Urinary stone disease and obesity: Different pathologies sharing common biochemical mechanisms

Abstract: The prevalence of urolithiasis is increasing in parallel with the escalating rate of obesity worldwide. It has previously been speculated that obesity is a potential risk factor for urinary stone disease. The possibility that common biochemical mechanisms underlie both obesity and urolithiasis is remarkable. Better understanding of possible common mechanisms of these diseases could potentially lead to a better management of urinary stone prevention. The prevention of urinary stone formation gives clinicians an… Show more

“…According to Ozdu Aydogdu the prevalence of urolithiasis increases with obesity. [15][16][17] The distribution of urolithiasis patients based on location of stones was mostly found in the upper urinary tract: kidneys (59.41%) and ureter (34.20%). These results are in accordance with the literature which states that stones are more likely to form in the upper urinary tract.…”

“…Pada studi sebelumnya ditemukan hubungan positif antara IMT dengan kadar natrium, amonium, asam urat, dan fosfat dalam urin serta hubungan terbalik dengan pH urin. 5 Keadaan pH urin menentukan jenis bahan yang akan berpresipitasi. 6 Analisis urin (urinalisis) adalah tes yang dilakukan terhadap urin, untuk mengetahui kandungan yang terdapat dalam urin.…”

“…8 Penelitian sebelumnya menemukan bahwa 63% urolitiasis pada orang obes ialah batu asam urat. 5 Keadaan obes dan hiperurisemia dipengaruhi oleh konsumsi makanan dan gaya hidup. Konsumsi purin tinggi, konsumsi protein tinggi, keadaan vaskuler, dan kegagalan ginjal untuk mengekskresi mendukung terjadinya keadaan ini.…”
