OBJECTIVE: We seek to identify the differentially expressed miRNAs in the clear cell subtype
(ccRCC) of kidney cancer. DESIGN AND METHODS: We performed a miRNA microarray …

PURPOSE: Renal cell carcinoma is the most common neoplasm of the adult kidney.
Currently to our knowledge there are no biomarkers for diagnostic, prognostic or predictive …

PURPOSE: miRNAs are small, nonprotein coding RNAs that are differentially expressed in
many malignancies. We previously identified 80 miRNAs that are dysregulated in clear cell …

There are no serum biomarkers for the accurate diagnosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
Diagnosis and decision of nephrectomy rely on imaging which is not always …

Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most treatment-resistant malignancies,
and patients have a dismal prognosis, with a <10% five-year survival rate. The identification of …

Patient-controlled sedation (PCS) has been used for extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL)
because it allows for rapid individualized titration of anesthetics. Because of its …

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common neoplasm in the adult kidney. Unfortunately,
there are currently no biomarkers for the diagnosis of RCC. In addition to early detection, …

Metastasis results in most of the cancer deaths in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate many important cell functions and play important roles in tumor …

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for 3% of all adult malignancies and currently no
diagnostic marker exists. Kallikrein-related peptidases (KLKs) have been implicated in numerous …

Intravesical alum irrigation is the safest and most effective method of treatment for intractable
hematuria. Systemic absorption is reported to be minimal and there have been no reported …
