failure. We aimed to evaluate the impact on a worsening renal function (WRF) by adding DAPA as compared to standard decongestive therapy with loop diuretics alone.
Methods And Results: We enrolled 114 consecutive acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of less than 50%.
Change in glucose, insulin and serum lipids due to ultra-processed food consumption in children with obesity.

While the association between ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption and chronic non-communicable diseases in adults is well-established, its relationship with serum markers of chronic diseases in children remains underexplored. This research investigates changes in serum markers in children with obesity during a trial aimed at reducing UPF consumption. The study is a prospective cohort, based on a parallel randomized controlled trial conducted between August 2018 and February 2020, with children aged 7-12 years.

Shortening treatment time with moderately hypofractionated radiotherapy benefits patients by reducing inconvenience and costs, but its use in the definitive treatment of unresectable Stage 3 non-small cell lung cancer is controversial due to lack of level one evidence and toxicity concerns. Pivotal systemic therapy trials utilize conventionally fractionated chemoradiation at 2 Gy per fraction given over 6 weeks. In practice, 4 weeks of chemoradiation at 2.
