The effect of thiazide and potassium citrate use on the health-related quality of life of patients with urolithiasis
The Journal of Urology Jun 22, 2018
Raffin EP, et al. - Authors assessed the association between potassium citrate (Kcit) or thiazides and overall stone-related health-related quality of life (HRQOL).
