The purpose of this guideline is to provide a clinical framework for the diagnosis, prevention and follow-up adult patients with kidney stones based on best available published literature.The primary source evidence was systematic review conducted by Agency Healthcare Research Quality recurrent nephrolithiasis in adults. To augment broaden body AHRQ report, AUA supplementary searches articles from 2007 through 2012 that were systematically reviewed using methodology developed priori. In...
Knowledge of the citric acid content beverages may be useful in nutrition therapy for calcium urolithiasis, especially among patients with hypocitraturia. Citrate is a naturally-occurring inhibitor urinary crystallization; achieving therapeutic citrate concentration one clinical target medical management urolithiasis. When provided as fluids, containing add to total volume urine, reducing its saturation and other crystals, enhance excretion. Information on fruit juices commercially-available...
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) increase osteoporotic fracture risk presumably via hypochlorhydria and consequent reduced fractional calcium absorption (FCA). Existing studies provide conflicting information regarding the direct effects of PPIs on FCA. We evaluated effect PPI therapy recruited women at least 5 years past menopause who were not taking acid suppressants. Participants underwent three 24-hour inpatient FCA using dual stable isotope method. Two performed 1 month apart to establish...
Urolithiasis is associated with pain and other decreases in health related quality of life, yet there no urolithiasis specific instrument to measure life. Quality life an important end point the management urolithiasis. Therefore, we developed Wisconsin StoneQOL, a disease assess patients urolithiasis.Patients urology providers identified concepts stone formers groups individual cognitive interviews. Patients were recurrent including those without current stones. A preliminary was created,...

We sought to compare the clinical effectiveness of pulse-modulated Ho:YAG (holmium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet) laser and thulium fiber for ureteroscopic stone management in a randomized trial. The primary outcome was ureteroscope time required adequately fragment stones 1 mm or less. Secondary outcomes were stone-free rate, complications, subjective surgeon measurement performance, patient related quality life outcomes, measurements efficiency.

Antioxidant defenses may be compromised in osteoporotic women. Little is known about fruit and vegetable or carotenoid consumption among postmenopausal The primary carotenoids human serum are alpha- beta-carotene, lycopene, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin. This study investigated the interrelationships concentrations, intake, osteoporosis women (n = 59, 62.7 +/- 8.8 y). Bone density was assessed by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry diagnosis based upon T-scores. Serum samples 53)...
We analyzed the impact of residual stone fragments seen on abdominal x-ray after ureteroscopy and laser lithotripsy risk repeat surgical intervention.Our study included 781 patients (802 renal units) who underwent with within 3 months postoperatively had at least 1 year followup. Ureteroscopy were performed using dusting technique. association between recurrence-free survival size largest fragment.During a median followup 4.2 years surgery was 161 units (20%). Of interventions 75% done for...
Urolithiasis is a common disease with multiple etiologies and risk factors. Studies suggest an increased incidence in developed nations recent decades as well differential geographic prevalence rates, differences between the genders. We updated urolithiasis epidemiological data by examining rates stable rural Wisconsin population.Data were obtained from Marshfield Epidemiologic Study Area database, surveillance tool created 1991 to track residents of area 24 ZIP Codes including approximately...
Kidney stone patients have lower health-related quality of life (HRQOL) than nonstone formers. Among active (those with stones), those symptoms HRQOL without. However, little is known about whether asymptomatic stones affect patients' HRQOL.A sample formers was assembled by identifying who reported no on the disease-specific Wisconsin Stone Quality Life (WiSQoL) questionnaire (n=351). Of these, 107 were identified (M:F 61:46; 53±17 years; BMI 29.5±7.6). Patients mostly recurrent (78%), and...
Obesity is associated with multiple health risks. Bariatric surgery a treatment for clinically severe obesity and known to increase urolithiasis risk. However, trends in risk over time are not well characterized. Moreover little attention has been devoted laparoscopic gastric band placement. A comparison of urinary after the Roux-en-Y banding procedures was performed.We evaluated 24-hour urine collections from 39 subjects (11 male 28 female, mean age 51 years) bariatric surgery. Of these 27...
To evaluate, in a posthoc analysis of previous study, whether vitamin D repletion postmenopausal women with insufficient increases urinary calcium excretion, as therapy might contribute to hypercalciuria and stones susceptible individuals, the effect on risk urolithiasis warrants attention.We recruited 18 at > or =5 years after menopause who had insufficiency (serum 25(OH)-vitamin D, 16-24 mg/dL). We excluded history kidney disease. Women one absorption study when D-insufficient, received...
Cystinuria is a rare cause of urolithiasis. Affected patients have an earlier onset and more aggressive disease than with other stone etiologies. We assessed the health-related quality life (HRQOL) cystine stone-forming using disease-specific Wisconsin Stone Quality Life questionnaire (WISQOL).Cystine treated in our clinics (n = 12) completed WISQOL; information about medical histories was gathered. Patients were matched noncystine formers for gender, age, comorbidities. In addition, second...
Kidney stone formers have lower health related quality of life than nonstone formers. The North American Stone Quality Life Consortium is a multicenter, longitudinal, prospective study in patients with kidney stones using the WISQOL (Wisconsin Questionnaire) data on 2,052 from total 11 centers. This subanalysis cross-sectional looking at association age, gender and race formers.We performed multivariable analyses ordinal logistic regression to determine impact life, adjusting for other...
