Introduction: This study aimed to examine the relationship between urolithiasis and gastric wall fat halo sign (FHS).
Materials And Method: The data of 382 patients who presented to our clinic with the complaint of flank pain were analyzed retrospectively. According to the results of noncontrast computed tomography, the patients were divided into two groups those with ureteral stones (Group 1) and those without urinary stones (Group 2). The patients' age, gender, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), cholesterol, triglyceride, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and gastric wall FHS data were evaluated.
Results: When Groups 1 and 2 were compared in terms of FHS positivity, FHS was detected in 140 (57.3%) of 244 patients in Group 1 and 24 (17%) of 138 patients in Group 2, indicating a statistically significant difference (P < .001).
Conclusion: A statistically significant relationship was found between urinary stone disease and gastric wall FHS.

Objective: Evaluation of structural features and metabolic/biochemical abnormalities of the bone tissue and relevant regulation patterns in children, residing in the radiologically contaminated territories (RCT).
Materials And Methods: Children (n = 148) aged 7 to 18 years old were involved in the study. Bone mineral density (BMD) is given in 3 grades according to the mean square deviation values, namely Grade I - standard (n = 75),Grade II - reduced (n = 45) and Grade III - very low one (n = 28).

The utilization of ureteroscopy (URS) for managing urolithiasis has garnered substantial global recognition. Nonetheless, bibliometric analyses focusing on URS in the context of urolithiasis treatment remain sparse. Therefore, we used bibliometrics to summarize the relevant literature in this field in recent years, in order to grasp the core research directions, capture the developmental frontiers, and provide valuable information for urologists to understand the research hotspots.

Urolithiasis is a common and recurrent condition in the urological spectrum. Despite various proposed mechanisms, the causal relationship between sleep traits and the risk of urolithiasis remains unclear. We used publicly available genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary data from the UK Biobank and FinnGen to perform a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis and genetic correlation analysis, evaluating the causal relationship and genetic correlation between sleep traits (chronotype, getting up in the morning, sleep duration, nap during the day, and insomnia) and urolithiasis (calculus of the kidney and ureter, and calculus of the lower urinary tract).

Kidney stones formation is a multifactorial condition and influenced, in some degree, by dietary habits. Authoritative clinical guidelines published nutritional recommendations for individuals prone to kidney stone formation. The association between dietary intake calcium to phosphorus (Ca/P) ratios and the prevalence of kidney stones is not well-established in extensive epidemiological studies.
