  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Experiment are divided into uric acid stones group (A), non-uric acid stones group (B), control group (C), A, C recruited 30 patients each group, B group recruited 20 patients.

Who may be able to join

  • A、B group were enrolled standards: ① aged 18-65 years old; ② comply with percutaneous nephrolithotomy lithotripsy indications for surgery; ③ ECT tips ipsilateral normal or mildly impaired renal function.
  • Group C patients were enrolled standards: ① aged 18-65 years old; ② normal renal function, not associated with urinary calculi in patients; ③ cancer patients met radical nephrectomy indications for surgery; ④ emergency trauma patients suffering from kidney resection surgical indications.

Who cannot join

  • aged <18 years or> 65 years; ② neurological disease or cognitive dysfunction; ③ can not be corrected or uncorrected coagulopathy; ④ associated with diabetes, hypertension and other metabolic diseases; ⑤ accompanied by tuberculosis, hepatitis, HIV and other infectious diseases; ⑥ poor tolerance to anesthesia and surgery, such as: severe cardiopulmonary disease, coagulation disorders, etc.; ⑦ ultrasound, renal imaging examination revealed renal cortex was significantly thinner (renal cortical thickness <1.5cm), structural variation; ⑧ with severe systemic or urinary tract infection; ⑨ ECT tips ipsilateral renal function is severely impaired or solitary kidney.

About this study

This study intends to use in patients with renal tissue and blood samples, screening and identification of renal tissue hURAT1 regulating the expression of micro-RNA, for further study of uric acid stone formation mechanism and the occurrence of clinical preventive uric acid stones provide new clues and new intervention targets.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Urinary Calculi, run by Qian-wei Li.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

micro-RNA (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Dec 2013.
