Core Tip	Increasing awareness of the association between prevalence of metabolic syndrome and uric acid nephrolithiasis has caused a closer examination into modifiable risk factors for stone recurrence. The mechanism behind this association is thought to be due to decreased ammoniagenesis as caused by insulin resistance in the proximal tubule of the kidney. The presence or recurrence of uric acid stones should prompt the physician to look for traits of metabolic syndrome. Further studies into this causal relationship may provide additional medical interventions to decrease incident stones.
