We report on 79 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and analyze the urological manifestations, analytical and histopathological changes commonly encountered in this disease. The importance of repeating calcium studies in patients with recurrent calcium stone formation is underscored. The appropriate metabolic work up should be performed when elevated values are detected.

Trends in pulmonary function in patients with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome: a retrospective cohort study.
Eur Clin Respir J
January 2025
Department of Respiratory Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark.
Background: Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHD), a rare genetic disease characterized by multiple pulmonary cysts, can lead to spontaneous pneumothorax, cutaneous hamartomas, renal cysts, and renal cell cancer. The overall aim of this study was to assess clinical characteristics of patients with BHD-emphasizing on trends in pulmonary function patterns.
Methods: By use of data from electronic patient journals, we conducted a retrospective cohort study on clinical characteristics and pulmonary function tests (PFT) from patients with BHD, who were clinically followed-up in a Danish tertiary referral center for rare and interstitial lung diseases.
Sentinel role of military dogs in detecting genotoxic agents in the environment during military operations: a pilot study.
Toxicol Mech Methods
January 2025
Environmental Carcinogenesis Unit, IRCCS Ospedale Policlinico San Martino, Genoa, Italy.
During out-of-area military operations, the presence of carcinogenic and/or genotoxic agents has been reported, posing potential health risks to deployed soldiers. Military working dogs (MWDs), trained to detect explosives in the same environments as soldiers, could also serve as sentinel animals, providing valuable information on exposure to hazardous agents. These dogs can help identify environmental and potential adverse effects on their health and that of their handlers, possibly before relevant pathologies manifest.

Monkeypox (mpox), caused by mpox virus (MPXV) infection, reemerged in 2022 and still raises concerns globally. Abundant clinical data indicate that mpox is a sexually transmitted infection and that the urogenital system is the most frequently involved system in mpox, which deserves more attention. Penile lesions are the most common presentation, followed by urethritis.

Background: In renal cell carcinoma (RCC), skin metastases (SMs) occur in only 3.3% of cases and are even rarer as an initial manifestation of the disease. Although combination therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and targeted agents is the current standard of care, access to these treatments may be limited in certain regions due to cost constraints.

Department of Urology, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University. Wuhan, Hubei Province, PR China. Electronic address:
Background: Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a prevailing manifestation of acute kidney injury (AKI) with limited treatment options. TRIM44 has emerged as a possible target for treatment due to its regulatory function in inflammatory pathways.
Methods: In vivo and in vitro models were employed to ascertain the TRIM44 impact on renal IRI.
