Study on the relationship between compositions of hyperuricemia and metabolic syndrome / 中华流行病学杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the relationship between compositions of hyperuricemia and metabolic syndrome among residents aged > or =20 years.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A stratified cluster sampling was conducted with 7887 dwellers recruited and examinaed. Blood samples were then collected for serum detection. Available data was analyzed using SPSS 13.0.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The incidence rates of obesity, hypertension and hyperglycemia for hyperuricemia were 53.4% with OR = 2.568 (95% CI 2.103-3.137), 38.8% with OR= 2.157 (95% CI 1.856-2.508) and 21.9% with OR = 1.850 (95% CI 1.552-2.205) respectively. Along with the increase of uric acid, body mass index changed the most followed by triglyceridemia. The change of hyperglycemia for men and cholesterol for women were not prominent. Conclusion The relationship between compositions of hyperuricemia and metabolic syndrome was close, suggesting that hyperuricemia might serve as one of the compositions of metabolic syndrome and could contribute to the prevention and control of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.</p>
