RESUMO
ObjectiveTo define the difference of urine analysis result,α1-microglobulin (α1-MG) and β2-microglobulin ( β2-MG) between those patients suffering from calcium oxalate stone,non-calcium oxalate stone and non-urolithiasis controls at the same time period.MethodsData from 100 patients admitted to the Department of Urology,First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from July,2010 to September,2010 were reviewed.66 patients (45 men,21 women) suffered from urolithiasis,and 34 patients (22 men,12 women) were non-urolithiasis.Patients' ages in urolithiasis group varied from 13 to 78 years and the male to female ratio was 2.1∶1.0.The patients in non-urolithiasis controlgroup aged from 12 to 80 years and the male to female ratio was 1.8∶1.0.Blood and urine were taken from the patient the next morning after admission.The biochemistry from blood and 24 h urine were measured by automatic biochemistry analyzer.The α 1-MG and β2-MG content were measured by radioimmunoassay.The stone compositions were analyzed by infrared spectroscopy.ResultsThere was difference in the levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen among three groups ( P ＜ 0.05).In controls,those with calcium oxalate stone had higher level of urinary α1-MG and β2-MG,but there were no differences in the urinary electrolyte levels.Group of non-calcium oxalate stones urinary uric acid levels were higher than calcium oxalate and control groups,the difference was statistically significant.ConclusionsIn the formation of uric acid stones,uric acid increased as independent risk factors.α1-MG,β2-MG may promote the formation of calcium oxalate stones.
RESUMO
Objective To study the relationship between chemical composition of urinary stones and metabolic disturbance. Methods 284 urinary stone patients who had undergone analysis of stone composition were evaluated;of them 191 patients had entire blood biochemistry results and 24-h urine analysis results.The relationship between stone composition and metabolic disturbance was analyzed using ?2 test. Results Calcium oxalate stones were found in 195 cases (68.7%),infection stones in 41 cases ( 14.4%),uric stones in 38 cases (13.4%),phosphate stones in 6 cases (2.1%) and cystine stones in 4 cases (1.4%).Metabolic disturbance was found in 176 (92.1%) of 191 patients with entire blood biochemistry results and 24-h urine analysis results.Among the 176 patients,hypercalciuria occurred in 27 cases (14.1%),hyperuricosuria in 54 cases (28.3%),hyperoxluria in 41 cases (21.5%),hyperphophauria in 55 cases (28.8%),hypocitraturia in 128 cases (67.0%),hypomagnesiuria in 80 cases (41.9%),24-h urine volume
