Despite categorization based on escalating stone risk, mean 24-hour urinary analyte values did not differ amongst the four groups (Figure 1B). Using a poisson regression the number of clinical stone risk factors obtainable by history or physical exam alone was predictive of stone recurrence. Baseline 24-hour urine values did not predict stone recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: Clinical characteristics based on history and physical exam used to identify high risk patients accurately identified those at risk of stone recurrence. Subsequent 24-hour urine testing did not identify a difference in metabolic activity on 24-hour urine testing to explain the increase in stone recurrence between within these risk groups. These data suggest that stone recurrence may be occurring by a process that is not well distinguished by 24-hour urine testing.
