Laterality of nephrocalcinosis in kidney stone formers with severe hypocitraturia [PDF]

BJU International, 2010
Study Type – Aetiology (case series)
Level of Evidence 4 What’s known on the subject? and What does the study add? Systemic urinary stone‐forming conditions such as hypocitraturia or cystinuria should theoretically lead to symmetric and diffuse stone formation.

Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms in children with kidney stone disease

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2017
Kidney stone disease has a multifactorial etiology involving the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. There is an increased risk of stone formation in the relatives of idiopathic stone patients, which can be explained up to 60% by genetic ...

Bilateral Ureteral Lithiasis and Postrenal Acute Kidney Injury: A Rare Complication of Diabetic Ketoacidosis in a Child. [PDF]

Case Rep Pediatr
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 ...

Hypocitraturia and its role in renal stone disease

Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine, 1988
For more than 5 0 years, low urinary citrate (hypocitraturia) has occurred in some patients with renal stones; however, only recently has more interest been generated in the role of hypocitraturia in renal stone disease and the beneficial effect of citrate therapy for the prevention and treatment of nephrolithiasis. The authors review the metabolism of

Clinical Significance of Hypocitraturia in Patients with Nephrolithiasis

Korean Journal of Urology, 2006
Purpose: Hypocitraturia is cited as one of the risk factors promoting stone formation or recurrence of nephrolithiasis. We estimated the relationship between hypocitraturia and other metabolic abnormalities, such as hypercalciuria, hyperuricosuria and hyperoxaluria. The effects of potassium citrate medication were also investigated.

Converting enzyme inhibition causes hypocitraturia independent of acidosis or hypokalemia [PDF]

Kidney International, 1998
Angiotensin II stimulates the proximal tubular Na/H antiporter and increases proximal tubular cell pH. Because intracellular pH may affect urinary citrate excretion and enzymes responsible for renal citrate metabolism, the present studies examined the effect of enalapril, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, on the activity of renal cortical ATP

Dietary Acid Load and Kidney Stones: NEAP Shows a Positive Association in a Nationally Representative Sample

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Higher NEAP was associated with higher odds of kidney stones in US adults; PRAL showed a weaker/borderline association after full adjustment. ABSTRACT This study aimed to examine the associations of Dietary acid load (DAL), estimated by net endogenous acid production (NEAP) and potential renal acid load (PRAL), with the prevalence of kidney stones in ...
