Summary of Analyzed Papers for the Review "The Interplay Between Bacterial Biofilms, Encrustation, and Wall Shear Stress in Ureteral Stents: A Review Across Scales"

This Excel file summarizes and organizes the literature analyzed for the review paper entitled “The Interplay Between Bacterial Biofilms, Encrustation, and Wall Shear Stress in Ureteral Stents: A Review Across Scales.” The spreadsheet is divided into several thematic sheets, each focusing on a specific aspect of ureteral stent research: 1. Bacteria in the Urinary TractThis sheet summarizes studies related to bacterial species found in the urinary tract and their association with ureteral stents. It includes information on the bacteria investigated, stent materials, study aims, urological conditions, type of study, main findings, and references. 2. Materials of Ureteral StentsThis sheet compares different materials used in ureteral stents. It highlights the advantages and disadvantages of each material and includes relevant references from the literature. 3. Main PapersThis sheet contains the key papers analyzed for the review. It summarizes the bacteria studied, materials investigated, study aims, type of study, main findings, additional details, and references. 4. CoatingsThis sheet is intended to summarize studies related to ureteral stent coatings, including antimicrobial, anti-encrustation, and surface-modification strategies. 5. PRISMA CodeThis sheet is intended to document or organize the PRISMA-based literature screening process, including search strategy, inclusion/exclusion criteria, or article selection workflow.
