Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The emphasis for preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases is to detect correlated risk factors. Among those accepted risk factors, whether serum uric acid (SUA) plays an independent role in the development of diseases is unknown.OBJECTIVE: To study SUA distribution and the prevalence of hyperuricemia, in middle-aged and elderly residents from the conjoining area between city and countryside in Guangzhou, and its association with other cardiovascular disease risk factors.DESIGN: Cross-sectional study.SETTING: Department of Cardiovascular internal medicine, Prevention and Health department, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University.PARTICIPANTS: An investigation on the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases was carriedout among total 890 residents living at the conjoining area between city and countryside in Guangzhou in December 2002. A total of 642 persons including 152 men and 490 women who were above 55years and had complete data were involved, and all of them understood and agreed to the investigation.the-spot investigation. Systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, body height and body mass were measured, and then body mass index [body mass (kg)/body height (m)2] was calculated. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglyceride and total cholesterol were measured by endpoint method; SUA was measured by uricolase turbidimetric method.were defined as hyperuricemia. Diagnosis of hypertension was made according to the WHO/ISH 1999 Prevention and Cure Guidelines of Hypertension. Various kinds of dyslipidemia were diagnosed based on Prevention and Cure suggestions of dyslipidemia for Chinese (1997). Obesity was defined, according to 2002 International Obesity Special Working Group'skewness distribution and described by Median ± quartile. Spearson correlation analysis was used to determine the dependability between SUA and other selected cardiovascular risk factors. Binary Logistic regression analysis was done for further analysis.SUA and other cardiovascular risk factors.terolemia and hypertriglyceridemia in men and women were 30.3%, 30.8%;were (357.30±66.77) and (299.80±59.64) μmol/L respectively. SUA level was positive correlated with age in women (r=0.18, P ＜ 0.01), but was not of SUA in men were 293.53, 357.30, 427.08 (μmol/L), and in women were 247.60, 299.80, 366.88 (μmol/L). Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, total cholesterol, triglyceride, blood pressure and body mass index were positively associated with SUA, while high-density lipoprootein cholesteral was negtive correlated with SUA. In both men and women, triglyceride, total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure and body mass index were positively correlated with SUA significantly (r=0.09-0.35, P ＜ 0.05-0.01), but highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol was negatively correlated with SUA significantly (r=-0.21, -0.25, P ＜ 0.05, 0.01); diastolic blood pressure in men and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in women were positively correincluded to Logistic regression equation were age, body mass index and triglyceride [OR (95%CI): 1.048 (1.023-1.073), P=0.000; OR (95%CI): 1.156(1.096-1.219), P=0.000; OR (95%CI): 1.436 (1.224-1.684), P=0.000].uricemia is correlated with hypertension and various kinds of dyslipidemia.The elevation of SUA may be an important marker of cardiovascular dismay affect SUA mostly, and increase the risk for hyperuricemia.
