“…A diet including the risk of metabolic syndrome (high fat and fructose intake) showed an increased risk of NL in epidemiologic studies ( 14 ). Vegetables and fruits provide a good source of citrate and potassium (both stone inhibitors) and by that decrease the risk of NL ( 15 ). Summing up, children with the risk of NL should stick to a normal and balanced diet.…”

Nephrolithiasis, urolithiasis, and nephrocalcinosis (NC) have become common causes of hospitalization and referral to pediatric outpatient clinics. It is of utmost importance to start with diagnostic evaluation directly after the first passage of a kidney stone, or if NC is diagnosed, in each pediatric patient. This is necessary, as in about 80% of children a metabolic reason for stone disease is detected. Current treatment options are scarce and mainly include general measures like an increased fluid intake or elevating the solubility of a lithogenic substance. According to the given lithogenic risk factor(s), specific treatment options are available and are being summarized in this review. Furthermore, an outlook on potential future treatment options, including innovative strategies such as mRNA-based or recombinant enzyme substitution therapy, is given.

“…Dietary Risk Factors-Updated nutritional guidelines have been published that suggest increasing fluid intake to 3 liters, maintaining 2 liters of daily urine output to prevent supersaturation of calcium, and increasing urinary citrate with lemon and orange juices [56]. Additionally, limiting sodium intake per child age group (to less than <2 g of sodium per day) and increasing intake of fruits and vegetables to alkalinize the urine all help prevent stone formation in pediatric patients [57].…”

Objectives: To examine the most recent literature and published science in determining any and all possible associations between pediatric obesity and pediatric urolithiasis. Methods: Retrospective literature review of pediatric stone formers with diagnosed stone disease and all associated risk factors. Peer-reviewed, published manuscripts from the past several decades were analyzed for risk factors associated with pediatric obesity such as diet, hypertension, and renal diseases. Comparing the pediatric obesity literature with the pediatric stone forming literature, any associations and correlations were derived and analyzed. Results: Despite the existing evidence that obesity is linked to stones in adults, the evidence remains unclear whether obesity plays a role in children. Nutritional discrepancies, in the setting of the obesity epidemic, have been shown to alter the risk profile of pediatric patients. Consistent with the published literature, and lack of consistent correlation with obesity and stone disease, is the knowledge that age, gender, geography, and climate may all play a role in the onset of pediatric obesity and may also be on the causal pathway toward pediatric urolithiasis. Conclusion: The manuscript demonstrates that there are a number of risk factors, congenital or acquired, that are associated with pediatric obesity. The mechanisms responsible for these associations may be on the causal pathway toward childhood urolithiasis. These mechanisms that underlie these associations need to be further investigated.

“…3,4 The second objective, increased urinary cystine solubility, can be improved with increased fluid intake; in pediatric patients, this is commonly estimated using body surface area and approximates 2 L/m 2 3 body surface area. 3,5 Cystine solubility also increases with urinary alkalinity, so once again it is important for patients to avoid excessive animal protein, whose sulfur containing amino acid profile acidifies the urine. 3,6 Finally, it is noted that patients with cystinuria are at higher risk for calcium oxalate stones; therefore, general dietary recommendations for renal stones should be followed, including ensuring adequate amounts of dietary calcium.…”
