ABSTRACT   The aim of this research is to determine the Bio physiological study on urolithiasis by diagnostic techniques and chemical composition in Balochistan, Pakistan. Study is designed to identify the Urolithiasis by using imaging techniquesThe urinary tract (UT) is complex system to conduct and perform excretory function in the body. It is divided into two parts upper urinary tract (UUT) and lower urinary tract (LUT). The UUT formed by the kidneys and ureters, while lower LUT associated with urinary bladder and urethra. The persistent flow of urine from upper urinary tract and lower urinary tract plays important role for the excretion of urine and cleansing of urinary tract Usually the primary function of the kidneys is filtration of blood for the removal of urinary system through urination, the lower parts of the urinary tract is the collection, storage, transportation and drain out urine from body. Moreover, urinary tract ensures the removal of products after metabolism and excretion of toxic products produced by both kidneys and thus help in maintaining homeostasis like water, electrolytes, red blood cells, leucocytes, calcium and blood pressure.

Primary functions of kidneys to filter the blood by its cells called nephrons, products after metabolism and toxics produced by kidneys upper Urinary tract;  and stored in Lower Urinary tract; this helps the body for balance of, electrolytes, water, RBCs, leukocytes, ca and blood pressure. If the renal system not work properly it may cause some complications like kidney stones, electrolytes imbalance, which leads to different complications some time may leads to kidney failure .it also effects on blood cells, if kidneys not work properly our body retains water and toxics not excreted form blood steam, so patient may leads to death. The prevalence of kidney diseases is significantly increasing in pediatric population, that is   may be due to life style changes i.e. diet changes, environmental changes. .

Functionally, the urogenital system can be divided into two completely different components : urinary system and genital system. However, embryologically and anatomically, the two are closely related. Both originate from a single mesodermal ridge (intermediate mesoderm) along the posterior wall of the abdominal cavity, and initially, the excretory ducts of both systems enter the same cavity, the cloaca. The urogenital system is a system consisting of the urinary system which is divided into the urinary tract and the genital system. Where the urinary system is divided into the upper and lower urinary tracts. The upper urinary tract consists of the kidneys, renal pelvis and ureters, while the lower urinary tract consists of the urinary bladder and urethra. The external genital system in men and women is different, in men it consists of the penis, testes and scrotum, while in women it consists of the vagina, uterus and ovaries. The following will describe the urogenital system in women

Both upper and lower urinary tract obstruction are prevalent in the palliative care setting. Although sometimes related to urological conditions, non-urological aetiologies are also seen. Common causes of lower urinary tract obstruction include benign prostatic hyperplasia in men, an underlying neurological condition, and advanced pelvic malignancy. In the acute setting, bladder decompression with a Foley catheter is the easiest and fastest way to resolve the problem. Common causes of upper urinary tract obstruction include nephrolithiasis and advanced malignancy. This chapter will address the evaluation and management of these common clinical issues.

Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) in multiple sclerosis (MS) is highly prevalent in adults, but has not previously been described in paediatric MS. A total of 24 consecutive children with newly diagnosed MS were prospectively assessed for bladder and bowel problems early after diagnosis. Five of 24 children (21%) showed LUTD during assessment. One of these patients did not report voiding complaints. This high prevalence of LUTD indicates that all recently diagnosed patients with paediatric MS should be evaluated early in their disease and treated for urinary problems in order to prevent potential damage to the upper urinary tract.

Haematuria is the presence of blood within the urine and is best defined as visible or non-visible, and symptomatic or non-symptomatic. Non-visible haematuria may be further classified as microscopic or dipstick, depending on the investigation used to detect it. Around 40% of patients presenting with visible haematuria will be found to have a significant underlying cause, and around 20% of patients will be found to have an underlying urological malignancy. Many younger patients will be found to have an underlying nephrological disease. The risk of significant underlying malignancy increases with the extent of haematuria (visible versus non-visible), the absence of symptoms and various patient factors (such as rising age, smoking status, and gender). As such, haematuria is an important urological symptom that requires investigation. These investigations should include clinical assessment, urinalysis, lower urinary tract endoscopy, and upper urinary tract radiological evaluation.

ABSTRACT Background: The lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) has high incidence in children with anorectal malformation (ARM) which if left untreated leads to upper tract damage. Aim: To determine role of uroflowmetry in early diagnosis of LUTD in children with ARM. Methods: This prospective study included twenty consecutive patients of ARM and every patient underwent uroflowmetry at-least 6 weeks after definitive procedure. Results: The mean age of patients was 3.015±0.86 years. Of the twenty patients, there were 12 (60%) males and 8 (40%) females; 11 (55%) were high ARM, 4 (20%) were intermediate and 5(25%) were low ARM. Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) was present in 8/20 (40%) patients but uroflowmetric abnormalities were present in 11/20 (55%) patients. Forty five percent (5/11) patients with abnormal uroflowmetry were asymptomatic and 25% (2/8) symptomatic patients had normal uroflowmetry. The incidence of uroflowmetric abnormalities was significantly higher in patients with spinal anomalies (p=0.03; χ2=4.1) and those with high ARM (p=0.004; χ2=8.1). Conclusion: Uroflowmetry is a noninvasive method that may help in early detection of neurovesical dysfunction in asymptomatic children and subsequent cystometric analysis in patients with uroflowmetric abnormalities can be done for early definitive diagnosis and prevention of upper urinary tract damage.

If determined the casuistry of diseases that affect the urinary system in dogs and cats. A retrospective study was carried out at the Veterinary Hospital of the University of San Carlos de Guatemala. It was characterizing patients with diseases of the urinary system. 1,205canine and feline medical records were evaluated in 2019. The variables breed, sex, age, pathology and geographic area were considered. The prevalence of urinary system diseases in dogs and cats in 2019 was 10.45%, 9.21% corresponding to dogs and 1.24% tocats. In both species, males had a higher frequency of urinary system disease, compared to females (dog = 58.56% and cat = 66.67%). The most common etiologies in dogs were lower urinary tract infections (24.65%), bladder urolithiasis (16.90%), and acute and chronic kidney disease (28.16%); while in cats lower urinary tract disease (100%) and kidney disease (5.26%) were the main pathologies observed. In dogs, the most affected age range was in patients older than 8 years (52.25%), while in cats it ranged from 3 to 8 years (73.34%).
