Background: Elevated levels of serum uric acid are associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, this association with cardiovascular diseases is still unclear, and perhaps controversial. The objective of study was to assess the serum uric acid level in patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI).Methods: Sixty patients with AMI were studied in Department of Medicine/ Department of Cardiology, J.A. Group of Hospitals between 2016 -2018.Details of age, sex, smoking, alcohol consumption and history of ischemic heart disease (IHD) was obtained and recorded. Serum uric acid level was estimated and compared with control group (healthy subjects).Results: Serum uric acid level was significantly higher among AMI patients (6.43±2.60) as compared to control group (4.05±0.95) (p<0.001). Majority (46.7%) of the AMI patients had uric acid level of >7.1 followed by 20% patients who had uric acid level between 4.5-5.9 (p<0.001). Uric acid level was comparable between smoker and non-smokers (p=0.803), alcoholic and non-alcoholic (p=0.086), hypertensive and non-hypertensive (p=0.668), patients with and without diabetes (p=0.278) and patients with a history of IHD and without history of IHD (p=0.403).Conclusions: Serum uric acid may be useful for prognostication among those with pre-existing AMI.

The Relationship

Background: Present evidence shows that increased uric acid level is a negative prognostic factor in patients with moderate to severe heart failure. A study has highlighted a correlation between serum uric acid levels and Killip class in patients of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Aim of this study the relationship between serum uric acid level and Killip classification in patients with AMI.Methods: Sixty patients with AMI were studied prospectively in Department of Medicine/ Department of Cardiology, JA Group of Hospitals between 2016-2018. Patients were grouped based on the Killip class. Age, sex, history of smoking, alcohol consumption, hypertension and diabetes were recorded. Serum uric acid level were measured on Day 1, 3 and 5, which was compared with Killip class.Results: Majority of the patients were males (65%) and had age between (28.3%) 51-60 years. No significant association was obtained between any risk factors of AMI and Killip’s class (p>0.05). Serum uric acid levels were significantly higher in Killip grade III (7.80±3.57) as compared to Killip’s grade II (6.64±2.88) and I (6.30±2.33) (p=0.014). Majority of the patients with Killip’s grades I and II, had uric acid level ≤7.0 mg/dl (n=18 and n=9 respectively) (p=0.040). Serum uric acid was equally distributed among different types of killip’s grades between patients who expired and survived. (p>0.05).Conclusions: Serum uric acid levels has been found to be well correlated with Killip classification in patients with AMI. Combination of Killip class and serum uric acid level after AMI is a good predictor of mortality after AMI.

Background: Higher uric acid is a negative prognostic factor in patients with mild to severe heart failure. Studies have shown that there is a close correlation between serum uric acid concentration and Killip classification in patients of acute myocardial infarction and uric acid levels are higher in patients with higher Killips class.Methods: We studied 100 patients with acute myocardial infarction and compared with 100 controls. Serum uric acid level was measured on day 0, 3 and 7 of MI and results were analysed.Results: Average uric acid level in male cases was 5.6 and female cases was 5.2, male controls were 4.2 and female controls was 3.6. Females had a higher mortality when compared with male patients. One female died due to MI on day 0, one male and two females died on day 3 and four males and four females died on day 7. All patients who died had higher uric acid levels.Conclusions: Serum uric acid levels are higher in patients of acute myocardial infarction as compared to normal healthy persons. Serum uric levels increases in patients with higher Killip class. Combination of Killip class and serum uric acid level after acute myocardial infarction is a good predictor of mortality after acute myocardial infarction.

Background: Among non-communicable diseases, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a common killer of people in the world. The management of AMI patients is one of the major challenges in the field of cardiology. Uric acid has several effects of potential interest in cardiovascular disease. There are some markers indicating an unfavorable prognosis in AMI patients. Uric acid is one of the markers that have been evaluated in research. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the association between serum uric acid level and in-hospital outcomes of AMI patients. Patients and methods: This longitudinal descriptive study was conducted over 115 AMI patients in the Cardiology Unit of Rajshahi Medical College Hospital during the period of January 2015 to December 2016. Baseline characteristics such as age, sex, BMI, BP, RBS, risk factors (hypertension, DM, smoking, family history of IHD, dyslipidemia), and outcomes of AMI patients (acute LVF, arrhythmia, conduction block, cardiogenic shock, death) were recorded. We measured the serum uric acid of this patient at admission.  Results: The mean age of patients was 52.83±10.71 years. Out of 115 patients, 83.5% were male, and 16.5% were female. Among the risk factors, 65.2% of patients had HTN, 20.9% DM, 64.3% smoking, 16.5% family history of IHD, and 47.8% dyslipidemia. Out of 115, 35.7% of patients demonstrated high serum uric acid. In outcomes of AMI patients, acute LVF 24.4% (p=0.031) and death 12.2% (p=0.041) were significantly higher in patients with high serum uric acid levels. Conclusion: Significant association was found between high serum uric acid level and in-hospital outcomes of AMI patients. So, estimation of serum uric acid may offer an inexpensive, quick, and non-invasive method for identifying such high-risk patients. TAJ 2021; 34: No-1: 26-32
