Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the association between lower urinary tract symptoms and polycystic ovary syndrome.
Methods: A total of 180 women were enrolled in this prospective study. Demographic data, body mass index, waist circumference, modified Ferriman-Gallwey scores, biochemical parameters, ultrasonographic findings, and maximum urinary flow rate (Q max) were analyzed. In addition, the Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory, and Bristol Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptom Scored Form questionnaires were evaluated for each subject.
Results: The mean age of patients was calculated as 23.78±3.04 years, which was similar for both groups (p=0.340). Body mass index, waist circumference, Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory, Bristol Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptom Scored Form, and modified Ferriman-Gallwey scores were significantly higher in group 2 (p<<0.001). Hyperandrogenism, lipid profile, and glucose metabolism disorders were more frequent in group 2 (p<<0.05). Bladder capacity (Q max), bladder wall thickness, and post-void residual volume values were similar in both groups (p>>0.05).
Conclusion: In our study, a close relationship was observed between polycystic ovary syndrome and lower urinary tract symptoms. In this context, we think that a detailed urinary system evaluation of women with polycystic ovary syndrome is extremely important.

Purpose: To evaluate stone free rate (SFR) predictivity of three different scoring systems in patients with kidney stones larger than 20 millimeters undergoing retrograde intrarenal surgery(RİRS).
Methods: Digital records of a total of 166 patients were reviewed retrospectively. Epidemiological characteristics (age, gender, medical history) of the patients, stone and affected kidney characteristics (size, volume, location, density, opaque, presence of urinary system anomaly, presence of stones in different calyx, number of stones, lower pole stone, renal infundibulopelvic angle (IPA), renal infundibulopelvic length (RIL), hydronephrosis), and operative characteristics (preoperative ureteral stent, operation duration, postoperative residual fragments, hospitalization time and complications were recorded.
The Ability of AST-120 to Lower the Serum Indoxyl Sulfate Level Improves Renal Outcomes and the Lipid Profile in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Animal Models of Chronic Kidney Disease: A Meta-Analysis.

The therapeutic benefit of the oral adsorbent drug AST-120 in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is related to an indoxyl sulfate (IS)-lowering action. Diabetes and dyslipidemia might worsen kidney damage in CKD. However, it is not known whether AST-120 influences lipid abnormalities as well as renal function in patients with CKD and diabetes.

Hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) is a systemic complication of an infection with Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing enterohemorrhagic , primarily leading to acute kidney injury (AKI) and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia. Although free heme has been found to aggravate renal damage in hemolytic diseases, the relevance of the heme-degrading enzyme heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1, encoded by ) in HUS has not yet been investigated. We hypothesized that HO-1 also important in acute phase responses in damage and inflammation, contributes to renal pathogenesis in HUS.

Employing advanced machine learning models, we aim to identify biomarkers for urolithiasis from 24-h metabolic urinary abnormalities and study their associations with urinary stone diseases. We retrospectively recruited 468 patients at Peking Union Medical College Hospital who were diagnosed with urinary stone disease, including renal, ureteral, and multiple location stones, and had undergone a 24-h urine metabolic evaluation. We applied machine learning methods to identify biomarkers of urolithiasis from the urinary metabolite profiles.

Background: Lupus podocytopathy (LP) is a non-immune complex-mediated glomerular lesion in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), characterized by the diffuse effacement of podocyte processes without immune complex deposition or with only mesangial immune complex deposition. LP is a rare cause of nephrotic syndrome in SLE patients with implications for prognosis and treatment.
Case Report: We present the case of a 28-year-old woman with a medical history of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) who presented with lower limb edema, dyspnea, hypercholesterolemia, with nephrotic range proteinuria, without acute kidney injury, and laboratory findings compatible with auto-immune hemolytic anemia.
