Abstract:
Kidney stones is the most common urinary system disease, among which calcium oxalate stones are the most common. The pharmacological treatment of calcium oxalate stones currently in use is associated with low compliance and a high incidence of adverse reactions. In recent years, plant extracts have demonstrated considerable potential in inhibiting renal calcium oxalate stones. This article introduces the role of plant extracts, including polysaccharides, polyphenols, alkaloids, flavonoids and organic acids, in the inhibition of calcium oxalate stones. It also provides a theoretical basis for the clinical prevention and treatment of calcium oxalate stones.
