WORKSHOP LIFESTYLE AND DIET IN THE PREVENTION OF STONE DISEASE The key role of dietary calcium and sodium G. Gambaro, MD, PhD, A. Gemelli University Hospital Catholic University, Rome
2
Dietary factors and renal stones – rationale
Changes in dietary patterns might explain changes in stone prevalence Geographic differences in stone prevalence Dietary intakes might modify urine composition Urine composition is the driving force of stone formation

NUTRITIONAL RISK FACTORS
Fruits & vegetables Fructose Beverages Vitamins Overweight Calcium Oxalate Sodium Animal protein

Dietary calcium and renal stones
3,560 incident stones Ref. p = 0.40 p = 0.01 p = 0.005 p < 0.001 HPFS ≥60y HPFS <60y NHS I NHS II Q1 503 498 430 525 Q2 633 637 564 696 Q3 748 751 672 832 Q4 893 896 811 1008 Q5 1194 1218 1119 1357 Curhan, Ann Intern Med 1997; Curhan, Arch Intern Med 2004; Taylor, J Am Soc Nephrol 2004

Dietary calcium and urine composition
Borghi, N Engl J Med 2002; Bushinsky, J Am Soc Nephrol 1998
7
The binding of calcium to oxalate in the gut lumen prevents the absorption of the latter
8
Oxalate plays a more important role than calcium in CaOx crystallization

Dietary calcium and renal stones
Low calcium: 23/60 (38%) Normal calcium: 12/60 (20%) HR: 0.49 (0.24, 0.98; p = 0.04) 120 men w/ recurrent CaOx stones & hypercalciuria Group 1: 10 mmol/d Ca Group 2: 30 mmol/d calcium, 52 mmol/d animal protein, 50 mmol/d sodium Follow-up 5 years Borghi, N Engl J Med 2002

Calcium supplements and renal stones
Curhan, N Engl J Med 1993; Ann Intern Med 1997; Arch Intern Med 2004; Jackson, N Engl J Med 2006
11
Calcium supplements and renal stones
Timing of ingestion of calcium supplements? Usually taken without meals Other protective properties of dairy products?
12
Does the source of calcium matter?
Dairy sources Other sources p=0.01 p=0.05 p=0.001 p=0.007 p=0.08 p=0.002 5,270 incident stones Ref. Ref. Taylor, J Urol 2013

22
Dietary sodium and renal stones
↑ urine excretion of sodium (≃dietary intake) increases urine calcium Association between dietary sodium and incident stones in WHI cohort Ref. p < 0.001 78,293 women 50-79y 1,952 incident stones Sorensen, J Urol 2012
23
Dietary sodium and renal stones
↑ urine excretion of sodium (≃dietary intake) increases urine calcium Association between dietary sodium and incident stones in WHI cohort No association in other longitudinal studies (HPFS, NHS I, NHS II) Curhan, Ann Intern Med 1997; Arch Intern Med 2004; Taylor, J Am Soc Nephrol 2004

Dietary sodium and renal stones
↑ urine excretion of sodium (≃dietary intake) increases urine calcium Association between dietary sodium and incident stones in WHI cohort No association in other longitudinal studies (HPFS, NHS I, NHS II) Caveat: assessment of dietary intake of sodium difficult with FFQ
25
Dietary sodium and calciuria and citraturia
↑ urine excretion of sodium (≃dietary intake) increases urine calcium 743 participants (407 F, 336 M) b = 0.01 (100 mmol uNa ≃ ↑ 1 mmol uCa) 90 mmol for 4 days Nouvenne A et al.

Blackwood, J Hum Hypertens 2001; Lemann, Kidney Int 1991 High sodium intake is associated with low urinary citrate excretion 100 mmol uNa ≃ ↓urine citrate by 50 mg

Prezioso D et al. Dietary treatment of urinary risk factors for renal stone formation. A review of CLU Working Group. Archivio Italiano di Urologia e Andrologia 2015; 87(2), 105 Dietary calcium restriction is not recommended for stone formers with nephrolithiasis. Moderate dietary salt restriction is useful in limiting urinary calcium excretion and thus may be helpful for primary and secondary prevention of nephrolithiasis. A diet low in oxalate and/or a calcium intake normal to high ( mg/day for adults) reduce the urinary excretion of oxalate
