Abstract

Kidney stones are a common health probem that can cause various complications. Various clinical factors are thought to play a role in the occurrence of kidney stones, particularly metabolic conditions and urinary tract disorders. This study aims to analyze the relationship between diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity, urinary tract infections, and urinary tract obstruction with the occurrence of kidney stones in adult patients. This study is an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design using medical record data of adult patients at Tarakan Central Hospital in Central Jakarta. Data analysis was performed univariately, bivariately using the Chi-Square test, and multivariately using binary logistic regression. The results of the analysis showed that hypertension and diabetes mellitus were significantly associated with the occurrence of kidney stones. Hypertension was the most dominant factor with an odds ratio (OR) of 3.924 (95% CI: 1.249–12.330), while diabetes mellitus had an OR of 3.860 (95% CI: 1.259–11.850). Obesity and urinary tract infection did not show a statistically significant association. It can be concluded that hypertension and diabetes mellitus are risk factors associated with kidney stones in adult patients, with hypertension being the dominant factor.

Abstract

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a growing global health problem, and understanding patient characteristics is essential for improving clinical management. This descriptive study analyzed 131 medical records of CKD patients at Tarakan General Hospital in 2025. Most patients were male (54.2%), with the largest age group being 60–70 years (29.8%) and the most common occupation being homemakers (32.1%). CKD stage 5 was the most prevalent (84.4%), and 67.2% of these patients underwent hemodialysis. The most common risk factor was hypertension (68.7%), followed by cardiovascular disease (51.1%) and diabetes mellitus (46.6%). The majority of patients had anemia (78.6%; mean hemoglobin 9.2 g/dL), normal potassium levels (55.7%), and low bicarbonate levels (66.4%). These findings provide a comprehensive overview of CKD patient characteristics at Tarakan General Hospital and can serve as a basis for improving clinical care and guiding future research.
