Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence and its influencing factors of hyperuricemia (HUA) among the employed individuals who undergo occupational health screening in Shanghai, so as to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of HUA and for the health promotion in this population. MethodsCluster sampling methods were performed to recruit all the employed individuals who underwent routine health check-ups at the Shanghai Health and Medical Center from January to December 2023. Relevant data, including physical examination results, laboratory tests, and questionnaire surveys, were collected for analyses. Based on the diagnostic criteria for HUA, participants were categorized into HUA group and non-HUA group. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors of HUA. ResultsThe detection rate of HUA in the employed population of Shanghai was 23.26%, with a significantly higher rate in males (31.12%) than that in females (10.43%) (χ2=381.853,P<0.001). The detection rate of HUA increased with age (χ²trend=5.728, Ptrend=0.017). Logistic regression analysis revealed that males had a higher risk for HUA the females, with overweight, obesity, meat-predominant diet, hypertension, and dyslipidemia being positively correlated with HUA risk. While, individuals aged 40‒ and 50‒ years had a lower risk for HUA compared with those aged 20‒ years. ConclusionThe prevalence of HUA among the employed individuals who undergo health check-ups in Shanghai is relatively high. Attention should be paid to maintaining a healthy lifestyle and keeping a balanced diet. Targeted health management should prioritize for males, individuals with hypertension and BMI overweight and obesity, and those with dyslipidemia to reduce the risk of HUA.
