Associations of adiposity, kidney stone disease, and serum calcium concentrations; observational and genetic epidemiological studies
2022-06-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Kidney stone disease (KSD) is linked to obesity, metabolic syndrome and biochemical alterations including higher serum calcium concentration. The mechanisms by which these phenotypes associate with KSD are uncertain. We aimed to establish the effects of adiposity on KSD using conventional and genetic epidemiological techniques. <h4>Methods</h4> We assessed observational associations between mea...
