Associations of 24-hour urine parameters with calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate supersaturation by race

Calcium Oxalate Supersaturation Calcium Phosphate Supersaturation
Calcium, 10 mg/d Oxalate,a,b 10 mg/d Volume, L/d Calcium,a 10 mg/d pH, U/d Volume,a L/d
Black 0.35 (0.31 to 0.39) 1.35 (1.27 to 1.43) −4.34 (−4.40 to −4.28) 0.06 (0.05 to 0.07) 0.60 (0.58 to 0.62) −0.61 (−0.65 to −0.57)
White 0.17 (0.14 to 0.21) 0.31 (0.29 to 0.34) −3.15 (−3.29 to −3.01) 0.03 (0.02 to 0.04) 1.30 (1.22 to 1.38) −0.45 (−0.51 to −0.39)
Difference in slope estimate between whites and blacks −0.18 (−0.23 to 0.13) −1.04 (−1.09 to 0.99) 1.19 (1.09 to 1.29) −0.03 (−0.04 to −0.02) 0.70 (0.64 to 0.76) 0.16 (0.13 to 0.19)
P value for difference in slope between whites and blacks <0.001 <0.001 <0.001 <0.001 <0.001 <0.001

Values represent slope estimates for each clinical variable by racial group as seen in Figures 1 and 2, as well as an estimate of differences between groups. Where significant, any two- and three-way interactions are noted.

a

Interaction between sex and race present: P value for interaction <0.001.

b

Three-way interaction between sex, oxalate, and race present: P value for interaction <0.001.
