Uric acid is the end product of purine metabolism. It will cause physical pain and impaired function when the blood concentration exceeds a certain threshold. It is acknowledged that hyperuricemia is related to cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, stroke and kidney disease. However, there is ...
The interrelationship between uric acid and renal disease is reviewed in a historical context. Four phases can be distinguished—the descriptions of uric acid stones and gravel in the eighteenth century, of chronically scarred kidneys containing urate crystals in the nineteenth, the appearance of the ...
Uric acid (UA; 7,9-hihydro-1H-purine-2,6,8(3H)-trione; empiric formula C5H4N4O3; molecular weight of 168.11 Da) is a heterocyclic organic compound and an end product of purine metabolism in humans and great apes. Historical records show that UA crystals were first described by Anton...
Serum uric acid is commonly elevated in subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but was historically viewed as an issue of limited interest. Recently, uric acid has been resurrected as a potential contributory risk factor in the development and progression of CKD. Most studies documented that...
Elevated serum uric acid is a frequent finding in patients with kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. Intrarenal ischaemia, induced by hypertension, increased sympathetic nervous system activity, and hyperinsulinaemia have all been implicated in reduced renal clearance of urate. This frequently results...
Uric acid and cardiovascular disease risk reclassification: findings from NHANES III. The studied associations between serum uric acid (sUA) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) events have been controversial. We sought to evaluate the associati... SK Zalawadiya,V Veeranna,S Mallikethi-Reddy,... - ...

Uric acid levels are associated with all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality independent of systemic inflammation in men from the general population... Objective— The purpose of this study was to assess whether increasing serum uric acid (UA) levels are related to cardiovascular disease (CVD...
Lower preoperative serum uric acid level may be a risk factor for postoperative delirium in older patients undergoing hip fracture surgery: a matched retro... In the univariate analysis, lower log preoperative serum uric acid value, higher neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and cerebrovascular disease we...
