The Pathogenesis and Treatment of Kidney Stones

Coe, Fredric L., Parks, Joan H., Asplin, John R.·1992·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

ABOUT three fourths of all kidney stones are composed of calcium oxalate1; most calcium oxalate stones also contain a small amount of hydroxyapatite, and 10 to 12 percent contain some uric acid.2 Ten to 20 percent of stones contain struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate) produced by a urinary tract infection with bacteria that express the enzyme urease.3 Five percent of stones are pure uric acid, 5 percent contain more than 50 percent hydroxyapatite or calcium monohydrogen phosphate (brushite), and less than 1 percent are composed of cystine. Whereas most calcium oxalate stones are less than 2 cm in diameter, struvite, . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
