Urinary calcium to creatinin ratio in children.
Indian Journal of Pediatrics 2005 December
Due to difficulty of 24hr urine collection in children for detection of hypercalciura, random urine calcium to creatinin ratio (U Ca/Cr) has been used for screening hypercalciuria. The purpose of this study was to determine normal U Ca/Cr ratio in primary school age children in North of Iran. This study was performed on 590 healthy school-age children, aged between 7-11 years. Early morning random urine samples from all children were analyzed for calcium and creatinine. Mean value and 95th percentile for U Ca/Cr ratio were 0.155 +/- 0.095 and 0.36, respectively. A negative correlation observed between age and U Ca/Cr ratio was R=-0.101, P=0.014. With regard to variations in U Ca/Cr ratio among different studies, it is recommended to determine this ratio in every geographic area.
