Tunis Med
January 2025
Department of urology, Fattouma Bourguiba Hospital, Monastir,Tunisia.
Introduction: Varicocele has a detrimental effect on testicular growth and spermatogenesis, hence the importance of its management. This management remains controversial among Tunisian urologists; diagnostic and therapeutic choices tend to vary from one urologist to another.
Aim: The aim of this survey is to evaluate the practices of Tunisian urologists regarding varicocele management compared to the latest international guidelines.
Bioinformatics-based analysis of the role of immune-related genes in acute rejection after kidney transplantation and renal cancer development.

Department of Urology, Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
Acute rejection (AR) is a common complication in the early stage after kidney transplantation. Some studies have shown that the occurrence of AR after kidney transplantation may further affect the development of tumors, and both AR and tumor development are related to immune cells and immune genes, so it is particularly important to diagnose the occurrence of AR at an early stage and to analyze the correlation between AR and tumors. In this study, we applied bioinformatics techniques for differential expression analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analysis analysis of AR patients to obtain differentially expressed genes and modular genes significantly associated with AR, respectively, so as to obtain their intersecting genes with immune-related genes; 21 intersecting genes were screened by lasso regression and Boruta algorithm to obtain the genes, and finally, the feature genes that were significantly associated with the dependent variable were further obtained by single-factor and multi-factor logistic regression.

Department of Urology and Institute of Urology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, No. 37 Guo Xue Xiang, Chengdu, Sichuan, 610041, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: This study aims to evaluate detrusor after contraction (DAC) characteristics in females with pure urodynamic stress incontinence (USI).
Methods: We examined the urodynamics database from our urodynamic study center. Urodynamic data from pure USI cases with and without DAC were compared.
Pain management in percutaneous nephrolithotomy - an approach rooted in pathophysiology.
Nat Rev Urol
January 2025
Department of Urology, Lenox Hill Hospital/Northwell Health, New York, NY, USA.
Pain related to percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is multifactorial and poorly elucidated. However, understanding the pathophysiology of pain can enable a practical approach to pain management, which can be tailored to each patient. A number of potential mechanisms underlie pain perception in PCNL, and these mechanisms can be leveraged at various points on the perioperative care pathway.
