METHOD FOR PREDICTING SCOLIOTIC VERTEBRAL COLUMN DEFORMITY IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS SUFFERING FROM OXALATE NEPHROPATHY Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC G01N33/68 G01N33/487 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method involves carrying out X-ray examination of the vertebral column and determining CrossLaps content in blood, oxalate calcium crystals available in urine and urine density. man. The value being equal to or less than 45%, external genital endometriosis diagnosis is to be set. Urine density being equal to 1018-1016, oxalate calcium crystals from 1 to 1.5 mg/kg of body mass and CrossLaps value being greater than 0.14 ng/ml, curvature angle is predicted not to be greater than 10°. Urine density being equal to 1015-1010, oxalate calcium crystals content being from 1.6 to 2.0 mg/kg of body mass and CrossLaps value being greater than 0.23 ng/ml, curvature angle is predicted to be from 11°.to 50°. Urine density being less than 1010, oxalate calcium crystals being greater than 2.0 mg/kg of body mass and CrossLaps value being greater than 0.61 ng/ml, curvature angle is predicted not to be greater than 51° with hard secondary transformations being developed.

EFFECT: high accuracy of prognosis.
