Optimizing Screening Performance for the Risk of Hyperoxaluria and Urolithiasis Using the Urinary Oxalate/Creatinine Ratio: A Retrospective Analysis
Our study shows that a simple test to measure the ratio of oxalate to creatinine in urine can help in identifying people at risk of kidney stones, especially for patients who have had weight-loss surgery. The test showed good screening performance, but more research is needed to confirm our findings.
