Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial study is to test if patients with idiopathic calcium oxalate kidney stones have an increased absorption of dietary oxalate, which would lead to increased urinary excretion of oxalate. The study will recruit adult patients with a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones and healthy volunteers without kidney stones. Participants will - ingest fixed diets containing low and moderately high amounts of oxalate for 5 days at a time - ingest a soluble form of oxalate and sugar preparations to test gut permeability - collect urine, blood, stool and breath sample during the fixed diets and the soluble oxalate test
The purpose of the study is to assess procedural completion, the post-operative stone clearance and the safety profile following robotic mini-Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) performed with the MONARCH Platform, Urology.
The goal of this trial is to test if colonization with the gut bacteria Oxalobacter formigenes leads to a reduction in urinary oxalate excretion in patients with calcium oxalate kidney stone disease. The study will recruit adult participants with a history of calcium oxalate kidney stones who are not colonized with Oxalobacter formigenes. Participants will - ingest fixed diets containing low and moderately high amounts of oxalate for 4 days at a time - collect urine, blood and stool samples during the fixed diets - ingest a preparation of live Oxalobacter formigenes to induce colonization with Oxalobacter formigenes
This study investigates if additional basket control in helpful during retrieval of kidney stones especially those that are difficult to reach for standard baskets.
This is a randomized controlled trial which aims to compare the efficacy and safety of Thulium fiber laser (TFL) and holmium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Ho:YAG) laser ablation during the treatment of upper urinary tract stone disease with flexible ureteroscopy, demonstrating clinical superiority of TFL.
Limited literature has focused on the use of totally tubeless mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (Mini-PCNL) for the treatment of large renal stones. This Randomized Controlled trial aims to compare complication and safety of Mini-PCNL between total tubeless and tubeless Mini-PCNL.
The purpose of this study is to clarify the fundamental processes underlying behavior change, maintenance, and adherence during and after a 3-month fluid intake intervention period.
This is a single institution, single surgeon, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the Boston Scientific Lumenis Pulse 120H Moses 2.0 holmium laser versus the Olympus Soltive Superpulsed thulium fiber laser (TFL) for medium-to-large stones in the mini PCNL setting.
Detection and classification of different renal and urinary affection in patients with IBD that attended to Assist University Hospitals
The use of flexible ureteroscopy and minimally-invasive percutaneous techniques, which utilize smaller tract sizes, has been established as a way to decrease the invasiveness of procedures and improve patient outcomes compared to conventional percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and flexible mini-PCNL has emerged as a novel technique previously first as an auxiliary procedure and then as a standalone technique. This study aims to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of flexible nephoscopy in improving stone clearance compared to standard retrograde intrarenal surgery using a flexible ureteroscope.
