    Abstract During an acute medical problem, older people may lose functional independence. ADL scales are used to assess this loss of independence. The simplest and most convenient ADL scale is the Katz Index, which measures six ADL: bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, continence, and feeding. A lower ADL score indicates greater loss of functional independence. The ADL score prior to the acute medical problem (baseline) is estimated by questioning the patient or the caregivers, and this score is then compared with that on hospital admission. The ADL score should be monitored from hospital admission until discharge to allow early detection of changes in functional independence. Identifying any loss of functional independence before and during hospitalization provides information to caregivers regarding the risk of short-term mortality risk and complications, and the prognosis after hospitalization.

    Title translation Flexible ureterorenoscopy in obese patients: results from a large monocenter cohort.
    Abstract Objective: To analyze results and morbidity after flexible ureterorenoscopy (fURS) in patients with a body mass index (BMI)>30 kg/m² and to compare with results obtained in a large cohort of non-obese patients.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective monocenter study including all fURS for urinary lithiasis performed in our institution between January 2004 and December 2010. During the study period, 497 procedures were performed. Twenty-three had to be excluded because of missing data on BMI. Thus, a total of 474 procedures were included in the final analysis, 93 for obese patients (OP) and 381 for non-obese patients (NOP). Characteristics of the patients, stones and procedures were analyzed. Success was defined as clear imaging (completely stone-free) on renal tomography and ultrasonography.
    Results: Mean BMI was 33.5 ± 0.3 in OP vs 23.9 ± 0.1 kg/m² in NOP (P<0.0001). Mean stone size, location, and composition were not significantly different between groups. Technical aspects (operative time, ureteral dilatation, access sheath, monobloc extraction) were also similar in OP and NOP. The immediate (63.5% for OP vs 66.1% in NOP, P=0.62) and follow-up (65.1% for OP vs 71% in NOP, P=0.26) stone-free rate were not significantly different between the groups. For stone size<1cm, SFR raised to 77% in OP vs 83% in NOP (P=0.28). The rate of minor complications Clavien II was similar in OP (7.5%) and NOP (12%). No major complication (Clavien III or IV) was observed.
    Conclusion: fURS is a safe and efficient option for the management of urinary lithiasis in obese patients.

    Title translation Meteo-U-rology: climate impact on urological emergencies.
    Abstract Introduction and objectives: The aim of this study was to analyze the weather influence on the onset of renal colic (RC), acute urinary retention (AUR) and testicular torsion (TT).
    Materials and methods: We correlated the daily number of RC, AUR and TT cases admitted to our urology department and weather conditions between 2005 and 2009 on day-to-day basis. Eight hundred and seventy-six RC, 453 AUR and 50 TT were analyzed. Information on temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, vapor pressure, wind force, evapotranspiration and sunshine level were collected from the national meteorological office (Meteo-France) in Besançon, France. We performed a univariate and a multivariate Stepwise method in linear regression using Akaike Information Criterion.
    Results: We reported a statistically significant increased risk of renal colic at higher vapor pressure. Likewise, temperature seemed to be a risk factor for occurrence of renal colics. We determined an increased daily rate when maximal daily temperature rises above 20 Celsius degrees (P = 0.05). Furthermore, we observed a positive link between mean (P = 0.05) and minimal (P = 0.08) daily temperature and urolithiasis. Contrarywise AUR was more frequent when the mean temperature falls below zero Celsius degree. We also demonstrated a non-significant influence of temperature on TT, with 3 fold higher events during cold period. Much more mystic, we noted a higher AUR rate on new moon days, and fewer renal colic on full moon.
    Conclusions: Further investigations are necessary to understand the mechanisms underlying the relationship between urologic diseases and climate. But our findings could help us justify healthy living messages.

    Abstract: Escherichia coli endonuclease IV hydrolyses the C(3')-O-P bond 5' to a 3'-terminal base-free deoxyribose. It also hydrolyses the C(3')-O-P bond 5' to a 3'-terminal base-free 2',3'-unsaturated sugar produced by nicking 3' to an AP (apurinic or ... ...

    Abstract Escherichia coli endonuclease IV hydrolyses the C(3')-O-P bond 5' to a 3'-terminal base-free deoxyribose. It also hydrolyses the C(3')-O-P bond 5' to a 3'-terminal base-free 2',3'-unsaturated sugar produced by nicking 3' to an AP (apurinic or apyrimidinic) site by beta-elimination; this explains why the unproductive end produced by beta-elimination is converted by the enzyme into a 3'-OH end able to prime DNA synthesis. The action of E. coli endonuclease IV on an internal AP site is more complex: in a first step the C(3')-O-P bond 5' to the AP site is hydrolysed, but in a second step the 5'-terminal base-free deoxyribose 5'-phosphate is lost. This loss is due to a spontaneous beta-elimination reaction in which the enzyme plays no role. The extreme lability of the C(3')-O-P bond 3' to a 5'-terminal AP site contrasts with the relative stability of the same bond 3' to an internal AP site; in the absence of beta-elimination catalysts, at 37 degrees C the half-life of the former is about 2 h and that of the latter 200 h. The extreme lability of a 5'-terminal AP site means that, after nicking 5' to an AP site with an AP endonuclease, in principle no 5'----3' exonuclease is needed to excise the AP site: it falls off spontaneously. We have repaired DNA containing AP sites with an AP endonuclease (E. coli endonuclease IV or the chromatin AP endonuclease from rat liver), a DNA polymerase devoid of 5'----3' exonuclease activity (Klenow polymerase or rat liver DNA polymerase beta) and a DNA ligase. Catalysts of beta-elimination, such as spermine, can drastically shorten the already brief half-life of a 5'-terminal AP site; it is what very probably happens in the chromatin of eukaryotic cells. E. coli endonuclease IV also probably participates in the repair of strand breaks produced by ionizing radiations: as E. coli endonuclease VI/exonuclease III, it is a 3'-phosphoglycollatase and also a 3'-phosphatase. The 3'-phosphatase activity of E. coli endonuclease VI/exonuclease III and E. coli endonuclease IV can also be useful when the AP site has been excised by a beta delta-elimination reaction.

    Abstract The RAD6 and RAD18 genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are required for postreplicative bypass of ultraviolet (UV)-damaged DNA and for UV mutagenesis. The RAD6 encoded protein is a ubiquitin conjugating enzyme, and RAD18 encodes a protein containing a RING finger motif and a nucleotide binding motif. Rad18 can be co-immunoprecipitated with Rad6, indicating that the two proteins exist in a complex in vivo. Here, we co-overproduce the two proteins using a yeast multicopy plasmid, purify the Rad6-Rad18 complex to near homogeneity, and show that the complex is heterodimeric. The Rad6-Rad18 heterodimer has ubiquitin conjugating activity, binds single-stranded DNA, and possesses single-stranded DNA-dependent ATPase activity. The Rad6-Rad18 complex provides the first example wherein a ubiquitin conjugating activity is physically associated with DNA binding and ATPase activities provided by an associated protein factor. The co-existence of these activities should provide the complex with the ability to recognize single-stranded DNA resulting from stalling of the replication machinery at DNA damage sites and to recognize the components of the DNA replication machinery for ubiquitination by Rad6.

    Abstract The RAD6 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme required for postreplicational repair of UV-damaged DNA and for damage-induced mutagenesis. In addition, Rad6 functions in the N end rule pathway of protein degradation. Rad6 mediates its DNA repair role via its association with Rad18, whose DNA binding activity may target the Rad6-Rad18 complex to damaged sites in DNA. In its role in N end-dependent protein degradation, Rad6 interacts with the UBR1-encoded ubiquitin protein ligase (E3) enzyme. Previous studies have indicated the involvement of N-terminal and C-terminal regions of Rad6 in interactions with Ubr1. Here, we identify the regions of Rad6 and Rad18 that are involved in the dimerization of these two proteins. We show that a region of 40 amino acids towards the C terminus of Rad18 (residues 371 to 410) is sufficient for interaction with Rad6. This region of Rad18 contains a number of nonpolar residues that have been conserved in helix-loop-helix motifs of other proteins. Our studies indicate the requirement for residues 141 to 149 at the C terminus, and suggest the involvement of residues 10 to 22 at the N terminus of Rad6, in the interaction with Rad18. Each of these regions of Rad6 is indicated to form an amphipathic helix.
