Hypertension Was the Major Risk Factor Leading to Development of Cardiovascular Diseases Among Men with Hyperuricemia

A 7-year followup study among men with hyperuricemia was conducted to study the longterm relationships between serum uric acid concentrations and cardiovascular diseases. Any interaction between uric acid levels and other risk factors (e.g., obesity, hypertension) on the development of cardiovascular diseases was also examined.

A total of 391 men with hyperuricemia aged 30 and over screened from the community-based Kinmen study in 1991-92 (the baseline study) were followed in 1997-98, with a 75% followup rate. Demographic, clinical, and biochemical data were collected in both baseline and followup periods.

ConclusionsHypertension was the major risk factor leadin

g to aggravation of development of atherosclerosis among hyperuricemic subjects. Gout and elevated uric acid level seemed not to be an independent risk factor for most cardiovascular diseases. Nevertheless, blood pressure level was predictive for cardiovascular disease incidence synergistically with serum uric acid level. E-mail: [email protected]
