Objectives: To investigate the characteristics of kidney stone disease (KSD) among the Chinese population with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and identify sex-specific factors associated with KSD.
The prevalence of arterial hypertension (HT) was investigated in 258 patients (171 m, 87 f, 22-68 years) with a history of primary stone disease. HT was detected in 64 patients (24.8%), with no difference between males (25.7%) and females (23.0%). The prevalence of HT by age was very similar to that
OBJECTIVE
There is conflicting evidence about the role of obesity in paediatric nephrolithiasis. This Polish study explored the influence of nutritional status and lipid disturbances on urinary lithogenic factors and the risk of kidney stone formation in children and adolescents from three to 18
OBJECTIVE
We studied the impact of dyslipidemia on 24-hour urinalysis and stone composition.
METHODS
We retrospectively identified patients with nephrolithiasis who underwent 24-hour urinalysis and lipid profile evaluation within 3 months. Patients were divided into groups based on total
OBJECTIVE
To identify correlates of kidney stone disease in white and African American men and women in a population-based longitudinal study starting in four US communities, and to assess differences in correlates across racial groups.
METHODS
Between 1993 and 1995, 12,161 middle-aged participants
BACKGROUND
Cell membranes and their lipids play critical roles in calcification. Specific membrane phospholipids promote the formation of calcium phosphate and become a part of the organic matrix of growing calcification. We propose that membrane lipids also promote the formation of calcium oxalate
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the influence of dyslipidemia on 24-h urine composition in adults who were non-stone formers (NF).
METHODS
Samples for 24-h urine composition were analyzed from 584 NF adults without urolithiasis in a national six-city-based epidemiologic study. The samples were divided into
BACKGROUND
Nephrolithiasis is more frequent and severe in obese patients from different western nations. This may be supported by higher calcium, urate, oxalate excretion in obese stone formers. Except these parameters, clinical characteristics of obese stone formers were not extensively
To evaluate the association between dyslipidemia and nephrolithiasis risk in a Chinese population.Fasting plasma lipid profiles were measured in a case-control study of 540 nephrolithiasis cases and 656 kidney stone-free Abetalipoproteinemia (ABL) is a very rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein gene (MTTP). ABL is characterized by lack of lipids and apolipoprotein B (apoB) in plasma, fat malabsorption and various clinical manifestations. We describe a
Since its introduction in 1921, the ketogenic diet has been in continuous use for children with difficult-to-control epilepsy. After decades of relative disuse, it is now both extremely popular and well studied, with approximately two-thirds of children demonstrating significant seizure reduction
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the long term outcome after biliary-intestinal bypass for morbid obesity.
METHODS
Retrospective study.
METHODS
County hospital, Sweden.
METHODS
120 consecutive patients operated on between 1977 and 1990.
METHODS
A variation of jejunoileal bypass in which the excluded bowel was
Male and female, young (2 months old) and mature (10 months old), obese and nonobese, spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were treated with dexamethasone, 5 micrograms/rat and 10 micrograms/rat, respectively, subcutaneously (SC) 2 times daily for 5 months. Steroid treatment stilled the voracious
BACKGROUND
We examined the relationship between stone disease and the amount of visceral adipose tissue measured with unenhanced computed tomography (CT).
METHODS
We included 149 patients with complaints of flank pain and kidney stones detected by CT, from August 2012 to April 2013. In addition, as
OBJECTIVE
The Aim of Study is to determine the prevalence of non-diabetic renal disease among South Indian type 2 diabetic subjects based on renal biopsy.
METHODS
Three thousand five hundred and ninety subjects with complete records were included for the study. One hundred and forty subjects who had
