A cross-sectional and bioinformatics-based analysis: perirenal fat thickness as a superior predictor of kidney stone disease
PFT serves as a practical and dependable marker for the risk of KSD. It is superior to BMI and can be conveniently incorporated into routine clinical practice. Stone formation may be linked to perirenal fat by FAM20A and DHRS9 via inflammatory pathways, which provides potential targets for the management of OB-related KSD.
