RESUMEN
Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors of ( acute myocardial infarction , AMI ) in elderly patients with ( hyperuricemia , HUA) in Suzhou, and to provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of AMI in patients with HUA. Methods Among of 356 patients with hyperuricemia aged ≥60 years who were admitted to Suzhou Jiulong Hospital from January 2016 to December 2021 were selected. The patients were divided into control group and AMI group according to whether they were complicated with AMI. The clinical data of the patients were collected from the medical record system, and the types of AMI and the lesions of the three main coronary vessels in patients with HUA were statistically analyzed. The serum BNP level and LVEF value of the two groups were compared. Univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis were conducted to analyze the risk factors of AMI in patients with HUA. Results Fifty-five cases (15.45%) of 356 patients with HUA developed AMI, including 31 males and 24 females. There were 26 patients (47.27%) with NSTEMI and 29 patients (52.73%) with STEMI. In addition, 30 cases (54.55%) had three-vessel lesions. Compared with the control group, the male ratio, average age, smoking history ratio, systolic blood pressure, FPG, LDL-C and Hcy levels in the AMI group were significantly increased (P<0.05), while LVEF values decreased (P<0.05). Smoking history (OR=2.987), high LDL-C (OR=3.439), high Hcy (OR=2.672) and high FPG (OR=3.874) were risk factors for AMI in patients with HUA (P<0.05). Conclusion HUA patients in Suzhou area have a high risk of AMI, and most of them are STEMI patients, with the characteristics of multi vessel branch lesions. For HUA patients with smoking history, poor control of Hcy, LDL-C and FPG, the risk of AMI is higher. Smoking cessation and control of LDL-C, Hcy and FPG levels should be actively adopted to reduce the risk of AMI.
