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

The influence of diet on urinary risk factors for stones in healthy subjects and idiopathic renal calcium stone formers 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The daily intake of 103 recurrent idiopathic calcium stone formers and 146 controls was assessed by means of a computer-assisted 24-h dietary record. Timed 24-h urine samples were collected over the same period to assess the relationship between dietary intake of nutrients and urinary risk factors for calcium stones. After standardisation for sex, age and social status a total of 128 subjects underwent final statistical analysis; 64 renal stone formers and 64 controls. Significant increases in the consumption of animal and vegetable protein and purine were identified as the nutritional factors that distinguished renal stone formers from controls. As expected, the daily urinary excretion of calcium and oxalate was higher and the daily urinary excretion of citrate was lower in stone formers than in controls. No difference with respect to daily urinary uric acid excretion was recorded. Daily urinary excretion of calcium was correlated to dietary protein intake while daily urinary oxalate was correlated to dietary vitamin C intake. It was concluded that renal stone formers could be predisposed to stones because of their dietary patterns. A link between the protein content of the diet and urinary calcium was confirmed, but dietary animal protein had a minimal effect on oxalate excretion. 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

Circadian rhythmicity in urinary volume and excretion of creatinine, calcium, oxalate, uric acid and phosphate was studied in 15 idiopathic stone formers and in 17 control subjects who were age-matched, related adult males, living in the same house and engaged in similar occupations to those of the stone patients, but who had no clinically obvious stone disease. Three-hourly urine samples were collected and creatinine, calcium, oxalate, uric acid and inorganic phosphate were estimated. The time series of data were analysed by cosinor rhythmometry. Circadian rhythmicity has been described in urinary volume and urinary excretion of creatinine, calcium, oxalate, uric acid and inorganic phosphate in normal subjects, but it was not detected in the stone formers. The control subjects exhibited a circadian rhythmicity only in urinary volume and creatinine excretion. Thus they occupied a position midway between healthy adults, who exhibit circadian rhythmicity in all of the above parameters, and the stone formers, who appear to have lost it altogether. 相似文献

Three hundred and ninety-two stone formers were investigated to exclude systemic disorders and to define the presence of haematological and urinary abnormality commonly associated with stone disease. Increased urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate or uric acid was found in 40% and there was more than one abnormality in 16% of the patients. The dietary habit of stone formers did not differ significantly from that of control subjects. Dietary advice to increase the consumption of fibre and reduce the consumption of sugar, refined carbohydrates and animal protein produced a significant reduction in the urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate and uric acid. We consider that reduction of the nutrient density of the diet by this means is the first line of management of idiopathic 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

BACKGROUND: The overall effect of fruit and vegetable intake on urinary stone risk profile is not yet known. METHODS: We studied the effect of a two-week period of fruit and vegetable elimination on urinary stone risk profile in 12 normal adults, and of supplementing the diet with a fair quantity of low-oxalate fruits and vegetables in 26 idiopathic calcium stone formers characterized by hypocitraturia and a very low fruit and vegetable intake in their usual diet. RESULTS: In the normal subjects, the elimination of fruits and vegetables from the diet decreased the urinary excretion of potassium (-62%), magnesium (-26%), citrate (-44%) and oxalate (-31%), and increased that of calcium (+49%) and ammonium (+12%) (P < 0.05 for all). The relative saturation for calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate increased from 6.33 to 8.24 (P = 0.028), and from 0.68 to 1.58 (P = 0.050), respectively. In the hypocitraturic stone formers, the introduction of these foods in the diet increased urinary volume (+64%), pH (from 5.84 to 6.19), excretion of potassium (+68%), magnesium (+23%), and citrate (+68%), while it decreased the excretion of ammonium (-18%) (P < 0.05 for all). The relative saturation for calcium oxalate and uric acid fell from 10.17 to 4.96 (P < 0.001), and from 2.78 to 1.12 (P = 0.003), respectively. CONCLUSION: The total elimination of fruits and vegetables in normal subjects brings about adverse changes in the urinary stone risk profile that are only partially counterbalanced by a reduction in oxalate. In contrast, the addition of these foods to the diet of hypocitraturic stone formers not used to eating them not only significantly increases citrate excretion without affecting oxalate excretion, but also decreases calcium oxalate and uric acid relative saturation. 相似文献

Calcium oxalate retention in subjects with crystalluria 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Calcium oxalate retention was studied in non-stone-forming volunteers. All subjects were placed on a constant diet for 5 days. After the oral administration of 10 microCi of [14C]-oxalic acid, the pattern of urinary oxalate excretion was followed for 48 h. Each subject was then given 10 microCi of [14C]-oxalic acid mixed with sufficient sodium oxalate (7.5 mg/kg body weight) to induce calcium oxalate crystalluria. Urinary oxalate excretion was then recorded for 48 h. After the administration of labeled oxalic acid (without additional sodium oxalate), 76.6 +/- 5.9% of the total recovered dose was excreted by 4 h. When the labeled oxalic acid was mixed with a sodium oxalate load, 62.4 +/- 8.8% was excreted by 4 h (p less than 0.01). Induction of calcium oxalate crystalluria results in the retention of oxalate in the kidney. The degree of retention varies among individuals. Differences in particle retention may help explain the differences between stone formers and non-stone formers. 相似文献

Etiological role of estrogen status in renal stone formation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
PURPOSE: Estrogen may protect against kidney stone formation since nephrolithiasis is more common in men than in women. Moreover, the incidence of stones rises after menopause in women. We examined the contribution of estrogen to kidney stone risk by comparing outpatient evaluations in the 2 genders, and in estrogen treated and untreated postmenopausal women. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed the results of the initial evaluation of 1,454 adult calcium oxalate stone formers, including 1,050 men and 404 women. Of the postmenopausal women 39 and 50 were estrogen treated and untreated, respectively. Samples of urine and blood were collected 1 week after the imposition of a diet restricted moderately in sodium and calcium, and modestly in oxalate and animal protein. RESULTS: Compared with men the daily excretion of urinary calcium, oxalate and uric acid was lower in women. Women had lower saturations of calcium oxalate and brushite as well as lower excretion of undissociated uric acid. Compared with men urinary calcium was lower in women until age 50 years, when it equaled that of men. Citrate was equal in the genders until the age 60 years, when it tended to decrease in women. Compared with nontreated postmenopausal women those treated with estrogen had lower mean 24-hour calcium plus or minus SD (155 +/- 62 versus 193 +/- 90 mg. per day, p <0.02), mean 2-hour fasting urine calcium (0.08 +/- 0.05 versus 0.12 +/- 0.09 mg./mg. creatinine, p <0.01) and mean calcium oxalate saturation (5.07 +/- 2.27 versus 6.48 +/- 3.44, p <0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The lower risk of stone formation in women may be due to the lower urinary saturation of stone forming salts. Estrogen treatment may decrease the risk of stone recurrence in postmenopausal women by lowering urinary calcium and calcium oxalate saturation. 相似文献

PURPOSE: We evaluated the effect of cranberry juice on urinary stone risk factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 12 normal subjects and 12 calcium oxalate stone formers underwent 2, 7-day phases of study in random order while on a controlled metabolic diet. Subjects ingested 1 l of cranberry juice (CBJ) daily in 1 phase and 1 l of deionized water in the other phase. On the last 2 days of each phase 2, 24-hour urine collections and blood samples were obtained for stone risk factors and serum chemistries. RESULTS: No significant differences were found between normal subjects and stone formers in response to CBJ and, therefore, the groups were combined. CBJ significantly increased urinary calcium (from 154 to 177 mg per day, p =0.0008) and urinary oxalate (from 26.4 to 29.2 mg per day, p =0.04), thereby increasing urinary saturation of calcium oxalate by 18%. Urinary citrate was unchanged and urinary magnesium increased slightly. Urinary pH decreased (from 5.97 to 5.67, p =0.0005), and urinary ammonium, titratable acidity and net acid excretion increased during CBJ ingestion. Urinary uric acid decreased (from 544 to 442 mg per day, p <0.0001) as did serum uric acid. Thus, the urinary saturation of brushite and monosodium urate was reduced by CBJ but the amount of undissociated uric acid increased. CONCLUSIONS: CBJ exerts a mixed effect on urinary stone forming propensity. It reduces urinary pH likely by providing an acid load and decreases urinary uric acid perhaps by retarding urate synthesis. Overall CBJ increases the risk of calcium oxalate and uric acid stone formation but decreases the risk of brushite stones. 相似文献

The hypothesis that the incidence of calcium stone disease is related to the consumption of animal protein has been examined. Within the male population, recurrent idiopathic stone formers consumed more animal protein than did normal subjects. Single stone formers had animal protein intakes intermediate between those of normal men and those of recurrent stone formers. A high animal protein intake caused a significant increase in the urinary excretion of calcium, oxalate and uric acid, 3 of the 6 main urinary risk factors for calcium stone formation. The overall relative probability of forming stones, calculated from the combination of the 6 main urinary risk factors, was markedly increased by a high animal protein diet. Conversely, a low animal protein intake, such as taken by vegetarians, was associated with a low excretion of calcium, oxalate and uric acid and a low relative probability of forming stones. 相似文献

Acute caffeine effects on urine composition and calcium kidney stone risk in calcium stone formers 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
PURPOSE: Caffeine increases urinary calcium (ca) excretion in nonstone formers. We designed a study to determine the effect of caffeine consumption on urinary composition in stone formers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 39 normocalcemic patients with calcium stones consumed caffeine (6 mg/kg lean body mass) after 14 hours of fasting. Urinary composition was compared 2 hours before and 2 hours after caffeine consumption. Control subjects included 9 nonstone formers studied contemporaneously with patients plus data from 39 nonstone formers from previous studies matched to each patient by level of fasting calcium/creatinine (Cr), gender and age. RESULTS: Caffeine increased urinary Ca/Cr, magnesium/Cr, citrate/Cr and sodium/Cr but not oxalate/Cr in stone formers and controls. The Tiselius stone risk index for calcium oxalate precipitation increased from 2.4 to 3.1 in stone formers and from 1.7 to 2.5 in nonstone formers. Of the 39 stone formers 32 had an increased Tiselius risk index after caffeine. Post-caffeine increases in Ca/Cr and Na/Cr were highly correlated. CONCLUSIONS: Caffeine consumption may modestly increase risk of calcium oxalate stone formation. 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

Intestinal oxalate and calcium absorption in recurrent renal stone formers and healthy subjects 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The fractional intestinal absorption of oxalate and calcium was investigated by isotope techniques in 20 normal subjects and in 12 idiopathic calcium oxalate stone formers. The greatest amount of 14C-oxalate was excreted during the first six hour period in controls as well as in stone formers. The stone formers had a greater intestinal uptake of oxalate (11 +/- 5.1%) than the controls (6.2 +/- 3.7%; p less than 0.01). There was no significant relationship between the fractional absorption of oxalate and the total urinary oxalate excretion. The stone formers also had a higher fractional uptake of calcium compared to the controls (55 +/- 11% vs. 47 +/- 9.1%; p less than 0.05). There was a positive relationship (r = 0.47) between the urinary excretions of calcium and oxalate in the stone formers. During these conditions no correlation could be demonstrated between the fractional absorptions of oxalate and calcium, neither in the stone formers nor in the controls. In conclusion, patients with recurrent formation of calcium oxalate containing stones appear to have an enhanced intestinal uptake of both oxalate and calcium. This disturbance could be of primary pathogenic importance for their stone forming propensity. 相似文献

An acute acid load was used to evaluate potential chemical differences of urinary composition in recurrent oxalate stone formers and healthy controls. After intake of ammonium chloride, total calcium, ionized calcium and magnesium increased and citrate decreased significantly in both groups. Differences between stone formers and controls could be demonstrated from the excretion of total calcium, citrate, oxalate and uric acid only after acute acid load, whereas ionized calcium did not improve discrimination. These findings support the stone-promoting role of high acid food as well as the possibility of discriminating recurrent oxalate stone formers from controls by an acute acid-loading test. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The object of this study was to investigate the role for measurement of 24-h renal oxalate excretion in the evaluation of idiopathic calcium stone formers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Renal excretion rates of oxalate and creatinine were measured in 24-h urines in 46 consecutive male recurrent idiopathic calcium stone formers and 61 healthy males. Furthermore, day-to-day variation in renal oxalate excretion in 10 male recurrent stone formers and 10 healthy males were evaluated by measuring 24-h oxalate excretion on 5 different days in each individual. Concentrations of oxalate in urine were measured using an enzymatic method without ascorbate interference. RESULTS: The cumulative frequency distribution curves of 24-h renal oxalate excretion rates of stone formers and controls were congruent, and there were no statistically significant differences in oxalate excretion rates between stone formers and controls. Mean 24-h oxalate excretion (95%-confidence intervals) was 0.22 (0.18-0.25) mmol and 0.21 (0.18-0.24) mmol in stone formers and controls, respectively (p = 0.9). The day-to-day variation study did not reveal any differences in renal oxalate excretion pattern between stone formers and controls, and the presence of intermittent hyperoxaluria could not be confirmed. The oxalate excretion rates were generally low. CONCLUSION: In our region, there appear to be no differences in 24-h renal excretion rates of oxalate between male recurrent idiopathic calcium stone formers and healthy males, and the syndrome of mild hyperoxaluric calcium nephrolithiasis could not be identified in our population of idiopathic stone formers. Hence, a limit of abnormal oxalate excretion that distinguishes an idiopathic stone former from a non-stone former could not be defined in our population. Therefore, the value of routine measurement of urinary oxalate in idiopathic urolithiasis is difficult to accept, and cannot be recommended. 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

A spinach loading experiment was performed on 9 normal subjects, 25 outpatients who were single calcium oxalate stone formers and 25 recurrent calcium oxalate stone formers. The experimental diet contained 445 mg of total oxalate, 163 mg of soluble oxalate and 115 mg of calcium. Urinary oxalate excretion was observed 2 hrs before and 6 hrs after the experimental diet was consumed. There was no significant difference in urinary oxalate excretion in preloading urine of normal subjects and stone formers. However, urinary oxalate excretion in postloading urine was significantly elevated in stone formers. This loading test is recommended as a simple and valuable screening method of hyperabsorption of oxalate on outpatients with calcium oxalate stones. 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

PURPOSE: To examine the influence of dietary intake on urinary oxalate excretion in calcium oxalate stone formers in their forties. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Dietary intake was recorded by using the dietary-record method in 58 idiopathic stone formers in their forties. The patients collected their urine for 24 h at home and their urinary oxalate excretion was measured. The relationship between the dietary intake of various nutrients and urinary oxalate excretion was examined by mono- and multivariate analysis. RESULTS: The intake of animal fat was correlated with urinary oxalate excretion by monovariate analysis, but that of total protein, animal protein, calcium and carbohydrate were not. By multivariate analysis, the intake of animal fat was correlated with urinary oxalate excretion and the intake of calcium was inversely correlated with urinary oxalate excretion. CONCLUSION: The intake of animal fat was positively and the intake of calcium was negatively correlated with the urinary oxalate excretion in stone formers in their forties. It was shown that animal fat plays an important role in urinary oxalate excretion. 相似文献
