Abstract:
Objective:To describe the distribution characteristics of uric acid and associated factors among overweight and obese children in Tangshan City, so as to provide reference for the prevention of childhood hyperuricemia and related diseases.
Methods:A total of 543 overweight and obese school-age children in Tangshan from 2018 to 2019 were selected, 503 children of normal weight were selected as the control group. Height, weight, waist circumference(WC), blood pressure(BP) were measured, then the Body mass index(BMI) and waist-to-height ratio(WHtR) were calculated. Uric acid(UA), fasting blood glucose(FPG), total cholesterol(TC), triglyceride(TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) were measured. The distribution characteristics of uric acid level were described by age groups, and the relationship between uric acid and related indicators were analyzed.
Results:The mean uric acid of normal weight group,overweight and obese group were(278.15±89.68, 322.72±89.50)μmol/L respectively, the difference was statistically significant(t=-8.04, P<0.01). The detection rates of hyperuricemia in normal weight group, overweight and obesity group were 11.33% and 23.94% respectively, with statistically significant difference(χ2=28.28, P<0.01). UA level was positively correlated with age, BMI, body weight, TC, LDL-C(r=0.12，0.17，0.28，0.14，0.23，P<0.01), and negatively correlated with HDL-C(r=-0.25，P<0.01). Age, BMI, WHtR, TC, LDL-C were the influencing factors of hyper-uricemia[OR(95%CI)=0.82(0.72-0.94), 1.13(1.08-1.18), 0.38(0.23-0.64), 6.79(2.15-21.44), 0.04(0.01-0.14).
Conclusion:The urea level and high uric acid detection rate of overweight and obese children in Tangshan were higher than those of normal weight children. Age, obesity and dyslipidemia were influencing factors of hyperuricemia in obese and overweight children.
