Association between the systemic immune-inflammation index and kidney stone: A cross-sectional study of NHANES 2007-2018

Xingpeng Di et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the impact of systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) on kidney stones. The results showed that in US adults aged 20-50, high levels of SII (>330 x 10(9)/L) were positively associated with the risk of kidney stones. However, no difference was found in the elderly subgroup. This finding compensates for previous studies and further validation is needed through larger prospective cohorts.

Preferred Reporting Items for Complex Sample Survey Analysis (PRICSSA)

Andrew B. Seidenberg et al.

Summary: In order to address methodological issues in the analysis of complex sample survey data, we propose a checklist called Preferred Reporting Items for Complex Sample Survey Analysis (PRICSSA) to guide researchers in reporting their analyses. PRICSSA includes a variety of survey characteristics and essential analytic information, and also recommends making software code available to promote transparency and reproducibility.

Cellular mechanotransduction in health and diseases: from molecular mechanism to therapeutic targets

Xingpeng Di et al.

Summary: Cellular mechanotransduction plays a critical role in converting mechanical signals to biochemical signals, regulating various biological processes. While mechanical cues can trigger beneficial processes, excessive stimulation can lead to pathological conditions. The regulatory mechanisms between different mechanical cues are not fully understood, and effective therapies targeting mechanical cue-related signaling are lacking.

Physical activity can influence the relationship between ethylene oxide and risk of kidney stones: A cross-sectional study from the NHANES 2013-2016

Hua Jiang et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between ethylene oxide (EO) and kidney stones, as well as whether appropriate physical activity can influence this relationship. The results showed a nonlinear positive association between EO and kidney stones. Moderate physical activity can moderately reduce this risk, but excessive physical activity may exacerbate this relationship.

A Retrospective Cohort Study That Examined the Impact of Cannabis Consumption on Long-Term Kidney Outcomes

Joshua L. Rein et al.

Summary: The long-term effects of cannabis consumption on kidney health and disease are largely unknown. This study found that cannabis consumption did not adversely affect kidney function in participants without chronic kidney disease (CKD), but it was associated with a faster decline in kidney function among participants with CKD. Additional research is needed to further investigate the impact of cannabis use on kidney disease outcomes.

Association of Habitual Alcohol Intake With Risk of Cardiovascular Disease

Kiran J. Biddinger et al.

Summary: Observational studies have suggested cardiovascular benefits associated with light alcohol consumption, while genetic analyses have indicated a possible causal link between alcohol intake and increased cardiovascular disease risk. This cohort study using the UK Biobank examined the association of habitual alcohol intake with cardiovascular disease risk, showing that light to moderate alcohol consumption was associated with healthier lifestyle factors, but genetic predisposition to alcohol intake was associated with increased risk of hypertension and coronary artery disease across different levels of intake.

The association between recent cannabis use and urinary incontinence in women: a population-based analysis of the NHANES from 2009 to 2018

Li Xie et al.

Summary: This study investigated the association between recent cannabis use and urinary incontinence (UI) among women. The results showed that recent cannabis use was associated with an increased likelihood of stress, urge, and mixed incontinence in women. Furthermore, this association was more significant among heavy users.

Effect of Black Tea Consumption on Urinary Risk Factors for Kidney Stone Formation

Roswitha Siener et al.

Summary: The study investigated the effect of black tea consumption on urinary risk factors for kidney stone formation, and found that in normal subjects, black tea intake did not significantly increase the risk of kidney stone formation. Additionally, black tea consumption did not significantly alter 24-h urinary oxalate excretion, but led to a significant increase in urinary citrate, an important inhibitor of calcium stone formation.
