“…Figure 1 illustrates the detailed process of identifying and selecting articles. Finally, we identified a total of 8 articles evaluating the relationship between alcohol consumption and urolithiasis risk between 1985 and 2013 [8,9,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34]. Two researches conducted by Curhan et al [30,31], with shorter follow-up, recruited the same population as the one conducted by Ferraro et al [9].…”

Objective: We conducted a meta-analysis to quantitatively evaluate the correlation between alcohol consumption and the risk of urolithiasis by summarizing the results of published case-control and cohort studies and the potential dose-response association. Methods: A systematic literature search of articles up to February 2014 was conducted via PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus, EMBASE, the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases, and the references of the retrieved articles. Fixed- or random-effect models were used to summarize the estimates of odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) for the highest versus the lowest consumption of alcohol. A dose-response meta-analysis was also conducted. Results: The pooled OR estimates indicated that alcohol consumption was associated with a decreased risk of urolithiasis (OR = 0.683, 95% CI 0.577-0.808). In addition, the dose-response meta-analysis indicated that the rate of urolithiasis decreased by 10% for a 10 g/day increase in alcohol intake (OR = 0.898, 95% CI 0.851-0.948). No evidence of publication bias was found by Begg's or Egger's test (p = 0.130, p = 0.130, respectively). Conclusion: Our meta-analysis indicated that alcohol intake is associated with a decreased risk of urolithiasis.

“…10 In addition, the influence of smoking on urolithiasis has only been scarcely examined. [11][12][13] Furthermore, there is no consistent evidence about the effects of physical inactivity and smoking on urolithiasis. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate relationships between leisure time physical activity (LTPA) and other modifiable risk …”

“…2,12 The second mechanism is through increased production of reactive oxygen species resulting in increased oxidative stress and renal injury. 12 In the present study, 21% of participants with RSU were smokers. This high rate of smoking is not surprising given that the overall smoking rate in the province of Quebec is 21.4% (males: 23.3%, females: 19.6%).…”

Introduction: We explore relationships between selected lifestyle factors and recent (≤6 months) symptomatic urolithiasis (RSU). Methods: Surveys querying socio-demographic, medical history, physical activity, diet and smoking were administered to a convenience sample of stone clinic patients at a tertiary care hospital. Leisure time physical activity (LTPA) was assessed with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (long form). Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify associations between risk factors and RSU. Results: Of the 163 participants, most were male (64%) and white (78%), with a mean (standard deviation) age of 56.3 (14.2) years. The mean body mass index (BMI) was 27.3 (5.4) kg/m 2 and 57 (35%) patients reported RSU. No significant (p < 0.05) differences were observed between participants with and without RSU in age, sex, ethnicity, BMI, or diet. Of the cohort, 52 (35%) participants met physical activity guidelines for walking (29%), moderate (27%) or vigorous activity (29%). LTPA did not differ significantly by RSU status. Compared to those without RSU, participants with RSU had higher rates of smoking (7% vs. 21%, p = 0.02 and had 8.5 (95% confidence interval 2.2-32.2) times the odds of being current smokers after controlling for sex, diet, and LTPA. Conclusions: Physical inactivity and smoking are common among stone clinic patients, though LPTA was not associated with RSU. Study limitations include its small sample size, selection bias, and reliance on self-reported RSU (recall bias). In addition, participants may have already been following dietary recommendations to prevent urolithiasis recurrence. Nonetheless, current smoking was a potent predictor of RSU. When desired, smokers should be referred for smoking cessation.
