The prevalence of hypercalciuria in girl kids with over active bladder

Introduction: hypercalciuria may be a sign of over active bladder, these symptoms may be treated if we get rid of hypercalciuria.objectives: this paper is intended to get to the prevalence of hypercalciuria in girl kids with over active bladder.patients and methods: all patients with index of over active urinary bladder who admitted to amir-kabir hospital of arak and children who have admitted without any particular disease just for a laboratory check were studied simultaneously. urine sample was taken from both groups.results: the prevalence of hypercalciuria in the group with normal urinary bladder was 22.6% and in the case group was 42.9%. hypercalciuria was reported in 30 (22.6%) children of control group and 57 (42.9%) children of case group. based on chi-square test, hypercalciuria distribution between the two groups is not homogeneous (p = 0.001). mean calcium to creatinine ratios were 2.384330 ± 0.55694 (mg/mg) and 2.186552 ± 0.56714 (mg/mg) for control and case groups respectively and no significant difference is observed between the two groups (p = 0.976). based on logistic regression test, there is a significant relationship between both case and control groups and the occurrence of hypercalciuria with 2.58 times more than control group observed in case group.conclusion: based on the high prevalence of hypercalciuria in case group, examination and treatment of hypercalciuria in patients with over active bladder may be effective.
