    The battle between fake news and science
    (Elsevier, 2020-02) Harper, L.; Herbst, K. W.; Bagli, D.; Kaefer, M.; Beckers, G. M. A.; Fossum, M.; Kalfa, N.; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Fake news is fabricated information that mimics news media content yet lacks the editorial norms and processes that ensure accuracy and credibility [ [1] ]. This includes misinformation (misleading information) and disinformation (false information purposely spread to deceive people).

    COVID-19 and research in pediatric urology
    (Elsevier, 2021) Harper, L.; Bagli, D.; Kaefer, M.; Kalfa, N.; Beckers, G. M. A.; Nieuwhof-Leppink, A. J.; Fossum, M.; Herbst, K. W.; ESPU Research Committee; Urology, School of Medicine
    COVID-19 began in December 2019 then spread worldwide. Providers, including pediatric urologists, had to adapt their clinical processes, and many non-covid research activities were suspended. COVID-19 impacts how research is financed, performed, and published, and is itself the subject of intense research. We present current research and publications specifically related to the urinary tract and the pediatric population.

    EBM II: How to perform a literature search
    (Elsevier, 2019-05) Castagnetti, M.; Herbst, K. W.; Bagli, D.; Beckers, G. M. A.; Harper, L.; Kaefer, M.; Kalfa, N.; Fossum, M.; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    The present article is a second part related to evidence based medicine (EBM) in a series of five by the European society for paediatric urology (ESPU) research committee. It will present the different databases/search engines available to clinicians and researchers and describe strategies to focus the search to one's particular needs. Indeed, databases/search engines used and search strategy should vary according to the goal of the research. If the aim is to address a clinical problem, the search should allow to identify a small number of most pertinent articles (high specificity); if the search is for research purposes, instead, it should ensure no meaningful articles are overlooked (high sensitivity).

    The impact of COVID-19 on research
    (Elsevier, 2020-07-08) Harper, L.; Kalfa, N.; Beckers, G. M. A.; Kaefer, M.; Nieuwhof-Leppink, A. J.; Fossum, Magdalena; Herbst, K. W.; Bagli, D.; ESPU Research Committee; Urology, School of Medicine
    Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has swept across the globe causing hundreds of thousands of deaths, shutting down economies, closing borders and wreaking havoc on an unprecedented scale. It has strained healthcare services and personnel to the brink in many regions and will certainly deeply mark medical research both in the short and long-term.

    The orchestration of gene expression and the editing role of microRNA
    (Elsevier, 2023-06) Fossum, M.; Kaefer, M.; Herbst, K. W.; Harper, L.; Beckers, G. M. A.; Nelson, C. P.; Garriboli, M.; Nieuwhof-Leppink, A.; Bagli, D.; Kalfa, N.; ESPU Research Committee; Urology, School of Medicine
    In this short educational communication the ESPU Research Committee presents the role of non-coding RNA and how these can affect gene expression. In particular we discuss the role of microRNA on post transcriptional changes and how these may cause pathological conditions within Pediatric Urology and how microRNA could be useful in future clinical practice.
