Urine composition in terms of calcium oxalate (CaOx) supersaturation was studied in 802
patients with calcium stone disease before any intervention and during follow-up …

Purpose: In general high urine supersaturation with respect to calcium oxalate, calcium
phosphate or uric acid is associated with that phase in stones. We explore the exceptions …

Purpose The relative supersaturation of calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate and uric acid is
used clinically in kidney stone prevention. The magnitude of the association between …

Purpose: To our knowledge no medication has been shown to be effective for preventing
recurrent calcium phosphate urinary stones. Potassium citrate may protect against calcium …

PURPOSE: A number of factors influence the development of renal calculi, the most
essential of which is the supersaturation of urine with lithogenic substances. Calcium …

Introduction Renal stone formation is the result of one or several abnormalities in urine
composition, urine flow, or function and morphology of cells in the tubular system. An optimal …

Introduction: Nephrolithiasis is a known risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD);
however, it is unknown how CKD affects urinary parameters related to stone risk. The …

Purpose: The prevalence of kidney stones has increased globally in recent decades.
However, studies investigating the association between temporal changes in the risk of …

Urinary macromolecules have attracted great interest because of their possible role as both
promoters and inhibitors of calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystallization and it remains unclear …

PURPOSE: Dietary oxalate may contribute up to 50% to 80% of the oxalate excreted in
urine. We studied the urinary response to an oral oxalate load in male and female idiopathic …
