The purpose of this study was to determine the plausibility and utility of utilizing a modified SOFA (mSOFA) score for predicting uroseptic shock after mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy. A cohort of 707 patients who received mini-PCNL from August 2019 to December 2020 was retrospectively evaluated. The area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was used to compare the predictive value of septic shock between mSOFA, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and qSOFA. Among 707 patients, 24 patients experienced uroseptic shock after mini-PCNL. Compared with the no uroseptic shock group, the proportion of females and rates of preoperative urine culture, renal pelvis urine culture and stone culture positivity were higher in the uroseptic shock group, with high levels of preoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) and postoperative procalcitonin (PCT). In the uroseptic shock group, the mSOFA score increased by two or more points in 83.3%; 79.2% had at least two SIRS criteria, and 100% had a qSOFA score of at least one point. mSOFA score (AUROC = 0.866, 95% CI: 0.779-0.954) exhibited greater discrimination for uroseptic shock after PCNL than SIRS (AUROC = 0.838, 95% CI: 0.742-0.943) and qSOFA (AUROC = 0.851, 95% CI: 0.811-0.892). In conclusion, the predictive value of the modified SOFA score for uroseptic shock after mini-PCNL was greater than that of the qSOFA score or SIRS.

Objectives: To explore correlations between biomarker indices and urosepsis severity, and investigate the prevalence of drug-resistant Escherichia coli in a patient population at the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University in the Ningxia region of China.
Methods: Patients with urinary tract infection-associated sepsis were categorized into three groups: a septic non-shock group (NSSPU), a septic shock group (USG), and a control group with non-sepsis cases of simple urinary tract infections (CG). The study analyzed various biomarkers, including the percentage of neutrophils (N%), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and lactate (La), to assess their predictive value for urogenital sepsis severity.

Background: Uroseptic shock secondary to ureteral calculi during pregnancy is rare. It is characterized by rapid onset, rapid progression, aggressive disease, limited treatment, poor prognosis, and a mortality rate higher than 20% with improper or delayed management. A clear diagnosis is made based on typical clinical symptoms and abdominal ultrasound, often requiring combined multidisciplinary treatment and the simultaneous release of the obstruction.

This study aimed to present a novel surgical technique of percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with antegrade flexible ureteroscopy which is named 'Through-through' approach.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 68 patients with complex renal calculi who underwent combined PNL and flexible ureteroscopy surgery using 'Through-through' approach at our center between August 2019 and December 2021.

Background: Residents in nursing facilities (NFs) are at greater risk of developing urinary tract infections (UTIs) with higher hospitalizations and costs than people living in communities. These residents also have increased likelihood of uroseptic shock and death. The objective of the study was to prevent UTIs and to reduce UTI-associated costs among NF residents.
