Emergency department utilization patterns for pediatric urinary stone patients in the United States.
J Pediatr Urol
December 2024
Department of Surgery, Division of Urology, The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Philadelphia, PA, United States; Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Informatics, University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA, United States. Electronic address:
Background: The prevalence of pediatric urolithiasis has increased rapidly, leading to more emergency department (ED) visits across the United States.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine emergency care practices for children and adolescents with urinary stones and characteristics associated with management.
Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study of the 2021 Nationwide Emergency Department Sample to identify pediatric patients (≤21 years) presenting to an ED in the United States with a primary diagnosis of urinary stone disease.
STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL BONE FEATURES IN CHILDREN RESIDING IN THE RADIOLOGICALLY CONTAMINATED TERRITORIES OF UKRAINE.
Probl Radiac Med Radiobiol
December 2024
State Institution «National Research Center of Radiation Medicine, Hematology and Oncology of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine», 53 Yuriia Illienka Str., Kyiv, 04050, Ukraine.
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).
Intrauterine device (IUD) migration completely into the abdominal cavity and half into the bladder to form a stone: a case report and mini-review.
BMC Urol
December 2024
Department of Urology II, First Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, Jilin, China.
The intrauterine device (IUD) is an important and highly effective means of contraception. Migration of the IUD, post implantation, out of the uterus is an infrequent complication, and its subsequent migration into the urinary bladder with formation of secondary bladder calculi, is even more infrequently reported. The authors report a 51 year old woman who had had her last child delivered via cesarean section 16 years ago.

December 2024
DONALD Study Center, Nutritional Epidemiology, Institute of Nutrition and Food Science, University of Bonn, Dortmund, Germany. Electronic address:
Objective: Uromodulin is the most abundant urinary protein in healthy subjects which under physiological conditions protects against kidney stone formation. Acid-base imbalances, especially states with acidic urine, increase the risk for uric acid and oxalate stones, but lower it for phosphate-containing stones. Whether habitual high acid loads and high dietary phosphorus intake (P-In) themselves may influence plasma uromodulin concentrations in the long-term is not known.

Article Synopsis
- Ureteroscopy (URS) is a common surgical method for treating urinary stones smaller than 2 cm, and the use of preoperative stenting (PS) is debated regarding its benefits and outcomes compared to not using it (NPS).
- A comprehensive analysis of 23,668 patients from various studies found that PS led to higher stone-free rates (SFR) and lower rates of complications during and after surgery, particularly when flexible URS was used.
- Overall, PS appears to improve surgical outcomes without increasing complications, suggesting a need for further research on its cost-effectiveness and impact on patient quality of life.
