Medical Management of Hypocitraturia

2014
Nephrolithiasis is a common disorder which left untreated has a high rate of recurrence. Hypocitraturia is a significant risk factor for the development of calcium kidney stones, and is present in up to 60 % of stone formers. Urinary citrate is an endogenous inhibitor of stone formation.

Nutrition Management of Hypocitraturia

2014
Hypocitraturia, or low urinary citrate, is a known risk factor for kidney stones. Increasing urinary citrate levels decreases the risk for developing nephrolithiasis. Many dietary factors may affect urinary citrate including citrate intake, magnesium intake, the potential renal acid load (PRAL) of food and beverages, and potassium intake.

Mechanisms of Hypocitraturia in Idiopathic Calcium-Stone Disease

1989
Low urinary citrate excretion is thought to be an important risk factor for calcium nephrolithiasis, and hypocitraturia is referred to as a common biochemical finding in this disease (1, 2).

Hypocitraturia: pathophysiology and medical management.

Reviews in urology, 2011
Low urinary citrate excretion is a known risk factor for the development of kidney stones. Citrate inhibits stone formation by complexing with calcium in the urine, inhibiting spontaneous nucleation, and preventing growth and agglomeration of crystals. Hypocitraturia is a common metabolic abnormality found in 20% to 60% of stone formers.

[Hypocitraturia in children with urolithiasis].

Polski merkuriusz lekarski : organ Polskiego Towarzystwa Lekarskiego, 2000
Inhibitors of crystallization process play an important role in renal-stone forming patients. One of well-known inhibitor is citrate. The aim of the study was to define the type of metabolic abnormality in children with nephrolithiasis and the role of urinary citrate excretion. 52 children with nephrolithiasis were examined. Hypocitraturia was observed

Prevalence of Permanent Idiopathic Hypocitraturia in Calcium Stone Formers

1989
We retrospectively analyzed the frequency and peristence as well as the cause of hypocitraturia in 309 idiopathic Ca stone formers (205 males and 104 females) followed at Necker Hospital from January, 1983 until June, 1987. All subjects underwent serial determinations of daily urinary citrate excretion (UCitV).

Clinical significance of hypocitraturia in kidney stone patients.

Nihon Jinzo Gakkai shi, 1994
Although a low concentration of urinary citrate is cited as one of the risk factors promoting stone formation or recurrence among patients with urinary stones, its clinical significance remains obscure. We studied 62 kidney stone patients with a low urinary citrate excretion (hypocitraturia) of less than 320 mg/day, without any apparent cause.

Hypocitraturia despite potassium citrate tablet supplementation.

MedGenMed : Medscape general medicine, 2007
Citrate supplementation is widely used in the prevention of recurrent nephrolithiasis with hypocitraturia. Potassium citrate is the most commonly used citrate agent for this indication. In patients with chronic diarrheal syndromes, the absorption of potassium citrate can be affected.

Hypocitraturia: a common but not well-known cause of nephrolithiasis.

The Netherlands journal of medicine, 2016
Nephrolithiasis is a frequent problem that can cause serious morbidity. When associated with an underlying metabolic disorder the recurrence rate is higher. Hypocitraturia is estimated to be present in 20-60% of cases. Several secondary causes are known. Potassium citrate is the primary treatment.
