Background and Aims
Kidney stone is a highly prevalent disease worldwide that causes high morbidity and may increase the risk for chronic kidney disease. Urine pH influences the crystallization of some types of kidney stones, such as calcium phosphate and uric acid. This study aimed to identify whether other acid-base parameters are associated with stone formation in the Swiss kidney stone cohort.
Method
Urinary, serum, clinical, and anthropomorphic baseline data were obtained from the Swiss Kidney Stone Cohort, a prospective, longitudinal, and multi-centric observational study. We included 200 non-stone formers (NSF, determined by CT scan), and 265 calcium oxalate (CaOx) and 113 calcium phosphate (CaP) stone formers with complete data for urine pH (collected under oil). Titratable acids were calculated based on urine phosphate and creatinine levels and urine bicarbonate based on urine pH. Net acid excretion (NAE) was calculated and NAE capacity (NAEC), the NAE for a given urine pH, which reveals the ability of kidneys to excrete acids, was calculated from the residuals of the relation between urine pH and NAE. Logistic regression analyses were used to estimate the potential contributions of various acid-base variables to the occurrence of CaOx or CaP kidney stones. Odds ratio (OR) are reported as “OR [95% confidence interval]”
Results
CaOx stone formers were slightly older than NSF individuals and CaP stone formers (NSF = 42.9 ± 13.6 y.o., CaOx = 47.3 ± 14.3 y.o., CaP = 43.3 ± 12.9 y.o.), slightly more overweight (NSF = 25.0 ± 4.15, CaOx = 27.1 ± 4.72, CaP = 25.9 ± 4.55), and had a higher prevalence of males (NSF = 56.0%, CaOx= 72.1%, CaP = 59.3%), but had similar baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (NSF = 97.1 ± 16.5, CaOx = 96.3 ± 18.3, CaP = 99.5 ± 18.0 ml/min/1.73 m2). Hypertension, type 2 diabetes, pyelonephritis, and nephrocalcinosis were more prevalent among people with either type of kidney stones in comparison with NSFs, while inflammatory bowel disease was more common among CaOx stone formers in comparison with NSF individuals. CaOx and CaP stone formers showed disturbed capacity of excreting acids in relation to NSF (NAEC NSF = 1.81 ± 8.21 µmol/min; CaOx = −1.35 ± 8.45, P < .001; CaP = −0.89 ± 7.66, P = .016) and lower 24 h urine excretion of ammonium (NSF = 19.8 ± 8.70 µmol/min; CaOx = 17.4 ± 8.54, P = .012; CaP = 16.5 ± 8.23, P = .005), but also of citrate, oxalate, and potassium (Table 1). In addition, CaOx exhibited a low |
