Article Abstract
Urosepsis after upper urinary tract endoscopic lithotripsy (UUTEL) may cause uroseptic shock with high mortality, which can be prevented if early diagnosis and timely intervention are implemented with help of a diagnostic protein panel. The plasma of five rabbits of uroseptic shock and five controls was subjected to exploratory proteomics to search biomarker candidates from proteomic profiles related to uroseptic shock. Then, plasma from 21 nonsepsis and 20 urosepsis patients according to European diagnostic criteria of sepsis was enrolled in the validation study via targeted proteomics. Changes in a massive number of plasma proteins, mainly enriched in immune regulation, coagulation, structural repair, and transport activity, were observed in the rabbit model of septic shock. Fifteen proteins were identified as differential expression proteins between sepsis and nonsepsis patients. A diagnostic model composed of three proteins lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP), clusterin (CLU), and vascular cell adhesion protein 1 (VCAM1) was developed for the early detection (2 hours postoperatively) of urosepsis after UUTEL, with a high area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of 0.921. In conclusion, changes in the proteomic profile may reflect the underlying biological mechanisms during the development of urosepsis and produce diagnostic biomarkers for the early detection of urosepsis after UUTEL.

Predictive value of procalcitonin for the therapeutic response of patients with uroseptic shock: a retrospective case-control study.
Am J Transl Res
February 2025
Intensive Care Unit, Liyang People's Hospital Liyang 213300, Jiangsu, China.
Objectives: To evaluate the predictive value of procalcitonin (PCT) in assessing the therapeutic response of patients with uroseptic shock.
Methods: This retrospective case-control study included 220 patients treated for uroseptic shock at Liyang People's Hospital between January 2018 and December 2023. Patients were classified into high-risk (HR) (n = 116) and low-risk (LR) (n = 104) groups based on their Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores after 14 days of treatment.

Ningxia Key Laboratory of Clinical and Pathogenic Microbiology, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University, Yinchuan, People's Republic of China.
Objectives: To explore correlations between biomarker indices and urosepsis severity, and investigate the prevalence of drug-resistant Escherichia coli in a patient population at the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University in the Ningxia region of China.
Methods: Patients with urinary tract infection-associated sepsis were categorized into three groups: a septic non-shock group (NSSPU), a septic shock group (USG), and a control group with non-sepsis cases of simple urinary tract infections (CG). The study analyzed various biomarkers, including the percentage of neutrophils (N%), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and lactate (La), to assess their predictive value for urogenital sepsis severity.
Analysis of uroseptic shock after ureteroscopy for ureteral calculi during pregnancy: a case report.

Department of Urology, The Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University, No. 149 Road Dalian, Huichuan District, Zunyi, China.
Background: Uroseptic shock secondary to ureteral calculi during pregnancy is rare. It is characterized by rapid onset, rapid progression, aggressive disease, limited treatment, poor prognosis, and a mortality rate higher than 20% with improper or delayed management. A clear diagnosis is made based on typical clinical symptoms and abdominal ultrasound, often requiring combined multidisciplinary treatment and the simultaneous release of the obstruction.

This study aimed to present a novel surgical technique of percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with antegrade flexible ureteroscopy which is named 'Through-through' approach.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 68 patients with complex renal calculi who underwent combined PNL and flexible ureteroscopy surgery using 'Through-through' approach at our center between August 2019 and December 2021.
Novel care bundle of established basic and practical approaches greatly reduces urinary tract infections in nursing facility residents without indwelling catheters.
Am J Infect Control

Gouverneur Health, New York City Health and Hospitals, New York, NY.
Background: Residents in nursing facilities (NFs) are at greater risk of developing urinary tract infections (UTIs) with higher hospitalizations and costs than people living in communities. These residents also have increased likelihood of uroseptic shock and death. The objective of the study was to prevent UTIs and to reduce UTI-associated costs among NF residents.
