Something that's always stuck with me (re:kidney stones) is that consistently sleeping on the same side seems to increase the likelihood of developing them.

In the 93 patients [of 110] who consistently slept to one side, the side in which renal stones were found was identical to the dependent sleep side in 76%. source
