Filter by:The aim of this study will be to assess the effectiveness of monitored vit D supplementation in a population of preterm infants and to identify whether the proper vit D supplementation in preterm infants can reduce the incidence of neonatal sepsis and incidence of metabolic bone disease.
Using color doppler U/S, Abdominal U/S and radioisotope to evaluate changes of renal morphology, function and doppler parameters post Percutaneous nephrolithotomy
The goal of this observational study is to developing an image-based artificial intelligence software that can automatically interpret the types and sizes of crystals in urine. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Allowing healthcare professionals to input urine images and receive real-time reading results on crystal types and sizes. - This aims to provide a faster, more objective, and accurate analysis of crystals. We anticipate delivering an image AI software suitable for practical applications, promoting the automation and accuracy of urine crystal analysis.
This prospective randomized comparative study was done at Helwan University Hospital. It was conducted on 120 patients with unilateral pelvic renal stones from 1.5 to 3 cm in largest diameter who was admitted through duration to compare the two procedures differences in terms of complications, analgesic use, hospital stay, operational time, and stone-free rates.
The goal of this non-inferiority randomized controlled trial: is to test the hypothesis that the that there is no additional benefit from a longer course (7 days) versus a shorter course (2 days) of pre-operative antibiotics in patients with moderate to high risk of infection undergoing ureteroscopy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Determine the safety and efficacy of a short course (2 days) as compared to a long course (7 days) 2. Identify secondary predictors of post-operative infectious complications
There is a global increase in the prevalence of urolithiasis in children attributed to lifestyle changes, dietary habits, climate changes, childhood obesity, and the wider availability of ultrasonography. The rising incidence of the disease with its recurrent nature emphasizes the need for minimally invasive therapeutic options. Patients in whom RIRS has been performed in the last four years with increasing experience will be presented, and complications, stone-free rates, and technical details will be discussed. This retrospective Cohort study included children who underwent RIRS. Medical history, serum electrolytes, midstream urine culture, urinalysis, serum creatinine, complete blood count, and coagulation assessments were performed preoperatively. Ultrasonography (USG) was performed three months, 6 months, and 1 year after the procedures to evaluate stone recurrence and hydronephrosis. The investigators analyzed the stone-free rate ,complications, and the conversion to open procedure
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 the study is to compare the post-operative analgesic effect of USG unilateral External oblique intercostal (EOI) block with Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) for after percutaneous Nephrolithotomy with a hypothesis that both External oblique intercostal fascial plane block and Erector spinae plane block are effective in providing postoperative analgesia.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the flexible ureteroscope (FURS) technique with and without ureteral access sheath (UAS).
The study has been conducted in Urology department at Kafrelsheikh University Hospital between March 2022 to March 2023. informed consent was taken from eligible patients and were randomized into three groups, Group A :Flexible ureteroscope (F-URS) group underwent holmium laser lithotripsy using flexible ureteroscopy (Boston® scientific (lithovue) while, Group B : extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) group underwent electromagnetic extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (STORZ® MEDICAL Modulith SLX-F2 FD21, Germany) .Group C : Mini perc group underwent holmium laser lithotripsy using Karl® Storz MIP set.
