Abstract in brief

  • This systematic review and meta-analysis examined how lifestyle and dietary factors influence the risk of developing kidney stones (nephrolithiasis), identifying things like high body mass index, sodium, and sugar intake as risk factors, while higher fluid intake, diets like DASH, and certain nutrients like fruits, vegetables, and calcium are protective.
  • The study analyzed data from over 50 articles with more than 1.3 million participants, finding that certain habits and diets significantly impact the likelihood of forming stones, with fluid intake and healthy eating patterns playing crucial roles.
  • However, more long-term randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm how effective specific dietary changes are for preventing kidney stones and to understand the combined effects of supplements like vitamin D and calcium.
