Abstract
Calcium excretion and absorption were evaluated in hypercalciuric calcium stone formers by the study of Sr2+ excretion and absorption after an oral load. Ca2+ stone formers (n = 140) were studied, and the results were compared in the 83 of them who had idiopathic hypercalciuria and in the 57 who had Ca2+ excretion within reference values. Hypercalciuric patients showed increased renal Sr2+ clearance (CRE; 5.26 +/- 0.358 vs 3.29 +/- 0.277 mL/min; P <0.001), whereas Sr2+ absorption [assessed as the area under the serum concentration-time curve (AUC)] was increased at 30 and 60 min (1.53 +/- 0.087 vs 1.21 +/- 0.071 mmol. L-1. min; P <0.05), but not at 240 min after the load. In hypercalciuric patients, the AUCs were positively correlated with urinary Sr2+ fractional excretion (P <0. 001). Conversely, in normocalciuric patients plasma parathyroid hormone (PTH) was negatively correlated with the AUCs (P <0.01) and CRE (P <0.05), whereas 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D plasma concentrations normalized to PTH were positively correlated with the AUCs (P <0.05). The results of Sr2+ load tests suggest that in the hypercalciuric population, Ca2+ absorption is altered predominantly in the duodenum and that the normal regulation exerted by calciotropic hormones on tubular and enteral Ca2+ handling is lost.Pubblicazioni consigliate
