Do patients with renal calculi exhibit viscerosomatic reflexes as evident on CT imaging?

This study observed a statistically significant difference in the rotation of vertebrae at the levels associated with the viscerosomatic reflex between patients with unilateral kidney stones and those without kidney stones. The vertebral levels with the highest significance of association with this finding, particularly in right kidney stones, were T10, T12, and L4.

Abstract

This study observed a statistically significant difference in the rotation of vertebrae at the levels associated with the viscerosomatic reflex between patients with unilateral kidney stones and those without kidney stones. The vertebral levels with the highest significance of association with this finding, particularly in right kidney stones, were T10, T12, and L4.
