BACKGROUND
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystal retention on the renal tubular epithelium is a key step in urolithiasis. Phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure may facilitate crystal-cell adhesion, but the upstream signaling mechanisms and the relative contributions of impaired inward PS flipping versus outward PS redistribution r...

Bladder cancer is characterized by redox adaptation and metabolic plasticity, but the mechanisms linking these processes remain incompletely understood. Integrating bulk, single-cell, and spatial transcriptomic analyses, we identified PRDX1 as a malignant epithelial cell-associated factor linked to adverse outcome. Gen...

Ischemia management and vascular control remain central to robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN), yet the development and knowledge structure of this research field have not been systematically characterized. We performed a bibliometric and knowledge-mapping analysis of English-language articles and reviews retriev...

Increasing publication activity in robot-assisted living donor nephrectomy research has entered a more active phase of clinical investigation, but increasing publication activity does not itself demonstrate stronger evidence, clinical maturity, or universal superiority over laparoscopy.

To characterize how the evidence base has developed, English-language RASP publications indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection through 18 June 2026 were mapped to indicate publication growth, contributor and collaboration patterns, citation foundations, and changing research themes.

Overall, the field has progressed from demonstrating procedural feasibility toward evaluating patient-centered and longer-term clinical value, however, the continued prominence of “single institution” research and the concentration of output within expert centers may limit the generalizability of the evidence.
