Calcium Nephrolithiasis
Eligibility:
All Genders

Brief Summary
Accumulating evidence indicated that renal calcium stone formers often exhibit a low bone density. Therefore we want to test the hypothesis, that the mineral (calcium) metabolism is differently regula...
Detailed Description
There is epidemiological evidence associating renal calcium stones and decreased bone mineral density (BMD). The decreased BMD in calcium stone formers is linked to hypercalciuria and both subtypes, f...
