This study analyzed 54 kidney stones passed after nephritic colic, identifying papillary and non-papillary types. Elemental analysis revealed various components, suggesting potential origins for these renal calculi.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Materials Science
  • Analytical Chemistry

Context:

  • Investigates spontaneously passed renal calculi following nephritic colic.
  • Classifies calculi into papillary and non-papillary groups.
  • Employs advanced analytical techniques for stone characterization.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the elemental composition of renal calculi.
  • To differentiate between papillary and non-papillary stone types.
  • To explore the potential origins of detected elements in kidney stones.

Summary:

  • Analyzed 54 renal calculi (papillary and non-papillary) using infrared spectroscopy, electronic microscopy scan (EMS), and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX).
  • Detected elements including Carbon (C), Nitrogen (N), Oxygen (O), Sodium (Na), Sulfur (S), Magnesium (Mg), Aluminum (Al), Silicon (Si), Chlorine (Cl), Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), Manganese (Mn), Iron (Fe), Nickel (Ni), and Zinc (Zn).
