  2. Calcium oxalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_oxalate

    Cultural groups with diets that depend highly on fruits and vegetables high in calcium oxalate, such as those in Micronesia, reduce the level of it by boiling and cooking them. [4] [5] They are a constituent in 76% of human kidney stones. [6] Calcium oxalate is also found in beerstone, a scale that forms on containers used in breweries.

  3. Whewellite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whewellite

    Whewellite / ˈ h juː ə l aɪ t / is a mineral, hydrated calcium oxalate, formula Ca C 2 O 4 ·H 2 O. [6] Because of its organic content it is thought to have an indirect biological origin; this hypothesis is supported by its presence in coal and sedimentary nodules. However, it has also been found in hydrothermal deposits where a biological ...

  4. Kidney stone disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidney_stone_disease

    Some of the oxalate in urine is produced by the body. Calcium and oxalate in the diet play a part but are not the only factors that affect the formation of calcium oxalate stones. Dietary oxalate is found in many vegetables, fruits, and nuts. Calcium from bone may also play a role in kidney stone formation. Calcium phosphate: 10–20%

  5. Calculus (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculus_(medicine)

    In kidney stones, calcium oxalate is the most common mineral type (see nephrolithiasis). Uric acid is the second most common mineral type, but an in vitro study showed uric acid stones and crystals can promote the formation of calcium oxalate stones. [1]

  6. Nephrocalcinosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephrocalcinosis

    The term nephrocalcinosis is used to describe the deposition of both calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate. [1] It may cause acute kidney injury. It is now more commonly used to describe diffuse, fine, renal parenchymal calcification in radiology. [2] It is caused by multiple different conditions and is determined by progressive kidney dysfunction.

  7. Bladder stone (animal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bladder_stone_(animal)

    Two types naturally occur, calcium oxalate monohydrate, or whewellite (CaC 2 O 4 ·H 2 O), and calcium oxalate dihydrate, or weddellite (CaC 2 O 4 ·2H 2 O). Their appearance can be rough, smooth, spiculated (needle-like), or jackstone. Calcium oxalate stones form more readily in animals with hypercalcaemia, which can be caused by Addison's ...

  8. Hyperoxaluria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperoxaluria

    A favorable outcome is more likely if a kidney transplant is complemented by a liver transplant, given the disease originates in the liver. [citation needed] Secondary hyperoxaluria is much more common than primary hyperoxaluria, and should be treated by limiting dietary oxalate and providing calcium supplementation. [citation needed]

  9. Weddellite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weddellite

    Weddellite, or calcium oxalate dihydrate, crystallises in a tetragonal system: the classic crystal shape is the eight-face bipyramid. Using bright field microscopy, the weddellite crystals are recognised easily by their shape, reminiscent of a postal envelope. More complex shapes of weddellite are possible; the dumbbell shape is not rare and ...
