The incidence of hyperuricemia and relevant diseases has been increasing recently since the living improvement and dietary changing. Both patients and doctors do not pay enough attention to this disease, due to the lack of obvious clinical presentations in early stage. This paper comments on the relationship between hyperuricemia and gout, gouty nephropathy, impaired glucose metabolism,and atherosclerotic diseases in order to arouse enough attention to this disease.
