| Scientific title | Coenzyme Q10 therapy in lithotripsy in patients with renal lithiasis: a prospective randomised double-blind trial |
| Study acronym | Q10LT |
| Study objectives | Urinary tract lithiasis is associated with renal damage secondary to the appearance of inflammatory changes and imbalances in hormone regulation of angiotensin II axis, which finally lead to the development of fibrosis. Today it is accepted that the treatment of initial choice for most cases of urolithiasis is the application of extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy that by shock wave emission causes fragmentation of the calculus, allowing their elimination by the excretory way. Associated to the injuries by lithotripsy appears inflammatory phenomena and vasoactive hormonal. In both cases, the final common mediator lies in oxidative imbalance. Therefore, the use of drugs with antioxidant capacity, such as co-Q10 might reduce kidney damage associated with the application of lithotripsy for patients with urinary tract lithiasis. |
