Nephrolithiasis

open access: hybridPrimary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2019
Incidence of nephrolithiasis has increased dramatically over the past 30 years, likely due to environmental changes such as dietary habits. Nephrolithiasis presents as acute flank or abdominal pain with nausea and vomiting. Hematuria is present in 90% of cases, but its absence does not rule out nephrolithiasis.

Recurrent Nephrolithiasis and Beyond: The Long Diagnostic Odyssey of a Case of CLDN16 Mutation. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Familial Hypomagnesemia with Hypercalciuria and Nephrocalcinosis (FHHNC) is a rare tubulopathy resulting from mutations in the CLDN16 and CLDN19 genes. The affected individuals commonly present with polyuria, polydipsia, excessive urinary magnesium (Mg) and calcium (Ca) wasting, nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis, recurrent urinary tract ...

Nephrolithiasis [PDF]

open access: yesPrimary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2008
Kidney stones affect more than 5% of adults in the United States, and the prevalence is rising. The fundamental cause for all stones is supersaturation of urine with respect to the stone components; factors affecting solubility include urine volume, pH, and total solute excretion.

The ABCG2 rs2231142 polymorphism and the risk of nephrolithiasis: A case–control study from the Taiwan biobank

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundHyperuricemia and gout are risk factors of nephrolithiasis. However, it is unclear whether the ABCG2 gene contributes to the development of nephrolithiasis.

Pediatric Nephrolithiasis

open access: yesHealthcare, 2023
The prevalence of pediatric nephrolithiasis has increased dramatically in the past two decades for reasons that have yet to be fully elucidated. Workup of pediatric kidney stones should include metabolic assessment to identify and address any risk factors predisposing patients to recurrent stone formation, and treatment should aim to facilitate stone ...
