Abstract
Background Patients with urolithiasis have a lower bone mineral density (BMD) than those without stones, suggesting a potential correlation between calcium stone formation and bone resorption disorders, including osteopenia and osteoporosis. Methods To investigate the influence of BMD on clinical outcomes in urolithiasis, we performed a single-center retrospective cohort study to analyze patients with urolithiasis who underwent both BMD examination and 24-h urine collection between 2006 and 2015. Data from the national cross-sectional surveillance of the Japanese Society on Urolithiasis Research in 2015 were utilized, and additional data related to urinary tract stones were obtained from medical records. The primary outcome was the development of stone-related symptoms and recurrences during follow-up. A total of 370 patients were included in this 10-year study period. Results Half of the patients had recurrent stones, and the two-thirds were symptomatic stone formers. While only 9% of patients had hypercalciuria, 27% and 55% had hyperoxaluria and hypocitraturia, respectively. There was a positive correlation between T-scores and urinary citrate excretion. Both univariate and multivariate analyses demonstrated that female sex was associated with recurrences (odds ratio = 0.44, p = 0.007), whereas a T-score < − 2.5 and hyperoxaluria were associated with symptoms (odds ratio = 2.59, p = 0.037; odds ratio = 0.45, p = 0.01; respectively). Conclusion These results revealed that low T-scores might cause symptoms in patients with urolithiasis, suggesting the importance of BMD examination for high-risk Japanese patients with urolithiasis having hypocitraturia.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Our meta-analysis demonstrates that people with nephrolithiasis have decreased bone mineral density, an increased odds of osteoporosis, and potentially an elevated risk of fractures. INTRODUCTION People with nephrolithiasis might be at risk of reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and fractures, but the data is equivocal. We conducted a meta-analysis to investigate if patients with nephrolithiasis have worse bone health outcomes (BMD), osteoporosis, and fractures versus healthy controls (HCs). METHODS Two investigators searched major databases for articles reporting BMD (expressed as g/cm2 or a T- or Z-score), osteoporosis or fractures in a sample of people with nephrolithiasis, and HCs. Standardized mean differences (SMDs), 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for BMD parameters; in addition odds (ORs) for case-control and adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) in longitudinal studies for categorical variables were calculated. RESULTS From 1816 initial hits, 28 studies were included. A meta-analysis of case-control studies including 1595 patients with nephrolithiasis (mean age 41.1 years) versus 3402 HCs (mean age 40.2 years) was conducted. Patients with nephrolithiasis showed significant lower T-scores values for the spine (seven studies; SMD = -0.69; 95 % CI = -0.86 to -0.52; I 2 = 0 %), total hip (seven studies; SMD = -0.82; 95 % CI = -1.11 to -0.52; I 2 = 72 %), and femoral neck (six studies; SMD = -0.67; 95 % CI = --1.00 to -0.34; I 2 = 69 %). A meta-analysis of the case-controlled studies suggests that people with nephrolithiasis are at increased risk of fractures (OR = 1.15, 95 % CI = 1.12-1.17, p < 0.0001, studies = 4), while the risk of fractures in two longitudinal studies demonstrated trend level significance (HR = 1.31, 95 % CI = 0.95-1.62). People with nephrolithiasis were four times more likely to have osteoporosis than HCs (OR = 4.12, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Nephrolithiasis is associated with lower BMD, an increased risk of osteoporosis, and possibly, fractures. Future screening/preventative interventions targeting bone health might be indicated.

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze the presence of phosphocalcic metabolism disorders in patients with osteopenia-osteoporosis without nephrolithiasis with respect to a control group. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted in patients with osteopenia-osteoporosis without nephrolithiasis (n = 67) in lumbar spine or femur and in a control group (n = 61) with no lithiasis or bone disorders. Blood bone markers, phosphocalcic metabolism, fasting urine, 24-h urine lithogenic risk factors, and densitometry were recorded in both groups. SPSS 20.0 was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS In comparison with the controls, significantly higher blood calcium (9.27 ± 0.36 vs. 9.57 ± 0.38, p = 0.0001), intact parathormone (45.6 ± 14.9 vs. 53.8 ± 18.9, p = 0.008), and alkaline phosphatase (61.9 ± 20.9 vs. 70.74 ± 18.9, p = 0.014) levels were found in patients with osteopenia-osteoporosis. In the 24-h urine test, citrate (1010.7 ± 647.8 vs. 617.6 ± 315.8, p = 0.0001) and oxalate (28.21 ± 17.65 vs. 22.11 ± 16.49, p = 0.045) levels were significantly lower in osteopenia-osteoporosis patients than in controls, with no significant difference in calcium (187.3 ± 106.9 vs. 207.06 ± 98.12, p = 0.27) or uric acid (540.7 ± 186.2 vs. 511.9 ± 167.06, p = 0.35) levels. Patients with osteopenia-osteoporosis had significantly higher levels of lithogenic risk factors associated with bone remodeling, including significantly increased β-crosslaps and osteocalcin values and higher β-crosslaps/osteocalcin ratios. CONCLUSION Patients with osteopenia-osteoporosis without nephrolithiasis showed phosphocalcic metabolism disorders as well as lower urinary citrate and higher β-crosslaps/osteocalcin and fasting calcium/creatinine ratios, which would increase the risk of nephrolithiasis. Hence, prospective studies are warranted to evaluate the long-term risks.

Abstract
Introduction: Scientific studies indicate that there is a correlation between decreased bone mineral density and the age of the patient, especially in post menopausal women. Goal: The aim of our study was to assess the connection between osteoporosis and the age of respondents, based on the DEXA findings in patients with calcium urolithiasis. Material and methods: The study was prospectively and conducted in University Clinical Center Banja Luka, at the Urology Clinic and Clinic of Internal Medicine. In this study the respondents were divided into two groups: experimental group–subjects with calcium urolithiasis and control group without calcium urolithiasis. The study included 240 patients, in both groups of 120 patients who were divided into three age groups: 20-40 years, 40-60 years and more than 60 years. In both groups of respondents was conducted determination of bone mineral density in L2-L4 vertebra lumbar spine and hip by DEXA method. Results: Observing the whole sample of the experimental group, according to age groups it can be noticed that DEXA results are at 72.5% normal, 27.5% below expected value, more in women within older subgroups, 20% show signs of osteopenia and osteoporosis in 7.5 %. Share of patients with osteoporosis is statistically different (p<0.05) only between sub-groups 20-40 years and over 60 years. Although appears absolute difference in the participation of patients with osteopenia by age groups, the differences are not statistically significant (p>0.05). The share of patients with normal DEXA values was significantly lower in the group over 60 years compared to the other two age groups (p<0.05). At age subgroups of the control group, the youngest group of respondents share with normal DEXA finding is 95% and among the oldest group (over 60 years) this share is much lower and is 60%, which represents a statistically significant difference, and confirms the relationship (p<0.01). Normal DEXA findings decreases with increasing years, the share of those who do not have normal findings is higher in the elderly population. Conclusion: Our study has just shown that in adult patients with calcium urolithiasis osteoporosis is more prevalent in older patients and more pronounced in patients with calcium urolithiasis in relation to the population without the same.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To establish the relationship between calcium nephrolithiasis, bone densitometry scoring, and bone mineral density (BMD) loss according to bone turnover markers (BTMs) and urinary metabolites. RECENT FINDINGS Patients with recurrent calcium nephrolithiasis and idiopathic fasting hypercalciuria (urinary calcium/creatinine ratio >0.11) are more likely to have BMD loss that may lead to osteopenia or osteoporosis. In these patients, BTMs may be used as a surrogate for both bone health and stone recurrence. Suspect higher lithogenic states when calcium stone formers have serum beta-crosslaps (resorptive marker) greater than 0.311 ng/ml, serum osteocalcin (formative marker) greater than 13.2 ng/ml, and beta-crosslaps/osteocalcin ratio greater than 0.024. SUMMARY Patients with recurrent calcium nephrolithiasis and fasting hypercalciuria have a higher incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis, measured by the dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. These patients present not only with hypercalciuria and increased BTMs (mainly resorptive), but also up to 30% have hypocitraturia and increased urinary calcium/citrate ratio (>0.25). On the basis of these results, a diagnostic algorithm was created, classifying hypercalciurics according to their fasting calcium/creatinine and calcium/citrate ratio. Medical therapy for these patients is aimed at improving the dietary habits (normocalcemic, low salt, low animal protein diet), prescribing combinations of potassium citrate, thiazides, and bisphosphonates, and correcting bone and urinary abnormalities that may lower future skeletal and kidney stone risk.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recurrent kidney stones are associated with bone mineral density loss, altered bone remodeling markers, hypercalciuria and increased in fasting calcium/creatinine ratio. The objective was to determine biochemical alterations in urine in patients with osteopenia/osteoporosis without calcium kidney stones compared with patients with calcium kidney stones. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study including 142 patients who were divided in two groups: Group 1 (patients with recurrent calcium kidney stones) and Group 2 (patients with osteopenia/osteoporosis in the lumbar spine or hip). Analyses of bone mineral density, calcium-phosphorous and bone metabolism and lithogenic risk factors in fasting urine samples and 24-h urine samples were performed. Statistical analysis was carried out with SPSS 17.0. A p ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Patients in Group 2 presented greater loss of bone mineral density and more elevated alkaline phosphatase, iPTH, phosphorous and β-crosslaps levels, as compared to patients in Group 1. However, Group 1 presented greater urine calcium, oxalate and uric acid and a higher proportion of hypocitraturia, hypercalciuria and hyperoxaluria, as compared to Group 2. Multivariate analysis revealed that advanced age and β-crosslaps levels are risk factors for bone mineral density loss, while low urinary calcium excretion was protective against bone demineralization. CONCLUSION Patients with osteopenia/osteoporosis without lithiasis present some urinary biochemical alterations. This would explain the lack of lithogenic activity, although low calcium excretion in 24-h urine samples is a protective factor against the loss of bone mineral density.

Abstract
Introduction. Clinical researches have shown an increased bone disintegration and lower bone mass in patients with calcium urolithiasis. Goal. The goal of our research was to establish the incidence of osteoporosis in adult patients with calcium urolithiasis, on the basis of measuring mineral bone density, using DEXA method, with a special reflection on age subgroups. Material and methods. Clinical research was prospective and it was implemented at the University Clinical Center of Banja Luka, at the Clinic for Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases and at the Urology Clinic. Material in this research consisted of patients divided in two groups, a working and a control group. One hundred and twenty (120) patients were included in both these groups, divided in three age subgroups: 20-40, 40-60 and over 60. The working group consisted of the patients with calcium urolithiasis and the control group consisted of patients without calcium urolithiasis. Establishing of mineral bone density at L2-L4 of lumbal spine vertebrae and hip was done for the patients in both these groups, using DEXA method. Results. Analysis of mineral bone density using DEXA method in patients in age groups of working and control groups, as well as in the total sample of working and control groups, have shown that the patients of the working group, over 60, had a decreased mineral bone density (30% of osteopenia and 15% osteoporosis) significantly more expressed when compared to the other two age groups (12.5% in the subgroup 20-40 and 17.5% in the subgroup 40-60), which presents a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). In the control group, when taking into account age groups, osteopenia and osteoporosis were marked in 37.5% and 2.5% in the group of patients over 60, whereas in the youngest population, 5% of osteopenia was found, which presents a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). When observing the total sample of working and control group, there was a statistically significant difference in the working and control group (p<0.01); incidence of osteoporosis in the working group amounted to 7.5% and in the control group it was 0.8%. Conclusion. Urolithiasis and osteoporosis are two multifactorial diseases which are evidently reciprocal. This is why we suggest that educating the population about the risk factors for occurrence of these diseases as well as preventive measures that may contribute to their decrease should begin as early as possible.

Abstract
CONTEXT Calcium Nephrolithiasis is a multifactorial disease; in its pathophysiology is involved various minerals and metabolic factors that may be altered, including bone and phosphor-calcium metabolism. OBJECTIVE To establish the scientific evidence and demonstrate the relationship between calcium nephrolithiasis and bone mineral density loss, through the use of bone turnover markers, serum and urinary metabolites. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION We performed a PubMed literature review using different MeSH Terms like "Nephrolithiasis", "Bone mineral density", "Urinary stones", "Calcium", Bone resorption" and "Bone formation", with different combinations. We only selected articles with abstracts in English or Spanish and discarded clinical cases and articles with inappropriate statistical study. A total of 40 articles were selected. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS In different studies reviewed have been observed that patients with hypercalciuria have a higher bone mineral density loss with respect to normocalciuric. Among patients with calcium stones (normocalciuric or hypercalciuric), there is loss of bone mineral density, being more evident in patients with stones and hypercalciuria. This mineral density loss is marked and important in patients with recurrent calcium stones. Increased markers like fasting calcium/creatinine and β-CrossLaps are determinant of nephrolithiasis and mineral density loss in these patients. CONCLUSION We recommend perform markers of bone turnover and fasting calcium/creatinine in patients with recurrent calcium stones by the significant presence of bone mineral density loss, with a level of evidence III.

Abstract
Purpose The target of our work was to study several biochemical parameters in phospho-calcic and bone metabolism in blood and urine and the bone mineral density of women with recurrent calcium nephrolithiasis. Materials and Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study with a control group of 85 women divided into 3 groups: group 1 consisted of 25 women without a history of nephrolithiasis, group 2 consisted of 35 women with only one episode of calcium nephrolithiasis, and group 3 consisted of 25 women with a history of recurrent calcium nephrolithiasis. Blood and urine biochemical study was performed, including markers related to lithiasis, and a bone mineral density study was done by use of bone densitometry. Results Patients in group 3 showed statistically significantly elevated calciuria (15.4 mg/dL), fasting calcium/creatinine ratio (0.14), and 24-hour calcium/creatinine ratio (0.21) compared with groups 1 and 2. Moreover, this group of women with recurrent calcium nephrolithiasis had significantly elevated values of beta-crosslaps, a bone resorption marker, compared with groups 1 and 2 (p=0.000) and showed more bone mineral density loss than did these groups. Conclusions Recurrent calcium nephrolithiasis in women has a significant association with bone mineral density loss and with values of calciuria, both fasting and 24-hour.

Abstract
PURPOSE Our objective was to evaluate the association between low bone mineral density (BMD) and incidental renal stones among long-term survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). METHODS Adult participants who were 10+ years from their childhood ALL diagnosis and members of the St. Jude Lifetime Cohort study were recruited between December 2007 and March 2011. During their risk-based medical evaluations, they underwent quantitative computed tomography (QCT) to evaluate BMD. Incidental renal stones were identified by radiologists' review of axial QCT source images. Demographic and dietary information were abstracted from health surveys and the Block Food Frequency questionnaire, respectively. The multivariable logistic regression model was used for analysis. RESULTS At a median of 26.1 years from diagnosis, BMD Z scores were ≤-2 in 34 of 662 (5.2 %) and renal stones detected in 73 of 662 (11 %) participants. Adjusted for age, renal radiation, dietary vitamin D, gender, and body mass index, when compared to those with BMD Z scores ≥0, the risk of renal stones was increased among those with BMD Z scores ≤-2 (odds ratio [OR], 2.92; 95 % confidence interval [CI] 1.14-7.48). Risk of renal stones significantly increased for older age (45-54 vs.18-24 years; OR, 3.70; 95 % CI 1.11-12.35) whereas the risk was higher but nonsignificant for >141.5 IU (sample median) daily intake of vitamin D (OR, 1.64; 95 % CI 0.98-2.75). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS Older ALL survivors with BMD Z scores ≤-2 are at risk for renal stones and should be counseled so that appropriate follow-up care can be provided for those among whom renal stones are detected.

Abstract
We hypothesized an association between renal calculi and bone mineral density (BMD) deficits, shown in adults, exists in survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Thus, we analyzed the associations between quantitative computed tomography (QCT)-determined renal calcifications and clinical parameters (gender, race, age at diagnosis and age at the time of QCT), BMD, treatment exposures and Tanner stage. We investigated the associations between stone formation and nutritional intake, serum and urinary calcium and creatinine levels, and urinary calcium/creatinine ratio. Exact chi(2)-test was used to compare categorical patient characteristics, and the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test to compare continuous measurements. Of 424 participants, 218 (51.4%) were males; 371 (87.5%) were nonblack. Most (n=270; 63.7%) were >or=3.5 years at ALL diagnosis. Mean (s.d.) and median (range) BMD Z-scores of the entire cohort were -0.4 (1.2) and -0.5 (-3.9 to 5.1), respectively. Nineteen participants (10 males; 10 Caucasians) had kidney stones (observed prevalence of 4.5%; 19/424) with a significant negative association between stone formation and body habitus (body mass index, P=0.003). Stone formation was associated with treatment protocol (P=0.009) and treatment group (0.007). Thus, kidney stones in childhood ALL survivors could herald the future deterioration of renal function and development of hypertension. Long-term follow-up imaging may be warranted in these patients to monitor for progressive morbidity.

Abstract
An 11-year-old acute lymphoblastic leukemia patient suddenly developed severe abdominal flank pain and hematuria caused by renal stone during induction chemotherapy. The patient was treated with forced hydration, and the pain was relieved after the renal stone passed through. The renal stone was composed of calcium phosphate. The patient is currently in continuous complete remission, has had no recurrence of the urolithiasis, and is on consolidation chemotherapy. Although urolithiasis is extremely rare in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia, it should be considered in patients who complain of abdominal flank pain or back pain during chemotherapy.
