The relationship between urinary calcium, sodium, and potassium excretion in full-term healthy newborns

The objective of this study was to determine the specific reference values for urinary calcium/creatinine (UCA/Cr) (mg/mg) in healthy breast-fed newborns, and to evaluate the relationship between UCa/Cr, urinary sodium/creatinine (UNa/Cr), urinary potassium/creatinine (UK/Cr) and UNa/UK ratio...

description The objective of this study was to determine the specific reference values for urinary calcium/creatinine (UCA/Cr) (mg/mg) in healthy breast-fed newborns, and to evaluate the relationship between UCa/Cr, urinary sodium/creatinine (UNa/Cr), urinary potassium/creatinine (UK/Cr) and UNa/UK ratios in the same group. A total of 88 infants aged between 0-28 days were enrolled in this study. They were divided into two age groups as follows: Group I: < or = 7 days of age; Group 2 infants aged between 8-28 days. Non-fasting spot urine was analyzed for Ca, Na, K and Cr. Significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of UCa/Cr (0.11+/-0.10 vs 0.27+/-0.23, p
