Medical Hypotheses, 1991
Although many risk factors and theories exist in the literature for urinary stone formation, a hypothesis is suggested for the pathogenesis of renal stones. According to the matrix theory, a protein such as uromucoid activates the initial crystallisation process by promoting the formation of calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate crystals as well as ...

Kidney stones are a common and preventable disorder. Certain occupations may increase risk for stone disease which will be discussed in this review. Few observational studies have examined this association.Some occupations prevent individuals from drinking enough fluids to maintain a dilute urine or to void when they need to.

Kidney stones are common and do not spare the pregnant population. Although a simple stone event is usually straightforward in the general population, it is complex during pregnancy. Acute nephrolithiasis is associated with a unique set of complications during pregnancy and, because of imaging limitations, diagnosis is challenging.

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1989
The proper approach to diagnosis and management in patients with a first episode of a calcium-containing kidney stone is controversial, and we have reviewed the literature in a search for objective information. Six large retrospective studies show the "natural cumulative recurrence rate of renal stones" to be 14% at 1 year, 35% at 5 years, and 52% at ...
