Purpose: In 2023 the American Urological Association (AUA) in collaboration with the Society for Urodynamics, Female Pelvic Medicine & Urogenital Reconstruction (SUFU) requested an Update Literature Review (ULR) to incorporate new evidence generated since the 2020 publication of this Guideline. The resulting 2025 Guideline Amendment addresses updated recommendations to provide a clinical framework for the diagnosis, evaluation, and follow-up of microhematuria (MH).
Materials And Methods: In 2024, this Guideline was reviewed via the AUA ULR process, which identified 82 studies for full-text review that were published between December 2019 and June 7, 2024. Of those 82 studies, 23 met inclusion criteria for qualitative synthesis. The subsequent amendment is based on data released since the initial 2020 publication of this Guideline.
Results: The Panel developed evidence- and consensus-based statements based on an updated review to provide guidance on evaluation and management of MH. These updates are detailed herein.
Conclusions: This update provides several new insights, including a revised risk stratification system, updated information regarding use of urine-based tumor markers and cytology, and new guidance on diagnosis and surveillance. This Guideline will require further review as the diagnostic and treatment options in this space continue to evolve.

Department of Animal Sciences, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL 61801, USA.
Yellow mealworms (Tenebrio molitor) serve as an alternative protein source. Because the amino acid (AA) concentrations, AA digestibility, and protein quality of ingredients may vary depending on their husbandry, harvest and processing procedures, and other factors, each should be evaluated separately. The objective of this study was to measure the AA composition, AA digestibility, and protein quality of yellow mealworm-based ingredients using the precision-fed cecectomized rooster assay.

The substantial carbon footprint imparted by medical services warrants increased attention to their environmental impact. National guideline organizations such as the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommend multiple modalities for average-risk colorectal cancer (CRC) screening with varying resource intensity. The aim of this study was to quantify the environmental burden for 2 of the most used CRC screening modalities, colonoscopy and the multi-target stool DNA (mt-sDNA) test.

Hemorrhoids are a prevalent and benign anal disorder for which minimally invasive treatments are increasingly preferred. The UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence clinical guideline (2010) recommends hemorrhoidal artery ligation as a treatment option for hemorrhoidal disease. Superior rectal artery embolization (SRAE) leverages this principle by using digital subtraction angiography to precisely identify and superselectively embolize the arteries supplying the hemorrhoidal region.
