Abstract
Enteric hyperoxaluria is a metabolic disorder resulting from conditions associated with fatty acid malabsorption and characterized by an increased urinary output of oxalate. Oxalate is excessively absorbed in the gut and then excreted in urine where it forms calcium oxalate crystals, inducing kidney stones formation and crystalline nephropathies. Enteric hyperoxaluria is probably underdiagnosed and may silently damage kidney function of patients affected by bowel diseases. Moreover, the prevalence of enteric hyperoxaluria has increased because of the development of bariatric surgical procedures. Therapeutic options are based on the treatment of the underlying disease, limitation of oxalate intakes, increase in calcium salts intakes but also increase in urine volume and correction of hypocitraturia. There are few data regarding the natural evolution of kidney stone events and chronic kidney disease in these patients, and there is a need for new treatments limiting kidney injury by calcium oxalate crystallization.

Abstract
Nephrolithiasis is a common urologic manifestation of Crohn's disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics, intestinal oxalate absorption, and risk factors for urinary stone formation in these patients. In total, 27 patients with Crohn's disease and 27 healthy subjects were included in the present study. Anthropometric, clinical, and 24 h urinary parameters were determined, and the [13C2]oxalate absorption test was performed. Among all patients, 18 had undergone ileal resection, 9 of whom had a history of urinary stones. Compared to healthy controls, the urinary excretion values of calcium, magnesium, potassium, sulfate, creatinine, and citrate were significantly lower in patients with Crohn's disease. Intestinal oxalate absorption, the fractional and 24 h urinary oxalate excretion, and the risk of calcium oxalate stone formation were significantly higher in patients with urolithiasis than in patients without urolithiasis or in healthy controls. Regardless of the group, between 83% and 96% of the [13C2]oxalate was detected in the urine within the first 12 h after ingestion. The length of ileum resection correlated significantly with the intestinal absorption and urinary excretion of oxalate. These findings suggest that enteric hyperoxaluria can be attributed to the hyperabsorption of oxalate following extensive ileal resection. Oral supplementation of calcium and magnesium, as well as alkali citrate therapy, should be considered as treatment options for urolithiasis.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant global public health concern associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. The maintenance of oxalate homeostasis plays a critical role in preserving kidney health, particularly in the context of CKD. Although the relationship between oxalate and kidney stone formation has been extensively investigated, our understanding of oxalate homeostasis in non-stone-forming CKD remains limited. This review aims to present an updated analysis of the existing literature, focusing on the intricate mechanisms involved in oxalate homeostasis in patients with CKD. Furthermore, it explores the key factors that influence oxalate accumulation and discusses the potential role of oxalate in CKD progression and prognosis. The review also emphasizes the significance of the gut-kidney axis in CKD oxalate homeostasis and provides an overview of current therapeutic strategies, as well as potential future approaches. By consolidating important findings and perspectives, this review offers a comprehensive understanding of the present knowledge in this field and identifies promising avenues for further research.

Abstract
Calcium stones are common and recurrent in nature, yet few therapeutic tools are available for secondary prevention. Personalized approaches for stone prevention have been informed by 24-hour urine testing to guide dietary and medical interventions. However, current evidence is conflicting about whether an approach guided by 24-hour urine testing is more effective than a generic one. The available medications for stone prevention, namely thiazide diuretics, alkali, and allopurinol, are not always prescribed consistently, dosed correctly, or tolerated well by patients. New treatments on the horizon hold the promise of preventing calcium oxalate stones by degrading oxalate in the gut, reprogramming the gut microbiome to reduce oxalate absorption, or knocking down expression of enzymes involved in hepatic oxalate production. New treatments are also needed to target Randall's plaque, the root cause of calcium stone formation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Secondary hyperoxaluria is associated with poor kidney allograft outcomes after the kidney transplant. Calcium oxalate (CaOx) deposition is common in early allograft biopsies leading to acute tubular necrosis and poor kidney allograft function. Though treatment options for secondary hyperoxaluria are limited, it is crucial to identify patients at increased risk of oxalate nephropathy after the transplant. RECENT FINDINGS Recent data suggest that significant changes in renal replacement therapies and dietary modifications in high-risk patients can prevent kidney allograft damage from the calcium oxalate deposition leading to improve allograft outcomes. SUMMARY The accurate and timely diagnosis of secondary oxalate nephropathy in kidney transplant recipients is paramount to preserving graft function in the long-term. This review will discuss the incidence, risk factors, prevention, and management of oxalate nephropathy in the kidney allograft.

Abstract
Hyperoxaluria is defined as urinary oxalate (UOx) excretion greater than 0.5 mmol per day. Hyperoxaluria can result from genetic causes, and these are known as primary hyperoxalurias. Secondary hyperoxaluria results from high intake of oxalate-rich foods (e.g., chocolate, nuts, spinach), lack of calcium in the diet to bind oxalate in the gut, or oxalate malabsorption; these forms are termed enteric hyperoxaluria. Usually only primary and enteric hyperoxalurias lead to the complications of kidney stones, crystal nephropathy, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and systemic oxalosis.1.
