Abstract:
Abstract:The prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA) in children and adolescents is rising rapidly and presents a trend towards younger age groups, establishing it as the most prevalent metabolic abnormality and a major public health concern. To curb the damage of persistent HUA to children and adolescents development and health, the review systematically addresses the epidemiology, diagnosis, health impairments, and pathogenesis of pediatric HUA, summarizes risk factors and tiered interventions, and discusses future directions including diagnostic precision, the advancement of intervention windows, and the dual role of uric acid, with the goal of informing early prevention and control strategies for HUA in children and adolescents.
