Abstract

The metabolic effects of a high protein diet (HPD) were studied in eight patients with idiopathic recurrent calcium oxalate stones. On the HPD there was a 35% increase in urinary calcium concomitant with increased excretion of cyclic AMP and hydroxyproline. These findings point to an enhanced resorp...
