Association of demographic and biochemical factors with hypercalciuria among Meitei adults in Manipur, Northeast India: a cross-sectional study
This study demonstrates a high prevalence of hypercalciuria exceeding the global average. Given that Manipur has also been reported to have a high prevalence of kidney stones, this finding indicates a considerable health risk. Early intervention could therefore improve public health outcomes related to calcium and mineral metabolism.
