Introduction. In the structure of urolithiasis, the predominant number of patients have stones consisting of calcium oxalate. These stones have a dense structure that is not amenable to litholysis and grows quickly. At the moment, there are no medications that can non-invasively relieve patients of this type of stones. In this connection, the main methods of treatment, depending on the size of the stones, are either lithokinetic therapy or surgical treatment.

Introduction. Today, ultrasound examination (ultrasound), due to a number of advantages over other diagnostic methods (low cost, lack of ionizing radiation, the ability to perform without restrictions on age, gender, body weight, the presence of metal objects, etc.), is widely implemented in clinical practice. However, the accuracy in detecting urinary stones in the gray-scale mode varies from 33 to 95% and depends on the experience of the specialist performing the study and the quality of the ultrasound apparatus.

Introduction. The study of lithogenic substances excretion in stone formers with pure monomineral stones allows us to identify characteristic metabolic changes, the long-term effect of which determines the originality of the pathogenetic mechanism features of the formation of urinary stones consisting of pure minerals.

Introduction. We will try to show the place of acid-base balance (ABB) study in urolithiasis patients. There is the second article in a series of works devoted to the study of ABB in urolithiasis patients. This work is devoted to the study of the level of basic acid base indicators: blood pH, pCO2, pO2, BE.

Introduction. Metaphylaxis of urolithiasis is an important link in the effectiveness of treatment of patients suffering from urolithiasis. However, this direction in the Russian Federation has not become widespread and is implemented, as a rule, only in large medical centers. To identify the reasons for this, an assessment of the existing regulatory framework for the possibility of urolithiasis metaphylaxis in state institutions of the Russian Federation was carried out

Introduction. Low adherence treatment is one of the reasons for the failure of the treatment of chronic diseases, including urolithiasis. The main efforts to increase patients' adherence to treatment should be aimed at acquiring knowledge about possible complications and prognosis of the course of the disease, as well as about the main methods of diagnosis and treatment. However, there is currently no tool to comprehensively assess the initial level of knowledge in these matters and thereby determine the level of adherence to the treatment of urolithiasis.

Introduction. Urolithiasis is a polyetiological, polypathognomonic metabolic disease characterized by the formation of kidney stones. The study of trends in the urolithiasis prevalence is of fundamental importance in practical medicine. The study of endemic territories allows us to analyze all possible risk factors for the development of urolithiasis from genetic to nutritional.

The aim of our study is a comparative analysis of the urolithiasis prevalence in the Russian Federation for different periods.

Introduction. Abdominal obesity has been considered an important risk factor for the development of urolithiasis in recent years. In this paper, we investigated the influence of the degree of obesity in patients with urolithiasis on metabolic parameters and the frequency of detection of urinary stones of various chemical compositions.

Introduction. Various forms of urolithiasis are associated with a number of disorders and diseases in the pathogenesis of which lipid metabolism plays a significant role.

Objective. To determine the stereotype of consumption of fats, saturated fatty acids and cholesterol by patients with calcium and non-calcium urolithiasis.

Introduction. Urolithiasis is one of the most common urological diseases. One of the risk factors for the development and frequent recurrence of urolithiasis is primary hyperparathyroidism. Urolithiasis of hyperparathyroid etiology has a severe course: rapid stone growth is noted, as a rule, this is a bilateral process that requires repeated surgical intervention. Untimely diagnosis of this disease can lead to late surgical treatment and the development of severe and irreversible complications in patients.
