To describe stone-free rates and complications of ureteroscopic treatment for impacted compared with non-impacted ureteral stones evaluate predictive variables impaction. The Clinical Research Office the Endourological Society prospectively collected 1 consecutive year data from 114 centers worldwide. Patients eligible inclusion were patients treated ureteroscopy stones. Patient characteristics, details, outcomes regard to stone Logistic regression analyses conducted explore impaction...

The Amsterdam Growth and Health Longitudinal Study (AGHLS) is a unique, multidisciplinary cohort study that was initially set up to examine growth health among teenagers. Throughout the years, AGHLS has aimed answer research questions dealing with relationships between (natural) development of anthropometry, lifestyle from adolescence into adulthood. specifically focuses on anthropometrics, physical activity fitness, cardiovascular disease risk, lifestyle, musculoskeletal health,...

The traditional approach for identifying subjects at risk from cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is to determine the extent of clustering biological factors adjusted lifestyle. Recently, markers endothelial dysfunction and low grade inflammation, including high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), soluble intercellular adhesion molecules (sICAM), vascular (sVCAM), have been included in detection individuals. However, relationship these novel biomarkers with CVD adolescents remains unclear....

This study presents a comparison of the international experience with ipsilateral and bilateral ureteroscopy for multiple, ureteral renal stones vs single stone treatment. Patient treatment characteristics outcomes were compared.The CROES (Clinical Research Office Endourological Society) Ureteroscopy Global Study includes 114 centers in 32 countries. Patients undergoing ureteroscopy, multiple examined from January 2010 to October 2012. Intraoperative postoperative identified each patient....

Summary Sleep and sleep disorders are related to cardiovascular disease, microvascular function is an early disease marker. Therefore, the relationship of (measured in quality duration) with was examined healthy adults. assessed validated Wake Experience List ( SWEL ) questionnaire. Duration self‐reported additional question. Microvascular measured using nailfold capillaroscopy. Linear regression analyses were used examine between function. Potential confounders included physical activity,...

obesity-related microvascular dysfunction, including alterations in rhythmic changes vascular diameter, so-called 'vasomotion', may be important the clustering of obesity with other cardiovascular risk factors. Adipokines have been suggested to play a role dysfunction. Alterations vasomotion found using extreme body mass index (BMI) phenotypes. Whether these can translated general population is unknown. The aim was retrospectively investigate relationships between BMI, and adipokines...

Although body fat and distribution are known to be related cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), it is unknown whether specific 30-year developmental patterns of associated with CVDs. This study examines the existence distinct total measured by sum four skinfolds (S4SFs) skinfold thickness ratio (SFratio), relates these micro- macrovascular functions. In 2006, 259 apparently healthy subjects were examined on functions, using video microscopy carotid ultrasound sonography. Body fat, both S4SFs...

Homocysteine is an independent predictor of cardiovascular risk. The mechanisms underlying this link are not fully elucidated. Whereas the role vascular dysfunction in conduit arteries extensively studied, microcirculation relationship largely unexplored. We assessed between homocysteine levels and microvascular structure function a healthy, population-based cohort.We cross-sectionally studied 260 participants (aged 42 years, 47% men) Amsterdam Growth Health Longitudinal Study.
