Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of hyperuricemia in patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN).
Methods:A retrospective study was performed in patients with renal biopsy diagnosed as IgAN in the Department of Nephrology, Provincial Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2016 to October 2018. According to the blood uric acid level, they were divided into two groups: patients with hyperuricemia and patients without hyperuricemia. The general clinical indicators and renal pathological data were compared between the two groups. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of hyperuricemia in IgAN patients.
Results:A total of 125 IgAN patients with age of (35.70±11.16) years old were enrolled, including 63 males and 62 females. The morbidity of hyperuricemia was 44.0%(55/125). Compared with the normal blood uric acid group, the blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine and the proportion of chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3-5, small arterial wall thickening, fibrous crescents/globules, renal interstitial fibrosis, renal tubular atrophy, glomerular sclerosis and inflammatory cell infiltration in the hyperuric acid group were higher, while the level of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was lower. And the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the level of serum creatinine was an independent related factor of hyperuricemia in IgAN patients (OR=1.034, 95%CI 1.005-1.064, P=0.021).
Conclusions:IgAN patients with hyperuricemia presented more severe glomerular, tubular and interstitial lesions, and the level of serum creatinine is an independent related factor of hyperuricemia in IgAN patients. High uric acid level may have an important influence on the progression of IgAN, so good control of serum uric acid may improve the prognosis of patients with IgAN.
