“…A double-blind cross-over study was conducted on 34 patients with recurrent calcium oxalate stones to examine the effect of 1.5 L/day of a mineral water rich in bicarbonate (2673 mg/L), compared to 1.5 L/day of a mineral water with a low bicarbonate content (98 mg/L), on the risk of urinary stone formation [ 32 ]. The intake of the mineral water high in bicarbonate led to a notable rise in urine pH, citrate, and magnesium excretion when compared to the control group.…”

“…Numerous studies have examined the fat intake of individuals with kidney stones compared to those without. Some studies have reported that the fat intake of patients with stone and controls is similar [ 32 ], while others have found that stone formers have a higher dietary fat intake [ 44 ]. Complex mechanisms have been suggested to explain how the dietary fatty acid pattern, particularly the ratio of n-6 to n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, may impact the risk of calcium oxalate stone formation.…”

Kidney stone disease has a multifactorial etiology, and evolving dietary habits necessitate continuous updates on the impact of dietary components on lithogenesis. The relationship between diseases influenced by lifestyle, such as obesity and diabetes, and kidney stone risk underscores the need for comprehensive lifestyle analysis. Effective management of kidney stones requires a multidisciplinary approach, involving collaboration among nutritionists, urologists, nephrologists, and other healthcare professionals to address the complex interactions between diet, lifestyle, and individual susceptibility. Personalized dietary therapy, based on each patient’s unique biochemical and dietary profile, is essential and necessitates comprehensive nutritional assessments. Accurate dietary intake evaluation is best achieved through seven-day, real-time dietary records. Key factors influencing urinary risk include fluid intake, dietary protein, carbohydrates, oxalate, calcium, and sodium chloride. Personalized interventions, such as customized dietary changes based on gut microbiota, may improve stone prevention and recurrence. Current research suggests individualized guidance on alcohol intake and indicates that tea and coffee consumption might protect against urolithiasis. There is potential evidence linking tobacco use and secondhand smoke to increased kidney stone risk. The effects of vitamins and physical activity on kidney stone risk remain unresolved due to mixed evidence. For diseases influenced by lifestyle, conclusive evidence on targeted interventions for nephrolithiasis prevention is lacking, though preliminary research suggests potential benefits. Management strategies emphasize lifestyle modifications to reduce recurrence risks, support rapid recovery, and identify predisposing conditions, highlighting the importance of these changes despite inconclusive data.

The early and accurate detection of kidney stones is crucial for effective treatment and improved patient outcomes. This paper proposes a novel modification of the YOLOv5 model, specifically tailored for detecting kidney stones in CT images. Our approach integrates the squeeze-and-excitation (SE) block within the C3 block of the YOLOv5m architecture, thereby enhancing the ability of the model to recalibrate channel-wise dependencies and capture intricate feature relationships. This modification leads to significant improvements in the detection accuracy and reliability. Extensive experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed model against standard YOLOv5 variants (nano-sized, small, and medium-sized). The results demonstrate that our model achieves superior performance metrics, including higher precision, recall, and mean average precision (mAP), while maintaining a balanced inference speed and model size suitable for real-time applications. The proposed methodology incorporates advanced noise reduction and data augmentation techniques to ensure the preservation of critical features and enhance the robustness of the training dataset. Additionally, a novel color-coding scheme for bounding boxes improves the clarity and differentiation of the detected stones, facilitating better analysis and understanding of the detection results. Our comprehensive evaluation using essential metrics, such as precision, recall, mAP, and intersection over union (IoU), underscores the efficacy of the proposed model for detecting kidney stones. The modified YOLOv5 model offers a robust, accurate, and efficient solution for medical imaging applications and represents a significant advancement in computer-aided diagnosis and kidney stone detection.

Background: Nephrolithiasis, or kidney stone disease, presents a significant global health burden, with global incidence rates and treatment practices varying widely. This study aims to discuss the epidemiology, risk factors, treatment modalities, and challenges for nephrolithiasis in the lower half of the World Bank rankings; that is, in low- and lower-middle-income countries. Methods: A comprehensive literature review was conducted using PubMed for each country on the list, focusing on studies published from January 2000 onwards and reporting data on prevalence, risk factors, treatment practices, and economic implications. Results: Nephrolithiasis represents a significant burden for healthcare systems, with noteworthy geographical variability in prevalence possibly dependent on socioeconomic status and gender. Risk factors include dietary habits, climate, pollution, and infectious diseases. Treatment practices in some regions still rely on open surgery due to limited access to advanced endourological techniques, while other regions demonstrate high proactivity in research. The burden is exacerbated by inadequate healthcare infrastructure and training. Conclusions: Addressing nephrolithiasis in challenging economic circumstances requires targeted interventions, including improved access to modern treatment methods, enhanced training for healthcare professionals, and better socioeconomic and environmental conditions. Future research should focus on region-specific strategies and the development of sustainable healthcare solutions.
