...Walter Ludwig Strohmaier; Jürgen Seilnacht; Gernot Schubert Background: Citrate is one of the most important inhibitors in urolithiasis. Hypocitraturia is a common risk factor in stone formers. Citrate excretion is regulated – amongst others – by acidosis and protein intake. A considerable number...

...Palle Jörn Osther; Henning Mathiasen; Annebirthe Bo Hansen; Hans Melchior Nissen Urinary acidification ability, acid-base status and urinary excretion of calcium and citrate were evaluated in 10 women with bilateral medullary sponge kidney (MSK) and in 10 healthy women. Patients with MSK had higher...

... or magnesium and assessing the protective efficacies against the crystallizations by treatment with phytin and sodium citrate. With increase of calcium intake and consequent increase of urinary calcium excretion there was a marked increase in the amount of tubular deposit of calcium oxalate crystal...

...H.H. Knispel; R. Fitzner; M. Kaiser; M. Butz An acute acid load was used to evaluate potential chemical differences of urinary composition in recurrent oxalate stone formers and healthy controls. After intake of ammonium chloride, total calcium, ionized calcium and magnesium increased and citrate...

...Jun Chen; Zhishun Xu; Haifeng Zhao; Xianzhou Jiang Introduction: Normal human prostatic secretion is remarkably rich in citrate (EPS-citrate). Prostate inflammation will result in reduction of EPS-citrate level. So EPS-citrate was determined to investigate whether EPS-citrate level was also...

... institution. Beside a broad serum analysis, concentrations of calcium, oxalate, magnesium, uric acid and citrate were measured in 24-hour collected urine. Saturation of urine was calculated by Marshall-Robertson’s nomograms. Results: Hypocitraturia, observed in 60.6%, and hypomagnesuria, detected in 39.4...

... is increased by Tamm-Horsfall protein and that an increased uric acid content in the urine might cause a decrease in Tamm-Horsfall protein. In 20 patients with uric calculi the excretion of Tamm-Horsfall protein, uric acid, calcium, and citrate was measured. 65% of the patients had pure uric acid stones (group...
