Gender-related differences in serum uric acid in treated hypertensive patients from central and east European countries: findings from the Blood Pres…
2019
OBJECTIVE: Hyperuricemia has been associated with high blood pressure (BP) values, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome and chronic kidney disease (CKD). In the present study, we assessed the gender-related relationships between serum uric acid (SUA) and cardionephrometabolic variables in central and east European hypertensive patients. METHODS: A total of 3206 treated hypertensive patients with available SUA levels from the BP-CARE study was analyzed. Correlations among SUA, BP values, BP control, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome and CKD were performed according to gender. RESULTS: Twenty-five percent of the whole population showed hyperuricemia (28% in women and 23% in men). These p…
