ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the correlation between serum uric acid level and coronary artery SYNTAX score of coronary heart disease.Methods A total of 69 patients of coronary heart disease were enrolled according to SYNTAX score.The patients were divided into the low risk group (27 cases),medium risk group (23 cases) and high risk group (19 cases).The differences of serum uric acid concentrations among the three groups were compared by ANOVA.Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between serum uric acid concentrations and coronary artery SYNTAX scores.Results ANOVA analysis showed that the differences of serum uric acid concentrations among the groups were statistical significant (F=4.74,P＜0.05).The Spearman correlation analysis showed that serum uric acid concentrations were positively correlated with coronary SYNTAX score (r =0.58,P ＜0.05).Conclusion Serum uric acid level and severity of coronary artery disease are positively correlative.
