Pathophysiology and Treatment of Enteric Hyperoxaluria.

ABSTRACT: Enteric hyperoxaluria is a distinct entity that can occur as a result of a diverse set of gastrointestinal disorders that promote fat malabsorption. This, in turn, leads to excess absorption of dietary oxalate and increased urinary oxalate excretion. Hyperoxaluria increases the risk of kidney stones and, in more severe cases, CKD and even kidney failure. The prevalence of enteric hyperoxaluria has increased over recent decades, largely because of the increased use of malabsorptive bariatric surgical procedures for medically complicated obesity. This systematic review of enteric hyperoxaluria was completed as part of a Kidney Health Initiative-sponsored project to describe enteric hyperoxaluria pathophysiology, causes, outcomes, and therapies. Current therapeutic options are limited to correcting the underlying gastrointestinal disorder, intensive dietary modifications, and use of calcium salts to bind oxalate in the gut. Evidence for the effect of these treatments on clinically significant outcomes, including kidney stone events or CKD, is currently lacking. Thus, further research is needed to better define the precise factors that influence risk of adverse outcomes, the long-term efficacy of available treatment strategies, and to develop new therapeutic approaches.

Project description:Data directly demonstrating the relationship between urinary oxalate (UOx) excretion and stone events in those with enteric hyperoxaluria (EH) are limited. Therefore, we assessed the relationship between UOx excretion and risk of kidney stone events in a retrospective population-based EH cohort. In all, 297 patients from Olmsted County, Minnesota were identified with EH based upon having a 24-h UOx ≥40 mg/24 h preceded by a diagnosis or procedure associated with malabsorption. Diagnostic codes and urologic procedures consistent with kidney stones during follow-up after baseline UOx were considered a new stone event. Logistic regression and accelerated failure time modeling were performed as a function of UOx excretion to predict the probability of new stone event and the annual rate of stone events, respectively, with adjustment for urine calcium and citrate. Mean ± standard deviation age was 51.4 ± 11.4 years and 68% were female. Median (interquartile range) UOx was 55.4 (46.6-73.0) mg/24 h and 81 patients had one or more stone event during a median follow-up time of 4.9 (2.8-7.8) years. Higher UOx was associated with a higher probability of developing a stone event (P < 0.01) and predicted an increased annual risk of kidney stones (P = 0.001). Estimates derived from these analyses suggest that a 20% decrease in UOx is associated with 25% reduction in the annual odds of a future stone event. Thus, these data demonstrate an association between baseline UOx and stone events in EH patients and highlight the potential benefit of strategies to reduce UOx in this patient group.BackgroundData directly demonstrating the relationship between urinary oxalate (UOx) excretion and stone events in those with enteric hyperoxaluria (EH) are limited.MethodsWe assessed the relationship between UOx excretion and risk of kidney stone events in a retrospective population-based EH cohort.
