Filter by:The true capacity for a healthy diet to improve urinary stone risk factors is not well-defined. The objective of this study is to measure the effect of adopting a healthy dietary pattern on kidney stone disease (KSD) risk. The working hypothesis is that a Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH)-style diet will improve 24-hour urine stone risk parameters. The approach to testing this hypothesis will be to randomize participants with KSD to a standardized DASH-style vs. Western-style diet for one week. The Bionutrition Unit of the Center for Clinical and Translational Science will provide all meals to participants. The rationale for this study is that by measuring the effect of a DASH-style diet on urinary stone risk parameters, a benchmark for future real-world, implementation studies will be established. Based on available evidence, this will be the first controlled diet study to assess the DASH dietary pattern for improving urinary stone risk parameters.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the safety and efficacy between RIRS with tip flexible pressure-controlling ureteral access sheath and mini percutaneous nephrolithotripsy（PCNL） for the treatment of 2-3-cm kidney stones.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of BMN 255 and to learn about the effect BMN 255 has on you and your hyperoxaluria associated with NAFLD, and compare these effects with a placebo. The primary safety objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of daily oral doses of BMN 255 in adult participants with NAFLD and hyperoxaluria. The primary efficacy objective of the study is to assess 24-hour urine oxalate levels (24-hour urine collection corrected for BSA) following daily oral doses of BMN 255 in adult participants with NAFLD and hyperoxaluria.
The aim of this study is to test the efficacy of the two long-acting thiazide-like diuretics indapamide and chlorthalidone in reducing urine supersaturation for calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate compared to the short-acting thiazide diuretic hydrochlorothiazide for the prevention of calcium-containing kidney stones.
Can Shear Wave Elastography predict the success of Shock-Wave Lithotripsy used in renal stones treatment ? A prospective study
The purpose of this study is to compare two variations of the mini-PCNL procedure using either a vacuum-assisted sheath or standard sheath which are both used for the surgical treatment of kidney stones. Both procedure types are commonly used in the treatment of kidneys stones and they have been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of stones similar in size and location to your own.
Nephrolithiasis is the most common chronic kidney condition and affecting approximately one in every 10-17 people in the world[1,2]. Flexible ureteroscopy (f-URS) has become one of the most common treatments for ureteral and renal stones with minimal complications. The development of ureteral access sheath (UAS) is a significant advance in flexible ureteroscopic management of urinary stones. The UAS has two major advantages: 1) facilitating multiple entries into the renal collecting system without causing recurrent trauma to the ureter and permit expeditious basketing of multiple stone fragments, 2) improving the irrigation with better fluid outflow, thereby reducing the renal pelvic pressure (RPP) and risk of infectious complications. The tip bendable suction ureteral access sheath (S-UAS) is a novel UAS that has good flexibility and deformability at the tip, which can passively bend (bend >90°) with the bending of f-URS and can connect to a vacuum suction device. Preliminary study showed that S-UAS can follow f-URS to cross the UPJ and into the renal pelvis and calices. S-UAS close to the stone can achieve complete stone-free status in RIRS. However, further clinical studies and comparisons with available techniques are required. This prospective, single-blinded, single-center, randomized control trial will evaluate the stone free rates, operative time, postoperative complications following RIRS with S-UAS. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to compare the clinical benefits of RIRS with S-UAS and traditional UAS.
In view of the positive results of the numerous studies conducted on forced diuresis after extra-corporeal lithotripsy, the investigators chose to evaluate forced diuresis by injection of Furosemide associated with intravenous hydration, which has never before been the subject of a specific analysis.
To identify predictors of patients postoperative readmission after PNL
This is a multi-center, prospective clinical trial to assess the effect of TFL for the lithotripsy of kidney stones.
