Hypouricemia with hypercalciuria: Longitudinal study and review of the topic.

Background And Objective: The association of hypouricemia and hypercalciuria is rare. In 1974 a new syndrome named Hypouricemia with hypercalciuria and decreased bone density was described. Afterwards, some cases with such association were published in which the fractional excretion of urate was higher than 20ml/100ml FGR.

Renal diseases that course with hypomagnesemia. Comments on a new hereditary hypomagnesemic tubulopathy.

Renal diseases associated with hypomagnesemia are a complex and diverse group of tubulopathies caused by mutations in genes encoding proteins that are expressed in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle and in the distal convoluted tubule. In this paper, we review the initial description, the clinical expressiveness and etiology of four of the first hypomagnesemic tubulopathies described: type 3 Bartter and Gitelman diseases, Autosomal recessive hypomagnesemia with secondary hypocalcemia and Familial hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis. The basic biochemical patterns observed in renal tubular hypomagnesemias and the modalities of transport and interaction that occur between the transporters involved in the reabsorption of magnesium in the distal convoluted tubule are described below.

Pathogenic Variants of (URAT1) and (GLUT9) in Spanish Patients with Renal Hypouricemia: Founder Effect of Variant c.374C>T; p.(T125M).

Renal hypouricemia (RHUC) is a rare inherited disorder characterized by impaired urate reabsorption in the proximal tubule resulting in low urate serum levels and increased urate excretion. Some patients may present severe complications such as exercise-induced acute renal failure and nephrolithiasis. RHUC is caused by inactivating mutations in the (RHUC type 1) or (RHUC type 2) genes, which encode urate transporters URAT1 and GLUT9, respectively.

Reflections on TRP and TP/GFR in the definition of renal phosphate loss: conceptual review.

Background: Fractional tubular reabsorption of phosphate (TRP) has been used for over 60 years to establish the existence of renal phosphate loss. It is a parameter of corrected volume per decilitre of glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Later, a mass parameter per dl GFR called TP/GFR (tubular PO reabsorption per dl GFR) was devised which some authors have sought to substitute for TRP.
