Metabolic syndrome and uric acid nephrolithiasis.
The metabolic syndrome describes a cluster of metabolic features that increases the risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. The prevalence of uric acid nephrolithiasis is higher among stone-forming patients with features of the metabolic syndrome such as obesity and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus. The major determinant in the development of idiopathic uric acid stones is an a...
متن کاملUric Acid Nephrolithiasis: A Systemic Metabolic Disorder.
Uric acid nephrolithiasis is characteristically a manifestation of a systemic metabolic disorder. It has a prevalence of about 10% among all stone formers, the third most common type of kidney stone in the industrialized world. Uric acid stones form primarily due to an unduly acid urine; less deciding factors are hyperuricosuria and a low urine volume. The vast majority of uric acid stone forme...
متن کاملTheobromine Inhibits Uric Acid Crystallization. A Potential Application in the Treatment of Uric Acid Nephrolithiasis
PURPOSE To assess the capacity of methylxanthines (caffeine, theophylline, theobromine and paraxanthine) to inhibit uric acid crystallization, and to evaluate their potential application in the treatment of uric acid nephrolithiasis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The ability of methylxathines to inhibit uric acid nucleation was assayed turbidimetrically. Crystal morphology and its modification due to...

متن کاملMassive uric acid nephrolithiasis with progressive renal failure due to spontaneous tumour lysis syndrome
Tumour lysis syndrome (TLS) is a constellation of meta- bolic complications due to the rapid destruction of malignant cells, causing renal, cardiac or cerebral dysfunction. Electrolyte abnormalities include hyperuricaemia, hyperphosphataemia, hyperkalaemia and hypocalcaemia. TLS-induced renal failure is mainly caused by uric acid and calcium phosphate crystal deposition and usually develops fol...
