To assess the family history of stones and association of mineral intake with gender, age and income of kidney stone patients.
A total of 130 kidney stone patients were selected randomly from Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh and family history of stones and mineral intake was assessed.
Out of selected patients, majority (80.77 %) were first time stone sufferers. There was significant (at 1 % level) association between family history of kidney stone patients with respect to gender of patients. Further study revealed that the intake of sodium, calcium, magnesium and phosphorous was higher than recommended dietary allowances (RDA). Among male patients, the intake of sodium, calcium and magnesium was higher for age group III (above 45 y) and intake of potassium and phosphorous was higher for age group I. In female kidney stone patients, intake of sodium, calcium and phosphorous was high for age group II, intake of potassium was high in case of age group I and intake of magnesium was high for age group III. Regression studies revealed that there was significantly higher intake of calcium and phosphorous by male kidney stone patients than female kidney stone patients. With the increase in age, the intake of calcium and phosphorous decreased.
Assessment of mineral intake is necessary to enable the health care providers, to give advice and suggestions to the patients to carry out preventive measures in reducing the risk of prevalence of kidney stones in this area and further advice to the suffering patients to prevent the recurrence of stone formation.
评估肾结石患者的结石家族史以及矿物质摄入量与性别、年龄和收入的关联。
从喜马偕尔邦康格拉地区随机选取130名肾结石患者，评估其结石家族史和矿物质摄入量。
在所选患者中，大多数（80.77%）是首次患结石。肾结石患者的结石家族史与患者性别之间存在显著关联（在1%水平）。进一步研究表明，钠、钙、镁和磷的摄入量高于推荐膳食摄入量（RDA）。在男性患者中，III年龄组（45岁以上）的钠、钙和镁摄入量较高，I年龄组的钾和磷摄入量较高。在女性肾结石患者中，II年龄组的钠、钙和磷摄入量较高，I年龄组的钾摄入量较高，III年龄组的镁摄入量较高。回归研究表明，男性肾结石患者的钙和磷摄入量显著高于女性肾结石患者。随着年龄的增加，钙和磷的摄入量减少。
评估矿物质摄入量对于医疗保健人员向患者提供建议和指导至关重要，以便他们采取预防措施降低该地区肾结石的患病风险，并进一步指导患病患者预防结石复发。
