ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the relationship between different components of metabolic syndrome (MS) and their combinations with hyperuricemia (HUA) in community residents.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted from March to November 2020 among 10% residents aged 18 and above selected by cluster sampling method from Nanzhai Community of Taiyuan City. According to serum uric acid levels, the selected individuals were divided into HUA group and non HUA group. The general clinical data of the selected subjects was collected, and routine physical examination and laboratory tests were performed. The serum uric acid levels were detected in fasting blood samples. The association of 5 components (hypertension, hyperglycemia, abdominal obesity, hypertriglyceridemia (TG), and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)) of MS and their combinations with HUA was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression model.Results:A total of 2 167 community residents were included in the survey, there were 385 cases of HUA with the age of (49.1±15.8) years old, and 297 males (77.1%); 1 782 subjects without HUA and with the age of (48.2±16.2) years old, and 695 males (39.0%). Compared with the non HUA group, the HUA group had a higher proportion of males, smoking, alcohol consumption, and gout attacks, higher abdominal circumference and body mass index (all P<0.05). The proportion of hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, and abdominal obesity of MS patients in the HUA group was higher, while the proportion of low HDL-C syndrome was lower (all P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the proportion of hyperglycemia between the two groups ( P>0.05). After adjusting for smoking, drinking alcohol, taking antihypertensive and hypoglycemic drugs, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that except for hyperglycemia, all other components of MS were independently associated with HUA. low HDL-C was negatively associated with HUA ( OR=0.408, 95% CI: 0.231-0.721, P=0.002), and high TG was strongly associated with HUA ( OR=1.834, 95% CI: 1.339-2.513, P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis also showed that 9 out of 31 combinations of MS components were associated with HUA (all P<0.05), and abdominal obesity+hypertriglyceridemia had the strongest association with HUA ( OR=4.379, 95% CI: 2.184-8.780, P<0.001). Conclusion:Except hyperglycemia, all components of MS and their combinations are significantly associated with HUA, the association between hyper-TG and HUA is the strongest one.
ABSTRACT
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) now has become a disease threatening people′s health, but there is no effective treatment for it at present,so early prevention and control of risk factors of NAFLD is particularly important. Hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia are associated with the risk of NAFLD;in recent years serum uric acid has also been recognized as a risk factor for NAFLD;however,there is a gender discrepancy in its impact on NAFLD. This article reviews the relevant research progress in recent years to elaborate the effect of serum uric acid on NAFLD in different genders.
ABSTRACT
Hyperuricemia is the second largest metabolic disease next to the diabetes and is an independent risk factor for other chronic diseases. With the increase of incidence rate, it has become one of the common chronic diseases in general practice. For the implementation of hierarchical medical system, it is necessary to establish a sound and effective community model for the management of hyperuricemia in China. This article reviews the literature at home and abroad to provide information for building a community management model of hyperuricemic patients.
