The presence of mild hyperoxaluria in recurrent calcium oxalate stone formers is controversial. The aim of this study was to identify recurrent stone formers with mild hyperoxaluria and to classify them further by assessing their response to a low oxalate diet. In addition, the prevalence of other risk factors for stone formation in this group of patients was investigated. A total of 207 consecutive patients with recurrent renal calculi were screened and 40 (19%) were found to have mild hyperoxaluria. Of these, 18 (45%) responded to dietary oxalate restriction by normalising their urinary oxalate. The remaining 22 patients were classified as having idiopathic hyperoxaluria and were subdivided into those in whom urinary oxalate excretion was consistently elevated in all specimens measured and those in whom the elevation was intermittent in nature. Dietary oxalate restriction had a partially beneficial effect in lowering oxalate excretion in the patients with persistent hyperoxaluria. No difference in urinary oxalate excretion was found after dietary restriction in the patients with intermittent hyperoxaluria. Other risk factors, including dietary, absorptive and renal hypercalciuria and hypocitraturia, were documented, the prevalence of which (65%) was not significantly different from that (62.5%) found in 40 age- and sex-matched calcium stone formers without hyperoxaluria. The prevalence of hyperuricosuria was significantly greater in patients with hyperoxaluria when compared with stone controls. Further studies are required to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of hyperoxaluria in recurrent stone formers. 相似文献

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 recurrent calcium oxalate stone formers with and without mild hyperoxaluria to evaluate the potential pathophysiological significance of dietary oxalate. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 60 recurrent calcium stone formers underwent an oral oxalate load test. Urine samples were obtained after an overnight fast. Each patient then received an oral oxalate load (5 mM. sodium oxalate dissolved in 250 ml. distilled water) and 3, 2-hour urine samples were obtained 2, 4 and 6 hours after the oxalate load. We compared the response to the oxalate load in patients with and without mild hyperoxaluria, and in male and female patients without hyperoxaluria. RESULTS: The peak urinary response occurred 4 hours after the oral oxalate load in all patients. Those with mild hyperoxaluria had a mean fasting urinary oxalate-to-creatinine ratio +/- SE of 0.027 +/- 0.003 and a mean peak urinary oxalate-to-creatinine ratio of 0.071 +/- 0.006. In comparison, patients with normal oxalate excretion had a fasting and peak urinary oxalate-to-creatinine ratio of 0.018 +/- 0.001 and 0.056 +/- 0.004, respectively (p <0.05). The mean 6-hour increment for urinary oxalate excretion after the oxalate load for patients with hyperoxaluria versus those with normal urinary oxalate excretion was 17.2 +/- 1.9 versus 12.1 +/- 0.98 mg. (p <0.05). In the subset of patients with normal urinary oxalate excretion mean 6-hour cumulative urinary oxalate excretion was 16.8 +/- 1.3 and 13.3 +/- 1.4 mg. in males and females, respectively (p not significant). CONCLUSIONS: Recurrent calcium stone formers with mild hyperoxaluria have higher fasting urinary oxalate and an exaggerated urinary response to an oral oxalate load compared with recurrent calcium stone formers with normal urinary oxalate excretion. Men and women stone formers without hyperoxaluria excrete similar fractions of an oral oxalate load. Increased gastrointestinal absorption and renal excretion of dietary oxalate may be a significant pathophysiological mechanism of stone formation in patients with mild hyperoxaluria. 相似文献

The efficacy of dietary intervention on urinary risk factors for stone formation in recurrent calcium oxalate stone patients 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
PURPOSE: Nutrition is suggested to be the major environmental risk factor in idiopathic calcium oxalate stone disease. The study was designed to evaluate the effect of dietary intervention on urinary risk factors for recurrence in calcium oxalate stone formers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 76 men and 31 women with idiopathic calcium oxalate stone disease collected 24-hour urine on their habitual, self-selected diets and after 7 days on a balanced standardized diet according to the recommendations for calcium oxalate stone formers. RESULTS: On the usual diet, a urine volume of less than 2.0 l per 24 hours was present in 57.9%, hypercalciuria in 25.2%, hypomagnesuria in 18.7%, hyperoxaluria in 14.0%, hyperuricosuria in 41.3% and hypocitraturia in 57.0% of patients. The frequency of metabolic abnormalities and the risk of calcium oxalate stone formation decreased significantly on the ingestion of the balanced diet, due to the significant increase in urinary volume, pH and citrate excretion and the significant decrease in urinary calcium and uric acid excretion. No change occurred in urinary oxalate and magnesium excretion. CONCLUSIONS: The evaluation of urinary risk profiles of the patients on their usual dietary habits revealed a high risk for calcium oxalate stone formation. A low fluid intake and an increased intake of protein and alcohol were identified as the most important dietary risk factors. The shift to a nutritionally balanced diet according to the recommendations for calcium oxalate stone formers significantly reduced the stone forming potential. 相似文献

Urinary excretion of oxalate, calcium and urate has been investigated in 88 patients affected by idiopathic calcium oxalate stone disease and in 20 normal subjects. Of these ions, only oxalate was found significantly higher in stone formers. Defining hyperoxaluria as urinary oxalate excretion greater than 2 SD above normal, 50% of stone-forming people were found to be hyperoxaluric. When stone formers were classified in normo- and hyperoxaluric, the prevalence of hypercalciuria, hyperuricuria, family history of stone disease and recurrencies in stone formation was the same in both groups. It is concluded that hyperoxaluria is a frequent finding in finding in idiopathic calcium oxalate renal stone disease. 相似文献

The efficacy of rice-bran therapy was studied in patients with hypercalciuria who were suffering from calcium stones. The frequency of stone episodes was reduced dramatically, especially in "active recurrent stone formers". Urinary calcium excretion was considerably reduced, while urinary phosphate and oxalate were slightly increased. Urinary magnesium, uric acid, serum calcium, phosphate, magnesium and uric acid were not affected. There were no changes in serum iron, copper and zinc even when patients were treated for long periods. The treatment was tolerated well and there were no serious side effects. Rice-bran therapy is particularly useful in patients with hyperabsorptive hypercalciuria and it is effective in the prevention of recurrent urinary stone disease. 相似文献

PURPOSE: We determined why calcium oxalate stones instead of uric acid stones form in some patients with gouty diathesis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Gouty diathesis was diagnosed from absence of secondary causes of uric acid stones or low urinary pH, and reduced fractional excretion of urate with discriminant score of the relationship between urinary pH and fractional excretion of urate less than 80. From the stone registry 163 patients with gouty diathesis were identified, including 62 with uric acid stones (GD + UA) and 101 patients with calcium oxalate stones (GD + Ca). Metabolic data and 24-hour urinary chemistry study were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS: Compared with GD + UA, GD + Ca had significantly greater urinary calcium (196 +/- 96 mg per day vs 162 +/- 82 mg per day, p <0.05) and significantly lower urinary citrate (430 +/- 228 vs 519 +/- 288 mg per day, p <0.05), resulting in higher urinary saturation of calcium oxalate. Both groups had low urinary pH (less than 5.5) and high urinary undissociated uric acid (greater than 100 mg/dl). Urinary calcium post-oral calcium load was significantly higher in GD + Ca than in GD + UA (0.227 vs 0.168 mg/dl glomerular filtrate, p <0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Calcium oxalate stones may form in some patients with gouty diathesis due to increased urinary excretion of calcium and reduced excretion of citrate. Relative hypercalciuria in GD + Ca may be due to intestinal hyperabsorption of calcium. 相似文献

Effect of animal and vegetable protein intake on oxalate excretion in idiopathic calcium stone disease 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Oxalate excretion was measured in healthy subjects and idiopathic calcium stone-formers on dietary regimens which differed in the type and amount of protein allowed; 24-h urine collections were obtained from 41 practising vegetarians and 40 normal persons on a free, mixed, "mediterranean" diet. Twenty idiopathic calcium stone-formers were also studied while on two low calcium, low oxalate diets which differed in that animal protein was high in one and restricted in the other. Vegetarians had higher urinary oxalate levels than controls and although the calcium levels were markedly lower, urinary saturation with calcium/oxalate was significantly higher. This mild hypercalciuria was interpreted as being secondary to both a higher intake and increased fractional intestinal absorption of oxalate. Changing calcium stone-formers from a high to a low animal protein intake produced a significant decrease in calcium excretion but there was no variation in urinary oxalate. As a result, the decrease in calcium oxalate saturation was only marginal and not significant. It was concluded that dietary animal protein has a minimal effect on oxalate excretion. Mild hyperoxaluria of idiopathic calcium stone disease is likely to be intestinal in origin. Calcium stone-formers should be advised to avoid an excess of animal protein but the risks of a vegetable-rich diet should also be borne in mind. 相似文献

According to the dynamics of the urinary calcium excretion mechanism, we have classified the patients with urolithiasis into 4 groups, namely group I (normocalciuria; urinary calcium excretion of 270 mg/day or less for male patients and 210 mg/day or less for female patients), group II (absorptive hypercalciuria; hypercalciuric with urinary calcium excretion of 200 mg/day or less under the low calcium diet), group III (renal hypercalciuria; hypercalciuric with urinary calcium excretion exceeds 200 mg/day even under a low calcium diet), and group IV (hyperparathyroidism; hypercalciuric patients as in group III with high serum calcium). Of the 97 stone formers, 77 were classified into group I, 9 into group II, 8 into group III and 3 into group IV. Both under the restricted diet and under the ambulatory free diet, urinary calcium excretion of groups II, III and IV was significantly higher than that of the group I patients. It was noteworthy, however, that some of the patients in group I excreted much calcium without restriction of their diet. Although no difference in excretion of oxalate, magnesium and phosphate was observed between the 4 groups, the patients in groups II, and III excreted more uric acid into their urine than group I patients. As for stone recurrence rate, no difference was noted between group I and group II, III or IV. Based on these findings, we conclude that hypercalciuria has no significant role in the stone forming mechanism. However, lowering of urinary calcium and other stone forming constituents is mandatory in preventing stone recurrence until the mechanism of stone formation is elucidated more precisely. 相似文献

Association of absence of intestinal oxalate degrading bacteria with urinary calcium oxalate stone formation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

AIM: Urinary concentration of oxalate is considered an important factor in the formation of renal stones. Dietary oxalate is a major contributor to urinary oxalate excretion in most individuals. Furthermore, oxalate degrading bacteria have been isolated from human feces. We investigated the significance of oxalate degrading bacteria for urinary oxalate excretion and urinary stone formation. METHODS: Twenty-two known calcium oxalate stone-forming patients (stone formers) and 34 healthy volunteers (non-stone formers) were included in the study. Stool specimens were inoculated into pepton yeast glucose (PYG) medium supplemented with oxalate under anaerobic condition at 37 C for one week. After the incubation period, each colony was checked for the loss of oxalate from the culture medium. A 24-h urine sample was collected in 43 individuals and analyzed for oxalate excretion. RESULTS: Twenty-eight of 34 (82%) healthy volunteers and 10 of 22 (45%) calcium oxalate stone formers were colonized with oxalate degrading bacteria. Calcium oxalate stone formers were more frequently free of oxalate degrading bacteria (P < 0.01). Urinary excretion of oxalate in those with oxalate degrading bacteria was significantly less than in those without oxalate degrading bacteria (P < 0.05). Hyperoxaluria (> 40 mg/day) was found in four of 27 individuals (15%) with oxalate degrading bacteria compared to seven of 16 (44%) without oxalate degrading bacteria (P < 0.05), suggesting an association between the absence of oxalate degrading bacteria and the presence of hyperoxaluria. CONCLUSION: The absence of oxalate degrading bacteria in the gut could promote the absorption of oxalate, thereby increasing the level of urinary oxalate excretion. The absence of oxalate degrading bacteria from the gut appears to be a risk factor for the presence of absorptive hyperoxaluria and an increased likelihood of urolithiasis. 相似文献

The daily excretion of calcium, oxalate, uric acid and glycosaminoglycans, the 24-h urinary pH and volume, and the inhibitory effects of the urines on calcium oxalate crystal growth and aggregation, were measured in 44 normal women, 41 normal men, 32 female stone formers and 63 male stone formers. No significant differences could be found between the normal men and women, the male and female stone formers, or between the patients and their normal controls with regard to the excretion of oxalate and glycosaminoglycans, and the urinary pH. The normal women exhibited significantly lower urinary volumes and excreted less calcium per day than did the other subject groups. The excretion of calcium by the female stone formers was indistinguishable from that of both groups of men. The male and female stone formers did not differ from their corresponding control groups with regard to the excretion of urate, but both groups of male subjects had significantly higher daily urate excretions than did either female category. This was attributed to the greater body weights of the men. There were no discernible differences between any of the subject groups with regard to the inhibitory effects of their urines on calcium oxalate crystal growth, but urines from both groups of female subjects demonstrated a significantly greater inhibitory influence on crystal aggregation than did those of the men. It would appear that the relatively low incidence of uninfected calcium oxalate urolithiasis in women compared with men may be attributable to (a) a lower daily calcium excretion and (b) a higher inhibitory activity of their urines towards crystal aggregation. 相似文献

Population based data on 24-h urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate, magnesium, phosphate, uric acid and creatinine were collected from 220 children (aged 3–16 years) living in Cimitile, Campania, southern Italy. Mean excretion rates for 7 days were correlated with age, body weight, body mass index and height. The prevalence of hypercalciuria (>4 mg/kg body weight) and of hyperoxaluria (>60 mg/day) were 9.1% and 1.8%, respectively. The same 20 children were also identified as hypercalciuric when a calcium/creatinine ratio of greater than 0.15 was considered. No significant differences between boys and girls were found in the urinary excretion of the five constituents implicated in urolithiasis. The study data provide additional childhood reference values for urinary excretion of compounds related to stone formation. 相似文献

Intestinal Oxalobacter formigenes colonization in calcium oxalate stone formers and its relation to urinary oxalate 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Oxalobacter formigenes is an anaerobic commensal colonic bacterium capable of degrading oxalate through the enzyme oxalyl-CoA decarboxylase. It has been theorized that individuals who lack this bacterium have higher intestinal oxalate absorption, leading to a higher urinary oxalate concentration and an increased risk of calcium oxalate urolithiasis. We performed a prospective, controlled study to evaluate O. formigenes colonization in calcium oxalate stone formers and to correlate colonization with urinary oxalate and other standard urinary stone risk factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty-five first-time calcium oxalate stone formers were compared with 10 control subjects having no history of urolithiasis and a normal renal ultrasound scan. All subjects underwent standard metabolic testing by submitting serum and 24-hour urine specimens. In addition, all subjects submitted stool samples for culture and detection of O. formigenes by Xentr(ix) O. formigenes Monitor. RESULTS: Intestinal Oxalobacter was detected in only 26% of the stone formers compared with 60% of the controls (p < 0.05). Overall, the average urinary oxalate excretion by the two groups was similar (38.6 mg/day v 40.8 mg/day). Among stone formers, however, there were statistically higher urinary oxalate concentrations in O. formigenes-negative patients compared with those testing positive (41.7 mg/day v 29.4 mg/day) (p = 0.03). Furthermore, all 10 stone formers with hyperoxaluria (>44 mg/day) tested negative for O. formigenes (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Calcium oxalate stone formers have a low rate of colonization with O. formigenes. Among stone formers, absence of intestinal Oxalobacter correlates with higher urinary oxalate concentration and an increased risk of hyperoxaluria. Introduction of the Oxalobacter bacterium or an analog of its enzyme oxalyl-CoA decarboxylase into the intestinal tract may be a treatment for calcium oxalate stone disease. 相似文献

Relationship between urinary sodium excretion and urinary excretion of calcium, uric acid, oxalate, phosphate and magnesium was analyzed in 93 ambulatory patients with urolithiasis. There was a significant correlationship between urinary sodium excretion and urinary excretion of calcium, uric acid, oxalate (only in male stone formers), phosphate and magnesium, respectively. Under a salt restricted diet (NaCl 3-5 gm/day) for 3 days, urinary sodium excretion of 16 inpatients with urolithiasis was reduced remarkably together with significant reduction of urinary excretion of calcium, uric acid and oxalate. Urinary excretion of phosphate and magnesium showed no change. From these findings we conclude that restriction of sodium intake is an effective treatment for prevention of stone recurrence. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the metabolic characteristics of elderly patients with recurrent calcium oxalate stones. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Metabolic abnormalities were investigated in 88 patients with recurrent calcium oxalate stones, including 70 aged <60 years and 18 aged >/=60 years. The frequency of each metabolic abnormality and the value of each urinary constituent were compared among subgroups of age and gender. RESULTS: Hyperoxaluria was the most common abnormality, present in 56% and 67% of patients aged <60 and >/=60 years, respectively. Hyperuricosuria was significantly more common in older than in younger patients. There were no significant differences in the frequencies of hypercalciuria and hypocitraturia between the age groups. The urinary excretion of oxalate and the ratio of oxalate to creatinine were significantly greater in older than in younger men. The frequency of low urine volume was lower in older than in younger patients and the mean urinary volume was also greater in the older group. CONCLUSIONS: Hyperuricosuria and hyperoxaluria seem to be essential risk factors for calcium oxalate stone formation in elderly patients. Urinary oxalate excretion is significantly greater in older than in younger stone formers and is more prominent in men. 相似文献

Stone analysis was performed for 216 urinary calculi which were obtained from 205 patients in our hospital from January, 1980 to June, 1984. The results revealed 161 calcium stones, 21 uric acid stones, 19 struvite stones, 2 cystine stones and 13 others. Sixty one of the 205 patients (male 44, female 17) and 19 controls (male 11, female 8) were investigated for 24-hour urine calcium and uric acid. Forty seven of the patients had calcium stones, 7 of the patients had uric acid stones and 7 of the patients had struvite stones. The mean 24-hour urine calcium level was 146.8 +/- 76.5 mg/day for the male controls and 139.1 +/- 69.9 mg/day for the female controls. The mean 24-hour urine uric acid level was 528.1 +/- 132.6 mg/day for the male controls and 362.0 +/- 135.2 mg/day for the female controls. The mean 24-hour urine calcium level for the male calcium-stone group was 214.6 +/- 96.8 mg/day, and it was significantly higher than that for the male controls (p less than 0.05). The 24-hour urine analysis revealed abnormalities in 17 urolithiasis patients (27.9%) including hypercalciuria in 11 patients (18.0%) and hyperuricosuria in 9 patients (14.1%). 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Hyperuricosuria is a well-recognized risk factor for calcium oxalate urolithiasis. Some studies have demonstrated elevated urinary uric acid excretion in stone formers compared with non-stone-forming controls; nevertheless, these studies were limited by patient consumption of self-selected diets. With the recognition that dietary differences may induce variations in urinary uric acid excretion, we evaluated excretion of this compound in stone formers and controls consuming a standardized diet. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A standardized formula diet was administered to 65 calcium oxalate stone formers and 61 age-matched non-stone-forming controls. During the 3 days of dietary intervention, 24-hour urine collections were obtained. Mean urinary uric acid excretion indexed to urinary creatinine was calculated for each subject, and the results in the two groups were compared. RESULTS: Stone-forming subjects did not have an elevation in urinary uric excretion compared with control subjects, with mean indexed urinary uric acid excretions of 337 +/- 64 mg/g of creatinine and 379 +/- 76 mg/g of creatinine, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: With dietary standardization, there was no observed increase in urinary uric acid excretion in our sampled populations. These findings emphasize the role of dietary factors in urinary uric acid excretion and highlight the potential value of dietary interventions. 相似文献

Twenty-four hour urinary excretion of the stone forming constituents, calcium, oxalate, uric acid, phosphate and magnesium were assayed either under the restricted diet (190 stone formers and 52 non-stone formers) or under the ambulatory free diet (93 stone formers and 14 non-stone formers). Under the ambulatory free diet, urinary excretion of calcium, uric acid and magnesium in the male stone formers, and urinary excretion of calcium and magnesium in the female stone formers was significantly higher than that under the restricted diet. Under the restricted diet, no difference in urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate, uric acid or phosphate was noted between the stone formers and non-stone formers. However, urinary magnesium excretion of the stone formers under the restricted diet was significantly lower than that of the non-stone formers. Under the free diet, no difference in urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate, uric acid, phosphate or magnesium was observed between the stone formers and non-stone formers. Also, there was no significant difference in urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate, uric acid, phosphate or magnesium between the unilateral urolithiasis patients without previous stone history and that of the bilateral or recurrent stone formers. We conclude that urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate, uric acid, phosphate and magnesium have no major role in the stone producing mechanism. However, reduction of urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate, uric acid and phosphate and augmentation of urinary excretion of magnesium are mandatory in preventing stone recurrence until a better understanding of the cause of urolithiasis is obtained. 相似文献

The relationships between urinary oxalate, calcium and magnesium were investigated in 81 patients with idiopathic calcium oxalate urolithiasis on their regular diets. A significant relationship was established between calcium and oxalate excretion in the analysis of recurrent stone-formers (n = 44, P less than 0.01), though there was no significant difference between the two in the analysis of the patients overall or in single stone-formers. This suggests that recurrent stone-formers may have some abnormality of oxalate absorption in relation to calcium absorption. The role of calcium-oxalate interaction in the gut as a cause of mild hyperoxaluria is discussed. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Hyperoxaluria is a major predisposing factor in calcium oxalate urolithiasis. The aim of the present study was to clarify the role of dietary oxalate in urinary oxalate excretion and to assess dietary risk factors for hyperoxaluria in calcium oxalate stone patients. METHODS: Dietary intakes of 186 calcium oxalate stone formers, 93 with hyperoxaluria (>or=0.5 mmol/day) and 93 with normal oxalate excretion (<0.4 mmol/day), were assessed by a 24-hour weighed dietary record. Each subject collected 24-hour urine during the completion of the food record. Oxalate content of foods was measured by a recently developed analytical method. RESULTS: The mean daily intakes of energy, total protein, fat and carbohydrates were similar in both groups. The diets of the patients with hyperoxaluria were estimated to contain 130 mg/day oxalate and 812 mg/day calcium as compared to 101 mg/day oxalate and 845 mg/day calcium among patients without hyperoxaluria. These differences were not significant. The mean daily intakes of water (in food and beverages), magnesium, potassium, dietary fiber and ascorbic acid were greater in patients with hyperoxaluria than in stone formers with normal oxalate excretion. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that urinary oxalate excretion was significantly associated with dietary ascorbate and fluid intake, and inversely related to calcium intake. Differences of estimated diet composition of both groups corresponded to differences in urinary parameters. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that hyperoxaluria predominantly results from increased endogenous production and from intestinal hyperabsorption of oxalate, partly caused by an insufficient supply or low availability of calcium for complexation with oxalate in the intestinal lumen. 相似文献

The value of the 24-hour urine analysis in the assessment of stone-formers attending a general hospital outpatient clinic 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The daily urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate, uric acid and glycosaminoglycans, and 24-h urinary volume and pH, were measured in 39 normal men and 65 male patients who had formed at least one calcium oxalate stone. No significant difference could be found between the two groups of subjects with respect to any of the urinary parameters. Nonetheless, a higher proportion of stone-formers than normals had daily excretion levels of oxalate in excess of the normal 95th percentile. On the other hand, there was no difference between the proportion of stone-formers and normals who fell into this category with respect to calcium excretion. It was concluded that a single 24-h urine analysis is of limited practical value in explaining the occurrence of stones or in predicting the likelihood of further episodes in unselected stone-formers attending a general hospital outpatient clinic. 相似文献
