Correspondence between Ca(2+) and calciuria, citrate level and pH of urine in pediatric urolithiasis

BACKGROUND: Hypercalciuria and hypocitraturia are considered the most important risk factors for urolithiasis. Citrate binds to urinary calcium to form a soluble complex which decreases the availability of ionized calcium (Ca(2+)) necessary for calcium oxalate formation and phosphate crystallization...
