Difference in 24-Hour Urine Composition between Diabetic and Non-Diabetic Adults without Nephrolithiasis
BACKGROUND Diabetic patients are more likely to develop kidney stones than the general population. The underlying mechanisms for this disparity remain to be elucidated. Little is known about the relationship between urine composition and diabetes mellitus in non-stone-forming individuals. We sought to examine the differences in the 24-hour (24-h) urine composition between diabetic and non-diabe...
متن کاملUrine risk factors in children with calcium kidney stones and their siblings
Calcium nephrolithiasis in children is increasing in prevalence and tends to be recurrent. Although children have a lower incidence of nephrolithiasis than adults, its etiology in children is less well understood; hence, treatments targeted for adults may not be optimal in children. To better understand metabolic abnormalities in stone-forming children, we compared chemical measurements and the...
متن کاملThe link between metabolic syndrome and nephrolithiasis: a white whale for understanding urinary stone disease
Transl Androl Urol 2014;3(3):296 www.amepc.org/tau The incidence of nephrolithiasis has risen steadily over recent decades, as has the rates of the metabolic syndrome. Several factors have contributed to this, including the increased incidence of obesity; more than 30% of Americans have a body mass index (BMI) >30. The etiologies for both are complex and multifactorial, but a consistently demon...
متن کاملRe: Effect of Potassium Citrate on Calcium Phosphate Stones in a Model of Hypercalciuria.
Potassium citrate is prescribed to decrease stone recurrence in patients with calcium nephrolithiasis. Citrate binds intestinal and urine calcium and increases urine pH. Citrate, metabolized to bicarbonate, should decrease calcium excretion by reducing bone resorption and increasing renal calcium reabsorption. However, citrate binding to intestinal calcium may increase absorption and renal excr...
متن کاملEffects of mineral composition of drinking water on risk for stone formation and bone metabolism in idiopathic calcium nephrolithiasis.
1. To assess whether the mineral content of drinking water influences both risk of stone formation and bone metabolism in idiopathic calcium nephrolithiasis, 21 patients were switched from their usual home diets to a 10 mmol calcium, low-oxalate, protein-controlled diet, supplemented with 21 of three different types of mineral water. Drinking water added 1, 6 and 20 mmol of calcium and 0.5, 10 ...
