ABSTRACT

Objective To study between serum uric acid and early morning blood pressure of the different degrees of Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAHS)patients.Methods134 cases of OSAHS were divided into mild,midrange and severe groups according to apnea-hypopnea index(AHI),and 23 healthy people as normal control group.serum uric acid and early morning blood pressure were measured among four groups.ResultsSerum uric acid levels in mild,midrange,severe OSAHS groups and the control group were(392.10?88.22)?mol/L,(460.14?118.86)?mol/L,(537.63?134.11)?mol/L,(304.36?80.12)?mol/L,there were significant differences among four groups.there were significant differences between severe OSAHS and the others in blood pressure,as well as between OSAHS midrange group and the control group.ConclusionSerum uric acid in OSAHS patients increased with increasing degree of AHI,the disorder of serum uric acid possiblly contribute to abnormal blood pressure in OSAHS patients.
