Precise perioperative risk stratification for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is essential. We developed a multimodal prognostic model integrating perioperative clinical data, radiomics, and deep learning (DL) features from baseline CT urography to improve survival prediction and guide adjuvant...

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial infections in hospitalized patients, frequently caused by Gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The increasing prevalence...

Urolithiasis, the condition of forming stones in the urinary system, is a common health problem worldwide and tends to recur. Pathophysiology includes stages such as supersaturation, nucleation, growth, aggregation, and crystal-cell interactions. Most conventional treatments have disadvantages of failing...

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) represent a significant clinical challenge in patients with urolithiasis [1], with infection rates reported between 7 and 28% of stone formers [2], increasing hospitalization duration and treatment costs substantially when complications arise. The management of these infections...

Upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC), which refers to renal pelvis cancer and ureteral cancer, is a rare malignant tumor that comprises 5% to 10% of all urothelial tumors. Based on statistics, UTUC has an incidence of approximately 2/100,000, or 2 per 100,000 of the general population [1,...
