Abstract
Purpose of review: The review aims to understand how well patients follow dietary recommendations to prevent kidney stone recurrence and to identify strategies that can enhance their compliance with these dietary guidelines.
Recent findings: The review found that adherence to dietary prevention measures for nephrolithiasis is generally low, with only about 30% of patients following recommendations. Factors affecting adherence include education, comorbidities, and misconceptions. Strategies to improve adherence include clear communication, tailored plans, and the use of technology like mHealth and telemedicine. This mini review assesses patient adherence to dietary prevention measures for nephrolithiasis and explores methods to maintain or improve it. The review identifies factors affecting adherence, such as limited education, poverty, and misconceptions about the disease. It emphasizes the importance of clear communication, tailored dietary plans, and regular monitoring by healthcare providers to enhance patient compliance and improve health outcomes.
期刊介绍:
This journal intends to review the most important, recently published findings in the field of urology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal elucidates current and emerging approaches to the care and prevention of urologic diseases and conditions.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia, erectile dysfunction, female urology, and kidney disease. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
