Uric acid is a breakdown substance of purines which exist in body tissues and some food and drinks. Purines are a type of chemical compound in nature consisted in nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). Uric acid is created in the body via purine metabolism and circulated within the bloodstream, and...
The dietary intake of fructose-rich sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) may have a significant role in raising serum uric acid (SUA) levels as well as the risk of contracting gout and cardiovascular risk factors. Our objective was to investigate the impact of SSB intake on SUA, body mass index ...
Febuxostat works by reducing the production of uric acid in your body. If uric acid levels get too high, crystals can form in your joints and cause inflammation and pain (gout flares). By reducing the formation of uric acid, febuxostat helps prevent gout flares. How is febuxostat supplied (...
Dietary purines including nucleotides, nucleosides and bases, can be absorbed and utilized through the purine metabolic pathway in the human body. However, the urate oxidase, a key enzyme for the conversion of uric acid into allantois, lost its catalytic activity during the human evolution (Oda,...
Paracetamol may affect the results of laboratory tests for uric acid and blood sugar levels. Paracetamol can be taken with oral contraceptives, but it may not work as well to lower your pain or fever. Does Paracetamol interact with my other drugs?
Conclusions LF supplementation had a re-balancing effect on the disturbed metabolic pathways in the obese body. The results of this study validate the therapeutic effect of the compound polysaccharide--LF in obesity and described the biochemical and metabolic mechanisms involved.Back...
Nickel, as one of the most abundant elements in the earth's crust, plays many roles in human reproduction and life. It is an essential trace element for the human body, but can be harmful in excess amounts. Nickel has a significant impact on endocrine hormones in humans and animals, pote...

Whether hyperuricemia is a true risk factor for elevated blood pressure (BP) is controversial, and the sex-specific effects of serum uric acid (SUA) on BP during a follow-up period remain unclear. We investigated whether the association of SUA level with systolic or diastolic BP during a 10...
