[Total urinary protein in different types of nephrolithiasis].
In 26 healthy individuals and 114 patients with urolithiasis, total urine protein levels were measured in a single sample by using the stain ponceau S. The findings were statistically analyzed. The levels of the protein were found to be 27-80 mg/l in the healthy individuals, while the distribution of the data was asymmetric as viewed from high values. The patients with urolithiasis exhibited their protein levels according to the type of nephrolithiasis. Proteinuria was demonstrated to be less pronounced in patients with oxalate and urate nephrolithiasis than in patients with coral phosphate calculi. There was a substantial asymmetry in the distribution of total urine protein for all the examined groups of urolithiasis patients, as well as great dispersion values, which fails to regard the parameter alone as a diagnostic criterion for the type of nephrolithiasis. At the same time it was noted that simultaneous examination of the levels of total protein, uric acid, potassium, and sodium enabled the type of a concrement (oxalate or phosphate) to be in vivo estimated with approximately 85% probability.
