Key Points

  • To determine the frequency of renal stones in patients diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
  • 226 participants aged 18–60 years with CKD enrolled using consecutive sampling.
  • Renal stones diagnosed using ultrasonography.
  • Data analyzed using SPSS v26 with Chi-square test.
  • Renal stones identified in 36 patients (15.9%) with significant association to prior CKD history (83.3% vs 32.6%; p=0.001).
  • Significant association with vitamin D supplementation (75.0% vs 37.9%; p=0.001).
  • No significant associations found for age and gender (p > 0.05).

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the frequency of renal stones in patients diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. A total of 226 participants aged 18–60 years of both genders with CKD were enrolled using consecutive sampling. Renal stones were diagnosed using ultrasonography. Data were analysed using SPSS v26 with Chi-square test; p ?0.05 indicated statistical significance. The mean age was 40.6 ± 12.2 years; among them, 144 (63.7%) were male. Renal stones were identified in 36 patients (15.9%) and were significantly associated with prior CKD history (83.3 vs 32.6%; p=0.001) and vitamin D supplementation (75.0 vs 37.9%; p=0.001). No significant associations were observed for age and gender (p >0.05). The current findings revealed that renal stones were present in patients with CKD and that the patient had significant associations with a prior history of kidney disease and vitamin D supplementation. Such demographic attributes as age, gender, and residential status did not have a significant association with stone formation. The results indicate the significance of specific clinical follow-ups and that further research is necessary to understand the potential origins and effective preventive interventions.
