An epidemiological study: The incidence and risk factors of urolithiasis in the active working population of the Osijek community
An epidemiological study was carried out of the incidence and risk factors of the occurrence of urolithiasis in 28 work organizations in Osijek. The study comprised 7833 workers, of which number 15, 68% were from the active working population, i.e. 4, 81% of the population of the Osijek community. Urolithiasis was found in 466 (5.95%) of subjects. A Higher incidence was determined in men aged 30 to 50 years, which is the age of greatest physical and productivity. A significantly higher incidence (P<0, 05) was found in the families of subjects with urolithiasis (16, 38%) than in the families of subjects without urolithiasis (7, 03%). With regard to occupation no statistically significant difference (P<0, 05) was found in the incidence of urolithiasis. Urolithiasis was found in 51 (6, 51%) subjects working in raised temperatures, and in 415 (5, 93%) subjects working in normal temperatures.However, the difference in the incidence of urolithiasis between these two groups was not statistically significant (P<0, 05). Correlation between the incidence of urolithiasis and drinking water was also not statistically significant (P<0, 05). Howevwe, the daily intake of liquids was connected with the incidence of urolithiasis (P<0, 05). Out of all subjects 61, 94% consumed a mainly protein diet, although the incidence of urolithiasis was not statistically significantly greater (P<0, 05) than in those consuming other types of nutrition. The high incidence of urolithiasis (5, 95%), high relapse rate (40, 77%) and the occurrence of urolithiasis at the age of greatest activity and productivity, indicates that urolithiasis is an important social and medical problem in the active working population of the Osijek community
