Abstract:
A study was performed on contributing factors of stone formation, such as serum and urinary calcium, inorganic phosphorus and serum PTH in 63 patients with renal stone comparing those in 45 controls. The following results were obtained. 1. The mean values of serum calcium levels of patients were significantly higher than those of controls in total male and female. And those of urinary calcium levels of patients were significantly higher than those of controls in total and female but not in male. 2. The mean values of serum and urinary inorganic phosphorus levels did not show significant difference between patients and controls. 3. The mean values of serum parathyroid hormone levels of patients were higher than those of controls, but did not show significant difference between both groups. 4. The incidences of hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, hyperphosphatemia and elevated serum parathyroid hormone levels of patients were higher then those of controls, but showed significant difference between both groups in hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria.
