To report trifecta outcomes of our "off-clamp" partial nephrectomy (PN) patients operated without main renal artery and/or any selective/superselective clamping. Between April 2008 and March 2020, 52 patients received "off-clamp" robot-assisted par...
Artificial intelligence is increasingly being adopted in medical fields to predict various outcomes. In particular, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is problematic because it often progresses to end-stage kidney disease. However, the trajectories of kidn...
We sought to identify the factors associated with deterioration of renal functions after robot-assisted radical cystectomy, and to develop a nomogram to detect the probability of progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). A retrospective review o...
BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 was divided into two subgroups by eGFR (45 mL/ min 1.73 m). There is difference in prevalence of CKD, racial differences, economic development, genetic, and environmental backgrounds between China and ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: There is poor knowledge on characteristics, comorbidities and laboratory measures associated with risk for adverse outcomes and in-hospital mortality in European Countries. We aimed at identifying baseline characteristics predisp...
BACKGROUND: Minimal literature describes the impact of hilar control on the progression to chronic kidney disease (pCKD) after robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) in solitary kidneys (SK). The aim of this study was to compare purely off-clamp (ocRPN) v...
To identify the most important factors that impact brain volume, while accounting for potential collinearity, we used a data-driven machine-learning approach. Gray Matter Volume (GMV) was derived from magnetic resonance imaging (3T, FLAIR) and adjust...
OBJECTIVE: To develop a radial basis function (RBF) neural network and investigate its performance in the estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for patients with chronic kidney disease.
Robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is increasingly applied to renal hilar tumors. The present study aims to introduce our vessel and tension-free reconstruction technique and discuss the perioperative, functional, and midterm oncologic outcom...
