Figures & data

Figure 1. The complex relationship between metabolic syndrome, renal stone disease and gallstones diseases. How the liver communicates with kidney in individuals with renal stone disease and gallstone disease is not well known. The presence of renal stone disease or gallstone per se should lead to an additional evaluation of modifiable metabolic risk factor that leads to an increase in the risk of CVD GD.
