Aims & Objectives: To evaluate the effects of Serum Calcium and Urinary Calcium excretion on upper urinary tract stone diseases in the Peshawar (a high stone incidence belt). Subjects & Methods: One hundred patients (age 20-60years) who were suffering severely from upper urinary tract stone disease were selected from LRH and Hayatabad Medical Complex Hospitals of Peshawar, same numbers of healthy controls from the same region were also selected for the study. Results: When results were summed up and testParameters were compared, it was seen that mean Serum Calcium in stone formers was greater than that of non-stone formers (P<0.001). Same pattern was also observed (P< 0.001) in both groups regarding mean urinary calcium excretion. Conclusions: We concluded that calcium is a definitive risk factor in upper urinary tract stone disease. However we suggest further work and research on wide scale population inorder to evaluate this relation.

Abstract Studies in 24 recurrent oxalate stone-formers have shown that values for urinary calcium excretion for this group on at-home diets vary significantly (P less than 0.001) more than values for creatinine excretions. By placing stone-formers on controlled in-hospital diets and measuring their calcium excretions, we were able to predict probable outpatient hypercalciuria (greater than 7.5 mmol/day) with a sensitivity of 95% and a specificity of 95%. In this study, the renal loss of calcium during low-calcium diets was proportional to the absorptive hypercalciuria during high-calcium diets. Calcium loading experiments in fasted stone-formers and normal subjects indicated that citrate, at citrate:calcium molar ratios ranging from 0.12 to 1, stimulated urinary calcium excretion more than did calcium carbonate loading alone. In addition, citrate also significantly (P less than 0.05) increased the excretion of urinary oxalate by two normal subjects for a given load of calcium oxalate. Malabsorption of citrate and possibly other hydroxycarboxylic acids may thus predispose to oxalate nephrolithiasis by promoting calcium and oxalate absorption.

Urinary Oxalate Excretion

Abstract Background and Aims In the primary hyperoxalurias (PH; types 1-3) recurrent urolithiasis (UL) and/or progressive nephrocalcinosis (NC) are the clinical hallmarks. Three different enzyme defects lead to endogenous oxalate overproduction and to extremely elevated urinary oxalate excretion (UOx). Thus, it seems logical that urine is supersaturated for calcium-oxalate (CaOx). It was, hence, speculated that urinary CaOx saturation (ßCaOx), calculated by computed programs, is significantly higher as compared to that of patients with idiopathic CaOx stones. We now aimed to evaluate and calculate urinary ßCaOx in PH patients according to type, as well as in non-PH patients with UL or NC. Method The computed equilibrium program EQUIL2 was used for the calculation of ßCaOx. For this, 24 h urine specimen of 70 patients with non-PH NC (46 male, 24 female, median age 6.06 (range 0.3-31.4 years)), of 149 idiopathic CaOx UL (90/59 m/f, age 8.5 (0.1-68.6)), of 51 PH 1 patients (31/21, age 12.33 (0.8-63.8)), of 5 PH 2 patients (3/2, age 5.41 (4.3-12.9)) and of 14 PH 3 patients (8/6, age 8.5 (2.9-29.3)) were analyzed for all necessary components. All patients were in stable kidney function (eGFR &gt; 45 ml/min). Results Uox was higher in the PH patients as compared to the non-PH UL or NC patients (p &lt; 0.05). However, there was no statistical difference between the Uox in PH 1 vs PH 2 or PH 3 patients, although, a clear effect of B6 medication was visible in PH1 patients. Urinary calcium excretion was lower (not significant) in PH patients as compared to NC/UL. There was no difference in ßCaOx when PH were compared to non-PH patients and it mostly remained in the normal range. Conclusion Urine ßCaOx is similar in PH and non-PH stone formers. Therefore, calculation of ßCaOx using computed programs is not a reliable parameter to define the definitively extreme CaOx supersaturation of urine from PH patients. This miscalculation is related to a rather lowish urinary calcium excretion in PH as compared to other UL/NC patients. Therefore, we recommend not to use such programs to express the risk of recurrent stone disease or nephrocalcinosis in PH.
