Effect of calcium content of diet on crystal formation in urine of patients with calcium oxalate stones: a randomized crossover clinical trial

African Journal of Urology, 2021
Background Patients with idiopathic calcium oxalate stones are advised to consume a low-oxalate diet to prevent recurrence. In this study, on patients with calcium oxalate stones we have attempted to determine the effect of calcium content of diet on the

Cementum Attachment Protein-Derived Peptides Modulate Brushite and Calcium Oxalate Crystallization In Vitro. [PDF]

J Pept Sci
Cementum attachment protein‐derived peptides adsorb to specific crystallographic faces of brushite and calcium oxalate, blocking calcium deposition. This phosphorylation‐enhanced modulation alters crystal growth under conditions in vitro, leading to the formation of irregular brushite crystals and rosette‐like calcium oxalate morphologies.

Urinary Stone Analysis of 1,000 Patients in Southern Taiwan

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2007
Urolithiasis is a common urologic disease. Stones may occur in the kidney, ureter, or urinary bladder. We collected 1,000 stone samples in the subtropical area of southern Taiwan. Stone components were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.
