Component

Calcium oxalate stone recurrence

Process or measured study endpoint, not a chemical species; outcome definition is retained in claim context.

1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does

Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.

What acts on it

  1. A normal-calcium diet with less animal protein and salt reduced stone recurrence compared with a low-calcium diet.

    120 hypercalciuric male recurrent stone formers; five-year randomized comparison.
    exposure
    Recurrences 12/60 versus 23/60; RR 0.49, 95% CI 0.24-0.98. Calcium 30 versus 10 mmol/day; intervention also reduced animal protein and salt.
    limitations
    Multiple dietary components changed together, preventing isolated calcium attribution.
