The latter indicates reduced tubular reabsorption of calcium and is present in hypoparathyroidism and metabolic acidosis; it does not contribute directly to calcium stone disease. [indiana.pure.elsevier.com]

• Chills

  Patients with obstructing struvite calculi (i.e., stones associated with urinary infection) may present with fevers, chills, and flank pain. These patients are at risk of progressing to sepsis or death. [aafp.org]

• Calcium Decreased

  […] hypercalciuria phosphate leak leads to decreased renal resorption of calcium decreased renal resorption of calcium is primary defect Sensitivity and Specificity Renal hypercalciuria is defined by fasting (ie sample 2) calcium/creatinine ratio > 0.36 [pathology.leedsth.nhs.uk]

  The disease-oriented changes in urine characteristics were predictable: urinary calcium decreased in both groups, but oxalate secretion increased in the low-calcium group, causing greater calcium oxalate saturation. [mdedge.com]

If diagnosed promptly and appropriate treatment is provided, then the outlook is good If the individual responds to various treatment measures, the prognosis is generally better, compared to those who do not respond favorably to treatment Additional and [dovemed.com]

Several pharmacological treatments have been described that can decrease the levels of urinary calcium or its index of urinary crystallization. [cochrane.org]

They were randomly allocated to treatment group or control group. The mean age of the patients in the treatment group was 8.02 ± 1.67 years, and in control group was 8.47 ± 1.64 years ( P = 0.20). [sjkdt.org]

A variety of genes participating in the mechanisms of Ca homeostasis, have attracted the interest of researchers in order to elucidate the pathogenetic mechanism of the disease and thus determining the appropriate treatment for any distinct patient. [eurekaselect.com]

Early treatment of reversible causes of renal failure, such as treatment of urinary infections, calculous obstruction and hypertension, is essential. Once renal failure is established, it must be treated accordingly. [patient.info]

What is the Prognosis of Idiopathic Hypercalciuria? (Outcomes/Resolutions) The prognosis of Idiopathic Hypercalciuria depends on the severity of the condition. [dovemed.com]

Prognosis The prognosis depends mainly on the aetiology of the nephrocalcinosis. [patient.info]

Treatment options for hypercalciuria depend on the etiology. B ecause most cases are idiopathic, initial therapy involves aggressive hydration. [johnsarm.net]

Crystallographic analysis of retrieved calculus remnants can help identify the underlying etiology and may obviate a complete metabolic evaluation. [aafp.org]

Renal Hypercalciuria Sometimes called "renal calcium leak," these patients have an increased excretion of calcium without an inciting etiology. [bradyurology.blogspot.com]
