Objective To assess urine composition in Chinese patients with urolithiasis.

Nerve-targeted desensitizing toothpastes occlude dentin tubules and induce mineral precipitation.

Am. J. Dent. 25(1) , 26-30, (2012)

To examine the laboratory dentin tubules occlusion and mineral precipitation capability of two potassium salts-containing desensitizing toothpastes.40 dentin disks were obtained and divided into four groups, including artificial saliva (AS), distilled water (...

The effect of sodium bicarbonate upon urinary citrate excretion in calcium stone formers.

Urology 82(1) , 33-7, (2013)

To evaluate the effects of oral sodium bicarbonate (NaBic) supplementation upon urinary citrate excretion in calcium stone formers (CSFs).Sixteen adult calcium stone formers with hypocitraturia were enrolled in a randomized, double-blind, crossover protocol u...

Property changes of urinary nanocrystallites and urine of uric acid stone formers after taking potassium citrate.

Mater. Sci. Eng. C. Mater. Biol. Appl. 33(7) , 4039-45, (2013)

The property changes of urinary nanocrystallites in 20 cases of uric acid (UA) stone formers after 1 week of potassium citrate (K3cit) intake were comparatively studied by X-ray diffraction analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nanoparticle size ...

Metabolic risk factors and the effect of metaphylaxis in pediatric stone disease with hypocitraturia.

Urolithiasis 41(1) , 9-13, (2013)

To describe the metabolic risk factors and investigate the effect of prophylaxis based on these factors on long-term recurrence of urolithiasis in pediatric patients with hypocitraturia. One-hundred and twenty-nine pediatric patients who underwent percutaneou...

[Study indites calcium as a heart breaker. 30 % more myocardial infarcts caused by high dosage calcium preparations].

Kinderkrankenschwester 32(3) , 114, (2013)

Potassium citrate supplementation results in sustained improvement in calcium balance in older men and women.

J. Bone Miner Res. 28(3) , 497-504, (2013)

The dietary acid load created by the typical Western diet may adversely impact the skeleton by disrupting calcium metabolism. Whether neutralizing dietary acid with alkaline potassium salts results in sustained improvements in calcium balance remains controve...

Hypercalciuria associated with high dietary protein intake is not due to acid load.

J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 96(12) , 3733-40, (2011)

Dietary intake of animal proteins is associated with an increase in urinary calcium and nephrolithiasis risk. We tested the hypothesis that the acid load imposed by dietary proteins causes this hypercalciuria.In a short-term crossover metabolic study, an alka...

Splenda® improves tolerance of oral potassium citrate supplementation for prevention of stone formation: results of a randomized double-blind trial.

J. Endourol. 25(9) , 1541-5, (2011)

Oral citrate supplements have been shown to decrease kidney stone recurrence rates in both laboratory and clinical studies. The taste of the citrate supplements, however, is poor, and long-term compliance is low. Our objective was to determine if Splenda(®) a...

The efficacy of medical prophylaxis in children with calcium oxalate urolithiasis after percutaneous nephrolithotomy.

J. Endourol. 27(1) , 92-5, (2013)

To evaluate whether medical prophylaxis decreases calcium oxalate stone recurrences in children after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) or not. To our knowledge this is the first study that evaluates this topic in children after PNL.We researched analysis of...
