ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on understanding stone disease in children, which is when small, hard deposits form in the urinary tract and can cause pain and other health issues. The researchers are looking into how common this condition is, how it varies among different groups of children, and the best ways to diagnose and treat it. They want to find out more about the different types of stones that can form and what might cause them, especially since children with certain health issues or younger age may be more likely to have them again.

To participate in the trial, children under 18 years old who have had urinary stones diagnosed between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2022, can be included. Parents or guardians need to agree to share their child’s health information for this study. Participants can expect to help researchers gather important data that could improve how we understand and manage urinary stones in kids, which can ultimately lead to better treatment options in the future.
