Introduction: Treatment of de novo vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) into the transplanted kidney constitutes a clinical challenge. Herein, we present our data on patients who underwent endoscopic subureteric injection for the treatment of VUR following renal transplantation (RT) in our center.
Methods: The patients who underwent endoscopic subureteric injection for VUR into the transplanted kidney after RT in our department between 2008 and 2023 were reviewed retrospectively.

Background: The demand for aesthetic treatments targeting the middle and lower face is on the rise, especially because of changes in appearance associated with aging.
Aim: This study aimed to assess the use of a hybrid filler for sculpting and contouring of the chin, jaw, and malar region.
Methods And Materials: A retrospective analysis was performed on patients who underwent jaw and chin contouring and cheek augmentation using a hybrid filler (hyaluronic acid and dextranomer).

Purpose: This study evaluated the outcome of pediatric patients with primary vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and compared of the treatments between continued antibiotic prophylaxis (CAP) and endoscopic injection.
Methods: The clinical data of children diagnosed with primary vesicoureteral reflux from March 2015 to June 2020 who were treated with antibiotics or endoscopic injection were reviewed. Antibiotic was the first-chosen treatment after the diagnosis of VUR in children.

This study aims to investigate the factors effective in predicting the persistence of reflux after the first subureteric transurethral injection (STING) of dextranomer/hyaluronic acid copolymer in pediatric patients with vesicoureteral reflux. The data of patients without a previous history of surgery to treat vesicoureteral reflux and who underwent STING for the first time between September 2011 and November 2020 were investigated retrospectively. After considering exclusion criteria, of 199 patients, 127 patients and 180 renal units were suitable for inclusion.

As a clinical anti-glioma agent, the therapeutic effect of carmustine (BCNU) was largely decreased because of the drug resistance mediated by O-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) and the blood-brain barrier (BBB). To overcome these obstacles, we synthesized a BCNU-loaded hypoxia/esterase dual stimulus-activated nanomicelle, abbreviated as T80-HACB/BCNU NPs. In this nano-system, Tween 80 acts as the functional coating on the surface of the micelle to facilitate transport across the BBB.
