This issue of the international urology journal covers topics including the management of lower pole kidney stones (1–2 cm), advances in high-risk localized muscle-invasive bladder cancer, ambulatory versus inpatient percutaneous nephrolithotomy, and the real-world use of androgen-deprivation therapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. A key clinical dilemma addresses the incidental small renal mass found in a solitary kidney.
A comprehensive guide covering the biology of parasites, focusing on taxonomy (Protozoa, Platyhelminths, Nematodes, Arthropods), host-parasite associations, transmission dynamics, immune responses to infection, pathology mechanisms, diagnostic identification, and the economic and potential beneficial uses of parasitic organisms.
This study aimed to determine the diagnostic role of systemic inflammatory indices (SII, PIV, SIRI, NLR, PLR, MLR) in infants with moderate-to-severe Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) and the effect of hypothermia treatment. The HIE group showed significantly higher levels of NLR, SII, PIV, and SIRI compared to controls. These indices significantly decreased after therapeutic hypothermia. An elevated NLR level above 1.12 was found to be an independent predictor for HIE.
