Abstract The latest European Guidelines of Arterial Hypertension have officially introduced
uric acid evaluation among the cardiovascular risk factors that should be evaluated in order …

Uric acid (UA) is the final product of the catabolism of endogenous and exogenous purine
nucleotides. While its association with articular gout and kidney disease has been known for …

Objective: Hyperuricemia has been associated with high blood pressure (BP) values,
diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome and chronic kidney disease (CKD). In the present …

Structural and functional arterial properties commonly impair with aging process. These
effects on vasculature could act at many levels from microcirculation to large vessels. Above …

Background Uric acid (UA) is an independent prognostic factor for cardiovascular events,
but there are no data demonstrating a different risk profile between women and men. Thus …

The role of uric acid levels in the cardiovascular continuum is not clear. Our objective is to
analyze the prevalence of hyperuricemia (HU) and its association with cardiovascular risk …

Risk of hyperuricemia is modified by genetic and environmental factors. Our aim was to
identify factors associated with serum uric acid levels and hyperuricemia in Mexicans. A pilot …

Background and aim Heterogeneous results have been obtained in the relationship
between Uric Acid (UA) and Target Organ Damage (TOD). In the present study we sought to …

Background Higher serum uric acid (SUA) can cause gout, which is principally characterized
by arthritis due to monosodium urate crystal deposition in the lower extremities. High levels …

Purpose: The association between serum uric acid (SUA) and pulse wave velocity (PWV),
has been extensively evaluated but with some discrepancies in results. A further limitation …
