    NLM Medical Subject Headings
    U.S. National Library of Medicine, 2025
  • Increased excretion of oxalates in the urine.
    Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO)
    The Human Phenotype Ontology Project, 2025
  • The normal upper level of urinary oxalate excretion is 40 mg (440 �mol) in 24 hours. Men have a slightly higher normal value (43 mg/d in men vs 32 mg/d in women), but this is primarily due to larger body habitus and larger average meal size rather than to any real intrinsic metabolic difference.
