| Research Abstract |
Severity of kidney stone disease was examined by the number of metabolic syndrome traits using data on 30,448 patients enrolled in the Nationwide Survey on Urolithiasis in Japan. Metabolic syndrome trait clustering is associated with greater severity of kidney stone disease; increased urinary calcium, uric acid, and oxalate excretion; and decreased urinary citrate excretion.
