: There are multiple stone types, each forming under different urinary conditions. We compared clinical and metabolic findings in pure stone formers to understand if there are consistent factors that differentiate these groups in terms of underlying etiology and potential for empiric treatment. : Pure SFs based on infrared spectroscopic analysis of stones obtained at our institution between 01/2002 and 07/2018 with a corresponding 24-hour urinalysis were retrospectively evaluated. : 121 apatite, 54 brushite, 50 calcium oxalate dihydrate, 104 calcium oxalate monohydrate, and 82 uric acid patients were analyzed. Apatite, brushite, and calcium oxalate dihydrate patients were younger than calcium oxalate monohydrate and uric acid patients. Uric acid patients had the highest male predominance (76.8%), while apatite patients were predominantly female (80.2%). Uric acid was most associated with diabetes mellitus (45.3%), and calcium oxalate monohydrate with cardiovascular disease (27.2%) and malabsorptive gastrointestinal conditions (19.2%). Brushite patients had the highest prevalence of primary hyperparathyroidism (17%). Apatite, brushite, and calcium oxalate dihydrate patients demonstrated high rates of hypercalciuria (66.1%, 79.6%, 82%). Apatite and brushite patients had the highest urinary pH. Apatite patients exhibited the highest rate of hypocitraturia while calcium oxalate dihydrate patients exhibited the lowest (55.4%, 30%). Calcium oxalate monohydrate patients had the highest rate of hyperoxaluria (51.9%). Uric acid patients had the lowest urinary pH. There were no observable differences in the rates of hyperuricosuria or hypernatriuria. : These results demonstrate that pure stone composition correlates with certain urinary and clinical characteristics. This data can help guide empiric clinical decision-making.

Impact on urinary oxalate levels with use of ezetimibe.

Endocrinol Diabetes Metab 2021 Apr 4;4(2):e00221. Epub 2021 Jan 4.

Division of Nephrology and Hypertension Mayo Clinic Florida Jacksonville FL USA.

Background: Calcium oxalate stones are the most common cause of nephrolithiasis in the United States. Smaller studies of <15 patients investigating ezetimibe, a selective cholesterol absorption inhibitor, have suggested increased urine oxalate levels with use of the drug. We attempt to better define this relationship of ezetimibe on urinary oxalate using a larger patient sample analysing multiple urine collections on and off treatment. Read More

Background: Calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystal deposition and crystal-induced renal tubular epithelial cell injury have been found to fundamentally contribute to the formation of CaOx nephrolithiasis.

Purpose: In the current work, we aim to study the role and mechanism of kaempferol in CaOx crystal kidney deposition and crystal-induced renal injury.

Study Design: Mice models and HK-2 cells were used to investigate the effect of kaempferol in CaOx crystal-induced renal injury and crystal deposition in the kidney and its underlying mechanism by a series of experiments. Read More

Phosphorus (P) is a vital plant macronutrient required for plant growth which usually available in limited amount. P availability for plant uptake in highly weathered soil is controlled by soil erosion and high fixation. The availability of P applied from fertilizers depend on the soil pH, soil sorption capacity (PSC) and P saturation status (PSD), which determines P storage, losses, fixation, and additional P to be added with minimal loss to the environment.

Linköping University, Department of Health, Medicine and Caring Sciences, Division of Diagnostics and Specialist Medicine, 581 83, Linköping, Sweden.

The analytical method of Gd determination was developed with the aim to analyse Gd in environmental and bioassay samples. It involves the use of anion exchange resin, extraction chromatography, and cation exchange resin. Alkaline fusion and calcium oxalate co-precipitation are used for solid samples dissolution and liquid samples preconcentration, respectively. Read More
