Assessment of idiopathic Hypercalciuria in Girls kids with Infrequent Voiding (Underactive Bladder)

Hypercalciuria may be a sign of infrequent voiding; these symptoms may be treated if we get rid of hypercalciuria.
This paper is intended to get to the prevalence of hypercalciuria in girls (kids) with infrequent voiding.
80 patients with the index of infrequent voiding, who were admitted to Amir-Kabir hospital of Arak, and 80 children who were admitted without any particular disease just for a laboratory check were studied simultaneously. Urine sample (U/A-U/C), kidney, and bladder sonography was taken from both groups.
The prevalence of hypercalciuria in the normal group was 9.64% and in the case group was 53.18% (P = 0.003). Based on the chi-square test, hypercalciuria distribution between the 2 groups is not homogeneous. Mean calcium to creatinine ratios were 0.17 ± 0.18 (mg/mg) and 3.9 ± 0.34 (mg/mg) for control and case groups, respectively and significant difference is observed between the 2 groups (P = 0.0001). Based on the logistic regression test, there is a significant relationship between both case and control groups and the occurrence of hypercalciuria with 6.3 times more than the control group observed in the case group.
Based on the high prevalence of hypercalciuria in the case group, examination and treatment of hypercalciuria in patients with infrequent voiding may be effective.
