NCT ID NCT04437225
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how the kidneys turn a substance called glycolate into oxalate, which can form kidney stones. Fifteen healthy adults will eat a special low-oxalate diet and receive a harmless tracer to track this process. The goal is to better understand how oxalate is made in the body, which could help prevent kidney stones in the future.
