Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a clustering of risk factors including high blood glucose, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and obesity that lead to the increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), which are among leading causes of death in the world. Metabolic syndrome increases the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus and CVDs by approximately five and three folds, respectively. Therefore, it is of vital importance to manage such conditions with herbal options which have less undesirable adverse effects and may be more efficacious in comparison with synthetic options. Avocado is a well-known source of carotenoids, minerals, phenolics, vitamins, and fatty acids. The lipid-lowering, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, anti-obesity, antithrombotic, antiatherosclerotic, and cardioprotective effects of avocado have been demonstrated in several studies. In this review, we aimed to find out avocado's pharmacological effects on different components of MetS. Moreover, this review report is performed on the MetS effects of peel, seed, flesh, and leaves of avocado. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Kidney stones or nephrolithiasis is one of the most common urologic diseases worldwide and places a heavy burden on human health. The annual prevalence of kidney stones is estimated at 3-5% and the approximate lifetime prevalence is 15-25% worldwide 1. Kidney stone formation is a biological process involving the crystallization of several urinary minerals. These urinary stones develop when the minerals in urine aggregate and grow instead of being dissolved and passed out of the body 2. Kidney stones are predominantly (approximately 80%) composed of calcium oxalates and calcium phosphates, of which 70% are calcium oxalate stones 3. Calcium oxalate exists in three forms-monohydrate (COM, CaC 2 H 4 •H 2 O), dihydrate (COD, CaC 2 H 4 •2H 2 O), and trihydrate (COT,
