BACKGROUND
Since obesity and its associated co-morbidities do not only have effect on the individual patient, but also on society and the health system, it is of great importance to investigate this lifestyle-disease. The rationale of this study was to distinguish metabolically healthy from
In adults, serum uric acid levels are positively correlated with body mass index (BMI) and hyperuricemia is considered to be a common lifestyle disorder related with obesity. However, the relation of serum uric acid levels with obesity has not been elucidated in children and adolescents. Serum uric
Background Association of hyperuricemia, dyslipidemia and high blood pressure (BP) among adolescents with high waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) remains not fully addressed and could represent a new way to diagnose adolescents early with cardiometabolic risk. Objective We aimed to determine abdominal
Elevated circulating serum uric acid concentrations may be linked with an increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). We measured serum uric acid levels in 50 premenopausal and 88 postmenopausal non-obese white women who underwent an intravenous glucose tolerance test. The uric acid
To evaluate the resistin/uric acid index as a prognostic factor associated with body mass index (BMI) z-score change after 1 year of lifestyle interventions for obesity.In this prospective cohort study, we included 102 adolescents with overweight or obesity In order to study the relationships between obesity, serum uric acid, insulin secretion and insulin resistance in female subjects, we evaluated serum C-peptide and glucose-induced insulin utilization (euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp) in 16 obese (8 nonhyperuricemic and 8 hyperuricemic) and 10
BACKGROUND
Hyperuricemia is associated with obesity. Few studies have reported the effects of different types of bariatric surgery on uric acid metabolism. The aim of our study was to determine the relationships between serum uric acid reduction and estrogen receptor-α (ESR1) gene polymorphism, as
UNASSIGNED
Obesity and hyperuricemia are the precipitating factors of multiple disease processes. Studies on the relationship between obesity and hyperuricemia in Thai adolescents are limited.
UNASSIGNED
The objective is to investigate the gender differences in obesity and serum uric acid as well as
Relative importance of traditional and non-traditional components of metabolic syndrome (MetSy) as risk factors for subclinical target organ damage in obese children is still under investigation. Recent studies highlight the role of serum uric acid (SUA) as an emerging non-traditional OBJECTIVE
The role of uric acid as a risk factor for cardio-cerebrovascular diseases is controversial. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between serum uric acid level and the risk of cardio-cerebrovascular events in middle-aged and non-obese Chinese men.
METHODS
We included
BACKGROUND
Obesity is a social problem worldwide that leads to several diseases, including metabolic syndrome, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. It is known that hyperuricemia in adults may be associated with these disorders.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the authors was to investigate the frequency
This study investigated the correlation between elevated serum uric acid (SUA) and angiotensinogen in obesity patients with hypertension. A total of 162 obese and 162 nonobese men with hypertension were recruited in this study. Plasma angiotensinogen levels were measured by enzyme-linked
Mounting evidence supports the central role of oxidative stress and inflammation in obesity and the development of hypertension. However, most studies focusing on the non-enzymatic antioxidants, such as uric acid and bilirubin, and their relationship with obesity and hypertension were done in older
The overweight and obese population experiences a higher occurrence of both hyperuricemia and metabolic syndrome. The present study was to explore the relationship between serum uric acid and metabolic syndrome-related risk factors among 409 obese Chinese adults (254 women and 155 men) with >24
BACKGROUND
Hyperuricemia and hyperinsulinemia/insulin resistance are commonly seen in obese subjects and hypertensive patients. To clarify whether the insulin resistance plays a role in hyperuricemia, we investigated alterations in serum uric acid (UA) concentrations during treatment with a
