Abstract:
Objective To assessed the relation of hyperuricemia with severity of coronary artery disease(CAD).Methods Three hundred and sixty patients having angiographic evidence of atherosclerosis (CAD + case group,n =360) compared to 150 patients with no luminal stenosis (n =90) and with <50% luminal stenosis (n =60) at coronary angiography (CAD-control group,n =150),all patients be collected between Sep 2009 and Jun 2011 who visited our hospital.Results The mean age of the patients was (60 ± 10) years; the women had a greater prevalence of hypertension,diabetes mellitus,and hyperlipidemia compared to men,with statistical significance[respective as (30.1 ±4.5)kg/m2,165 (56.9%) 104(35.8%),207(71.3%) vs (27.3 ±3.9)kg/m2,118 (53.6%),62(28.2%),139 (63.2),allP <0.05),but serum levels of creatinine and uric acid significantly greater for men than women [respective as (119 ± 1.09) μmol/L,(453 ± 10.8) μmol/L vs (106 ±6.3) μ mol/L,(423 ± 12.6) μ mol/L,both P < 0.01].Hyperuricemia was more likely associated with a trend toward higher vessel scores,indicating a more severe CAD (adjusted OR =1.52,P < 0.05) in the whole population.A comparison of sex-specific values showed a significant association existed only in men.Conclusion Asymptomatic hyperuricemia may be associated with the presence and severity of angiographically-defined CAD in patients with suspicious symptoms for CAD.
