Abstract
Introduction: Urolithiasis affects mainly people of working age and due to its recurrent course often leads to disability. That`s why, the prevention of incidence and progression of urolithiasis is an important task. Objective: To study the possible relationships between dietary habits and urolithiasis occurrence and recurrence. Materials and methods: It was conducted a retrospective epidemiological study of a representative sample of 443 patients with urolithiasis – basic group (403 of them - without recurrences and 40 - with recurrences) and 203 patients with other predominantly acute urological pathology – control group, who were in urologic in-patient departments of health care facilities of Ivano-Frankivsk region. Results: There were found no sufficient evidences that the quantity and quality of drinking water, starvation, predominant use of caffeinated drinks, spicy, salty, meat or dairy products, fruits and vegetables impact on the risk of urolithiasis occurrence and recurrence. It was established significant differences in diet and water regime depending on age, sex and place of residence of patients. Conclusions: Received results, on the background of contradictory data of other similar studies, point out to the further necessity of more detailed prospective.
