Objective: To evaluate the correlation between residual renal function and\nhypertension in regular haemodialysis patients. Background: Initiating\nchronic dialysis treatment gives end-stage renal disease patients a new\nlease on life. However, the annual mortality rate .........................
Background: Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is the first choice for the treatment of benign prostatic\nhyperplasia. However, Transurethral split of prostate (TUSP) also seems to have clear clinical efficacy and clinical\npromotion value. To better clarify the potential and limitations of this treatment of prostate hyperplasia. This study\nobjectively evaluated the clinical efficacy and safety of TUSP.\nMethods: The Pubmed, Cochrane Library, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Database for\nChinese Technical Periodicals (VIP), Wanfang (Wanfang data), and SinoMed databases were searched for relevant\nstudies. We then used Revman Manager 5.3 to perform a meta-analysis of all randomized controlled trials that\nevaluated the efficacy and safety of TUSP versus.......................
Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to determine the clinical effectiveness,\nsafety and cost-effectiveness of Single Incision needleless Mini-Slings compared\nwith tension-free Standard Mid-urethral Sling in the surgical management\nof female stress urinary incontinence, but with less side effects. Methods:\nThe study will be conducted in Zagazig University Hospitals. From\n2018 to Sept. 2019, 40 cases were enrolled in the study and were randomized\nby envelope technique at the time of surgery to either a trans-obturator vaginal\ntape (TOT) or Needleless anti-incontinence procedure. The patients will\nbe divided into 2 groups: Group 1 patient treated by standard sling (TOT).\nGroup 2 those treated by mini-sling. Parameters in perioperative period such\nas operating time, intraoperative hemorrhage volume, length of stay in hospital,\nintraoperative complications, and postoperative pain of each patient\nwere recorded. The sample size was calculated to be 40 cases (20 cases will be\ntreated by standard slings, 20 case will be treated by mini-sling). Results: A\ntotal of 40 patients assessed for eligibility were randomized into Needleless\ngroups. There were no significant differences.....................
Background: Stent placement before retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) can theoretically expand the ureter to\nimprove access and remove stones. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of preoperative ureteral\nstenting on access and surgery.\nMethods: We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent RIRS between January 2010 and December 2016 at\nmultiple centers. The patients were divided into two groups based on whether or not a ureteral stent was inserted\npreoperatively. The characteristics of the stone (size, number, density, and location), the success rate of the access\nsheath placement, perioperative complications, operative times, hospitalization periods, the period for which the\nstents remained, postoperative urinary tract infection rates, stone-free rates, and additional treatment rates were\nanalyzed.\nResults: Overall, 727 patients were included in the study (113 were pre-stented and 614 were non-stented). The\nmedian stone size......................
Objective: Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a serious early complication that\nsignificantly increases the mortality rate in patients with acute pancreatitis\n(AP). AKI can improve with an early diagnosis and appropriate treatment\nprotocols. We aimed to evaluate the role............................
