Introduction: Although previous studies have investigated the impact of perirenal fat on chronic kidney disease (CKD), there are yet no systematic reviews and meta-analyses to investigate the association between perirenal fat and chronic kidney disease.
Methods: We searched six English electronic databases including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Ovid, Embase, and the Cochrane Library to select clinical studies that reported the relationship between perirenal fat and CKD, and the search period ranged from the establishment of the database to September 10, 2024. Two researchers independently screened the studies and ultimately compared the literature. Stata (version 16 SE; College Station, TX) software was used for statistical analysis.
Results: A total of eight articles that included 2576 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed a significant association between perirenal fat and CKD (95%CI: 0.48-0.65; P=0.00), and no heterogeneity was detected between these two groups (I2=31.06%, P=0.18).Subgroup analysis revealed that whether it is diabetic nephropathy, nephropathy caused by abnormal cardiac function, or primary CKD, perirenal fat is closely related to them.
Conclusion: The results of this systematic review and meta-analysis showed that perirenal fat thickness is closely related to CKD. Clinicians should pay attention to relevant indicators when diagnosing and treating patients with CKD.

Purpose: To develop of a novel computed tomography (CT) severity score for hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and evaluate its correlation with disease severity and adverse outcomes.
Methods: This retrospective study included 37 patients diagnosed with HFRS from January 2012 to December 2023 who had available clinical laboratory and abdominal CT data during the acute phase. The CT severity score (range 0-5) was based on perirenal fat stranding, pararenal fascia thickening, anterior pararenal space fat stranding, ascites, and pleural effusion.

A by-product is a secondary substance unintentionally produced during manufacturing and can be repurposed through recycling. In particular, by-products generated from the processing of natural materials are valuable because of their bioactive compound content, such as polyphenols and anthocyanins. Obesity is a global health issue, and medicines for obesity have side effects, such as insomnia and headaches.

This case report describes a 41-year-old woman with no significant medical history and a normal body mass index (BMI), who presented with ureterohydronephrosis due to a 5.5mm x 9mm calculus composed primarily of calcite (CaCO) at the ureterovesical junction. The kidney stone, associated with cystitis and perirenal fat infiltration, was spontaneously expelled and subsequently analyzed.

Background: Metabolic syndrome, identified by increased visceral fat accumulation, is notably linked to a heightened risk of nephrolithiasis. Despite this, the influence of the perirenal fat thickness relative to renal parenchymal thickness on kidney stones (KS) development remains ambiguous. This study investigated the clinical characteristics of perirenal fat on both the left and right sides and explored the association between the aforementioned ratio and KS.
