A study of U.S. Army active duty aviators was done using the Aeromedical Epidemiology Data Repository (AEDR) for the period of January 1984 through December 1987 to determine the incidence of renal calculi in this population. Age-specific rates were found to be highest in the 30-54 year age group. The overall annual incidence was determined to be 4.7/1000 population of white male aviators. After standardization to the 1960 U.S. white population, the incidence in aviators was found to be 2.2/1000, almost double that of a Rochester, MN male population (1.2/1000). The aviation environment may predispose Army aviators to dehydration and play an etiologic role in the genesis of renal calculi. Medical evaluation, treatment, and administrative disposition of Army aviators with renal calculi are also briefly discussed.
一项针对美国陆军现役飞行员的研究利用航空医学流行病学数据存储库（AEDR），对1984年1月至1987年12月期间的数据进行分析，以确定该人群中肾结石的发病率。研究发现，年龄特异性发病率在30 - 54岁年龄组中最高。白人男性飞行员的总体年发病率确定为每1000人中有4.7例。经标准化至1960年美国白人人口后，飞行员中的发病率为每1000人中有2.2例，几乎是明尼苏达州罗切斯特男性人口发病率（每1000人中有1.2例）的两倍。航空环境可能使陆军飞行员易患脱水，并在肾结石的形成中起病因作用。文中还简要讨论了患有肾结石的陆军飞行员的医学评估、治疗及行政处置情况。
