Uric acid (UA) is the final product of human purine metabolism. As one of the main antioxidants in the body, it can scavenge oxidative radicals. Under the action of oxidative-antioxidant shuttle mechanism, the antioxidant activity of UA can be reversed, causing inflammation and oxidative stress of vascular endothelial cells. Hyperuricemia (HUA) is considered to be one of the major risk factors for diabetes and diabetic nephropathy. The study of HUA in diabetic retinopathy (DR) is also a hot topic. UA can cause retinal vascular sclerosis, and affect the occurrence and development of DR by promoting oxidative stress and inducing neovascularization.
Objective To analyze the effects of hyperuricemia (HUA) on the prevalence of dyslipidemia in the elderly. MethodsA total of 5 990 elderly people with complete and important variables from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) public database in 2015 were extracted. Their blood lipids, related physiological and biochemical indices, and basic demographic information were collected. The effects of HUA on the prevalence of dyslipidemia in the elderly were analyzed using the probit model, and empirical analysis was performed using the propensity score matching method (PSM). Results Among the 5 990 subjects, 13.6% of the elderly had HUA and the prevalence of dyslipidemia was 37.5%. After correcting the endogeneity among variables, the probability of dyslipidemia in elderly patients with HUA increased by 9.5%-11.7% (P<0.01), in which the probability of high triglyceridemia (TG), high total cholesterol (TC), high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) increased by 10.4%-11.5% (P<0.01), 2.7%-3.8% (P<0.01), 1.7%-2.3% (P<0.05), and 4.3%-4.9% (P<0.05), respectively. Conclusion HUA is associated with various types of dyslipidemia, among which its relationship with high TG and low HDL-C is strong. Targeted interventions should be taken for elderly HUA patients, aiming to reduce the rate of dyslipidemia and promote the goal of "healthy ageing" in China.

Methods The blood lipid (TG, TC, LDL, and HDL) levels in 200 asymptomatic individuals with high uric acid (A group) and 200 sex-and age-matched ones with normal serum uric acid (B group) were examined and the results of the two groups were compared. Results The concentration of triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol were (3.09±0.98), (4.05±1.07), (3.38±0.98), and (1.30±0.51) mmol/L, respectively in group A; and were (1.65±0.86), (3.99±0.99), (2.97±0.89), and (1.41±0.66) mmol /L, respectively in group B. The concentration of TG in group A was obvious higher than that in group B (Plt;0.01). However, the differences of their total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol were not significant (Pgt;0.05). The increase of TG was obvious compared with TC(Plt;0.01), LDL (Plt;0.01), and HDL (Plt;0.01) in group A; while the comparisons in group B were not significant (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion Uric acid metabolism correlates with triacylglycerol metabolism.

ObjectiveTo explore the optimal conditions of rat model of hyperuricemia (HUA) induced by different doses of potassium oxanate (PO) combined with adenine, and to provide reference for the treatment of HUA.MethodsMale Sprague-Dawley rats (220-240 g body weight) were divided into normal control group, potassium oxanate (1000, 1500 mg/kg) and adenine (0, 50, 100 mg/kg) combined model groups, with 8 rats in each group. After 5 weeks of intragastric administration, blood were collected from tail vein of rats every week, and serum uric acid, creatinine and blood urea nitrogen level were measured. At the 6th week, the changes of the pathological characteristics, expression of inflammatory and fibrosis-related factors in the kidneys were observed.ResultsIn the 1500 mg/kg potassium oxanate combined with 100 mg/kg adenine group, rats died after 2 weeks of molding, and the survival rate at the 6th week was 62.5%; but there was no significant difference between the other groups and the normal control group in survival rate (P>0.05). Compared with the normal group, the level of serum uric acid in each model group increased significantly after 1 week of molding (P<0.05), but recovered to the pre-model level after stopping intragastric administration in week 6. After 5 weeks, in model groups the levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen were higher than those in the normal control group; and the inflammation and fibrosis-related factors mRNA and protein expression of kidney tissue in model groups increased with the increase of ademine dose, and there was a significant difference in the PO 1 000 mg/kg with adenine 100 mg/kg group, PO 1 500 mg/kg with Adenine 50 mg/kg group compared to the normal control group (P<0.05). The results of renal anatomy and histology testing in rats showed that with the increased of the dosage of PO and adenine in the model groups, the increase of white deposition of renal medulla, tubulointerstitial fibrosis, and tubular epithelial cell necrosis was found, and the glomerular atrophy aggravated. Compared with the indexes in the normal control group, the expression levels of inflammation and fibrosis related genes and proteins in the 50 mg/kg adenine combined with 1 500 mg/kg PO group were higher, and inflammatory cell infiltration and fibrosis were observed, which was consistent with the clinical manifestation of hyperuricemia induced renal injury.ConclusionPO (1500 mg/kg) combined with adenine (50 mg/kg) can establish a stable hyperuricemic nephropathy model in rats.
Objective To study the risk factors of hyperuricemia in patients with mild coronary artery stenosis. Methods The clinical data of 267 patients, who underwent coronary angiography, were collected and classified into the hyperuricemia group (58.5±8.0 years) and the normal control group (57.3±9.9 years). The coronary artery diameter stenosis of all the patients was lower than 50%. Results Elevated levels of body mass index (BMI), serum creatinine, triglyceride, low level of high-density lipoprotein, and history of hypertension or diabetes mellitus were significantly correlated with increased prevalence of hyperuricemia in patients with mild coronary artery stenosis. Multivariate logistic regression models found that the risk factors were diabetes mellitus (OR=1.999, 95%CI 1.087 to 3.678) , BMI (OR=1.110, 95%CI 1.009 to 1.221), hypertriglyceridemia (OR=1.237, 95%CI 1.023 to 1.496), and serum creatinine (OR=1.026, 95%CI 1.008 to 1.045). Conclusion Diabetes mellitus, BMI, hypertriglyceridemia and serum creatinine are independent risk factors of hyperuricemia in patients with mild coronary artery stenosis.
