ABSTRACT
Association of increased oxidative stress (OS) with the pathophysiology of renal stone formation has not been explored greatly in the field of urolithiasis. In this prospective case-control study, we measured 24-h urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels in patients with urolithiasis and compared them with matched healthy controls. We also measured 24-h urinary uric acid, calcium, oxalate, and citrate levels in patients with renal stone disease and studied their relation with urinary 8-OHdG levels. Seventy-five cases of renal stone disease and 75 well-matched controls were included. Median 24-h urinary 8-OHdG levels were significantly higher in cases compared to controls (7.6 vs. 3.7 µg/g of creatinine; p < 0.000). Receiver-operating curve (ROC) analysis for 8-OHdG between cases and controls revealed an area under the curve of 0.90. At 8-OHdG (µg/g of creatinine) value of 5 or more, a sensitivity and a specificity of 84% each were obtained. A positive correlation between 8-OHdG (µg/g of creatinine) and 24-h urinary oxalate level was noted (r = 0.461, p = 0.000). No correlation between 8-OHdG (µg/g of creatinine) and other variables was noted. On multivariate linear regression analysis, we noted 24-h urinary oxalate levels to be an independent predictor of urinary 8-OHdG levels. OS is significantly higher in patients with renal stone diseases compared to healthy controls. Urinary oxalate levels were significantly correlated with urinary 8-OHdG levels.
