It is a fine article, furthermore enlightening a topic of basic research field, of which clinicians tend to be less acquainted with. One however tends to expect that a specialist of the area be an expert in basic metabolomic properties of the cardinal organ of the urotract - the kidney. This is where the authors contribute to the area in question. They enlighten new viewpoints to the oxalate metabolism, stretching wide-accepted theories with citations of latest research, elucidating valid conclusions, which serve as cornerstones for further development of this clinical problem. It will be interesting to follow up what will authors find out about the treatment options proposed here in the near future.
