SGLT2 Inhibitor Use for Treatment of Hypocitraturia in a Distal Renal Tubular Acidosis
5-Amino salicylic acid (5-ASA) is a known culprit for the development of tubulointerstitial nephritis. Together with impaired kidney function, tubulointerstitial nephritis can lead to specific tubular malfunctions including distal renal tubular acidosis.

Hypocitraturia in patients with urolithiasis [PDF]
Editor,—Akcay et al observed a significantly lower urinary citrate excretion in children with a previous history of urolithiasis.1 Their findings are comparable with data presented in adult stone forming patients, showing a high incidence of hypocitraturia.2 As citrate is a potent inhibitor of calcium-oxalate or calcium-phosphate crystal aggregation,3 ...

Hypocitraturia in patients with urolithiasis. [PDF]
The urinary citrate/creatinine ratio was evaluated in 25 children with idiopathic calcium urolithiasis and 24 controls. The mean (SD) urinary citrate/creatinine ratio in controls and patients was 0.510 (0.205) and 0.181 (0.076), respectively, a statistically significant difference.

Bilateral Ureteral Lithiasis and Postrenal Acute Kidney Injury: A Rare Complication of Diabetic Ketoacidosis in a Child. [PDF]
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a common initial presentation of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in children occurring in up to 40% of cases. DKA can also be associated with severe complications, including nephrolithiasis. We present the case of a 12 years and 8‐month‐old boy who developed acute kidney injury (AKI) secondary to bilateral urinary ...
