The Relationship

AbstractElevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels may increase the risk of prehypertension. However, the findings from these studies remain conflicting. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between SUA levels and risk of prehypertension by conducting a meta-analysis. We conducted a comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, and the Wangfang database without language restrictions through May 2015. Observational studies assessing the relationship between SUA levels and prevalence of prehypertension were included. Pooled adjust odds ratio (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) of prehypertension were calculated for the highest vs. lowest SUA levels. Prehypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure (BP) ranging from 120 to 139 mmHg or diastolic BP ranging from 80 to 89 mmHg. Eight cross-sectional studies with a total of 21,832 prehypertensive individuals were included. Meta-analysis showed that elevated SUA levels were associated with increased risk of prehypertension (OR: 1.84; 95% CI: 1.42–2.38) comparing the highest vs. lowest level of SUA levels. Subgroup analyses showed that elevated SUA levels significantly increased the risk of prehypertension among men (OR: 1.60; 95% CI: 1.12–2.21) and women (OR: 1.59; 95% CI: 1.17–2.16). Elevated SUA levels are positively associated with the risk of prehypertension in the general population. However, more well-designed longitudinal studies are needed before a definitive conclusion can be drawn due to the cross-sectional studies included are susceptible to bias.

Objectives: Psoriasis is a systemic chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease. Psoriasis can lead to multiple complications and co-morbidities. It has also been observed that raised serum uric acid levels predispose to gouty arthritis and also thought to be a risk factor for cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. The basic aim of this study was to ascertain level of serum uric acid in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis and control cases which might be a useful tool for assessing the extent and severity of chronic plaque psoriasis. Study Design: Case control study. Setting: At Outpatient’s Department (OPD) of Department of Dermatology, PNS Shifa, Karachi. Period: From January 2013 to December 2016. Material & Methods: One hundred and ninety four (194) patients were taken in this study and 97 patients were biopsy proven cases of psoriasis and 97 other participants included as control cases reporting to OPD with other complaint like acne, hair fall and fungal infections. After written and informed consent, 5ml of venous blood was drawn in sterile syringe and using gel sample tube to see the serum uric acid levels. On the basis of laboratory reports the elevated serum uric acid level in psoriatic versus normal controls was recorded on a pre-designed proforma. Results: There were 54.6% (106/194) male and 45.4% (88/194) female. Elevated serum uric level was 4.5 times (Approximate of 4.46) more common in cases than control group (OR: 4.46 95%CI: 1.83 to 10.91). Conclusion: Raised levels of serum Uric acid have been seen frequently in psoriatic patients. Early treatment for higher levels of serum uric acid might play a critical role in the better treatment of psoriatic patients. These results revealed that serum uric acid concentration (SUAC) of psoriasis may play a vital role in assessing the complex multifactorial etiology of the psoriasis, severity and other possible metabolic factors.
