Evaluation of perioperative outcomes associated with the flexible ureterorenoscopy with flexible and navigable suction ureteral access sheath and reused disposable scopes: a prospective multicentre study by the European Association of Urology and European Association of Urology Section of Endourology

Background: With the increasing adoption of single-use ureteroscopes in retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS), concerns regarding cost and environmental sustainability have prompted interest in their reuse, giving rise to the concept of reused disposable scopes (RDS). This study evaluates the impact of RDS on perioperative outcomes in RIRS when used in conjunction with novel technologies such as the flexible and navigable suction access sheath (FANS). Methods: This prospective multicenter stud...

Smart Lithotripsy: Lasers, Energy Sources and Efficiency

Purpose of review: To examine the evidence on contemporary lasers and provide a practical framework for platform selection, parameter optimization, and thermal safety based on the principles of smart lithotripsy. Recent findings: Holmium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Ho:YAG) remains versatile for fragmentation and dusting, whereas thulium fiber laser (TFL) provides efficient fine-particle dusting with limited retropulsion. Pulsed thulium: YAG (p-Tm:YAG) shows an intermediate profile between Ho:YA...

Assessing the trifecta of enucleation using Magneto laser energy on different prostate volumes in real world practice, an EAU-endourology and AUSET collaboration

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the real-world trifecta efficacy of the Magneto laser technology used in endoscopic enucleation of the prostate (EEP), defined by three criteria: absence of Clavien-Dindo grade II, III, or IV complications within the first 30 days postoperatively; maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) > 15 ml/sec within 3 months; and the absence of stress urinary incontinence beyond the 3-month follow-up period. Methods: This study included any patient fit for EEP f...

Forecasting of energy commodity prices across macroeconomic periods: a comparative analysis using alternative models

This study aims to assess and compare the predictive performance of advanced forecasting approaches, including stochastic models, like the Geometric Brownian Motion (GBM), Fractional Brownian Motion (FBM), and Brownian Bridge (BB), as well as a Machine Learning (ML) model, the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), in predicting the price movements of energy commodities such as Brent oil, crude oil, gas oil, heating oil, and natural gas across eight geopolitical and macroeconomic events. To reassess ...

Robust Networked MPC for Quadrotor Trajectory Tracking with Adaptive Horizon and Delay Estimation

This paper presents a networked control architecture for quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operating under communication constraints, specifically non deterministic delays and stochastic packet loss. To mitigate the adverse effects of network induced latencies in both wired and wireless channels, a model predictive control (MPC) framework leveraging a buffering mechanism is proposed. The proposed framework combines packetized predictive control through command buffering, online delay ...
