Abstract: ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between serum uric acid and prehypertension and the effects of age,obesity,fasting glucose and lipids in Chinese adults.Methods14,451 non-hypertensive cases from a community-based health examination survey in Xuzhou,Jiangsu province of China were enrolled in this study.Blood pressure,BMI,and determination of fasting glucose,lipids and serum uric acid were measured in all cases.ResultsThe odds ratios ( OR,95％ CI ) of prehypertension across increased serum uric acid after adjusting for age,sex were 1.0,1.20 ( 1.07 - 1.35 ),1.55 ( 1.36 - 1.76),1.82(1.60-2.09),2.33(2.03-2.67) (Pfor trend ＜0.01).The odds ratios were 1.0,1,04(0.92-1.18),1.21(1.06-1.38),1.26(1.09 - 1.45),1.36(1.17 - 1.58),( Pfor trend ＜0.01) after adjusting for age,sex,BMI,glucose,and lipids.In addition,fasting glucose significantly interacted with uric acid ( P for interaction ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusions Serum uric acid was associated with prehypertension,which might be an independent metabolic risk factor.Fasting glucose may reinforce the associations.
