Calcium Phosphate/Calcium Oxalate Crystal Association in Urinary Stones

The Journal of Urology, 1997
Most stones contain more than one type of crystals, and some combinations, such as calcium phosphate/calcium oxalate, are more common than others. Epitaxy between the crystals has been suggested to play a role in growth of such stones. The specific aim of this study is to investigate the involvement of calcium phosphate in crystallization of calcium ...

Changing climates and environments within the complex Middle to Late Pleistocene fill of an overdeepened valley at Niederweningen, Switzerland

Boreas, EarlyView.
Glacially overdeepened valleys in the northern Alpine Foreland preserve Middle to Late Pleistocene sedimentary sequences that may serve as valuable archives for reconstructing past environmental changes in response to shifts in climate. This study presents a multidisciplinary analysis of two sediment cores from the overdeepened Wehntal Valley at ...

Early‐stage crystalluria‐associated cystitis in a horse: Diagnostic value of serial urine sediment examination

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Calcium carbonate crystals are commonly observed in equine urine; however, crystalluria without urolith formation rarely results in clinically significant disease. A 4‐year‐old Japanese Sport Horse developed recurrent haematuria accompanied by the presence of numerous angular calcium carbonate crystals. Discontinuing the calcium supplementation
