title: [Influence of anthraquinones on the formation of urinary calculi in experimental animals (author's transl)].
abstract: The growth-inhibiting influence of hydroxy-anthraquinone derivatives of root of rubia in various calcium offerings was investigated using a foreign-body bladder calculus model in rabbits. Following oral doses of glycoside-bound and free aglycemics a pronounced calcium-complex binding effect and a significant reduction in the growth rate of the calculi was observed. Use of anthraquinone glycosides to prevent recurrence of calcium-containing urinary stones is recommended.
