Abstract:
Objective:To study the relationship between serum uric acid level and coronary heart disease.Methods:212 patients in hospital were divided into two groups of non-coronary heart disease (91 cases) and coronary heart disease (121 cases).The group of coronary heart disease was divided into three subgroups of single-branch,double-branch and three-branch according to the scope of pathological changes.The serum uric acid levels in different groups were compared.The correlation between serum uric acid level and coronary artery lesion was analysed using univariate stepwise regression model.The logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the association of serum uric acid level with the incidence of coronary heart disease.Results:The serum uric acid level in coronary heart disease group[(378?100)?mol/L]was significantly higher than that in non-coronary heart disease group[(345?77)?mol/L](P0.05).Conclusion:The serum uric acid level increases along with the severity of coronary heart disease, but it is not an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease.
