Abstract

Objectives

To assess the serum iron and ferritin levels in relation to the prevalence of hyperuricemia (HU) and the serum uric acid (SUA) level.

Methods

Serum iron and ferritin concentrations were detected by Ferene method and chemiluminescence method, respectively. SUA level was detected by uricase-PAP method. HU was defined as SUA ≥ 416 μmol/L for male and ≥ 357 μmol/L for female. Multivariable-adjusted logistic regressions were constructed to investigate the associations between serum iron/ferritin levels and prevalence of HU. Pearson correlation analysis and multivariable linear regression were performed to examine the correlations between serum iron/ferritin levels and SUA level.

Results

A total of 2824 subjects (mean age 52.2 ± 7.2) were included. The overall prevalence of HU was 17.3%. Compared with the lowest quartile, the multivariable-adjusted odds ratios (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) of HU were 1.33 (95%CI 0.97–1.82), 1.17 (95%CI 0.85–1.60), and 1.56 (95%CI 1.14–2.13) in the second, third, and fourth quartiles of serum iron, respectively (P for trend = 0.012), and were 1.29 (95%CI 0.89–1.88) in the second, 2.13 (95%CI 1.47–3.07) in the third, and 2.25 (95%CI 1.54–3.29) in the fourth quartile of serum ferritin (P for trend < 0.001). Pearson correlation coefficient indicated a weak positive correlation between serum iron (r = 0.2, P < 0.001) and ferritin (r = 0.3, P < 0.001) levels and SUA. Such positive correlations were further confirmed by multiple linear regression (serum iron: standardized β = 0.059, P < 0.001; serum ferritin: standardized β = 0.061, P = 0.001).

Conclusions

Both serum iron and ferritin showed a positive correlation with the prevalence of HU, and a weak positive correlation with SUA level.

Key Points

• Subjects with higher levels of serum iron or ferritin had higher prevalence of HU.

• There was a weak positive correlation between serum iron/ferritin levels and SUA level.

Notfall-TEP der Hüfte ist auch bei 90-Jährigen machbar

26.04.2024 Hüft-TEP Nachrichten

Ob bei einer Notfalloperation nach Schenkelhalsfraktur eine Hemiarthroplastik oder eine totale Endoprothese (TEP) eingebaut wird, sollte nicht allein vom Alter der Patientinnen und Patienten abhängen. Auch über 90-Jährige können von der TEP profitieren.

Niedriger diastolischer Blutdruck erhöht Risiko für schwere kardiovaskuläre Komplikationen

25.04.2024 Hypotonie Nachrichten

Wenn unter einer medikamentösen Hochdrucktherapie der diastolische Blutdruck in den Keller geht, steigt das Risiko für schwere kardiovaskuläre Ereignisse: Darauf deutet eine Sekundäranalyse der SPRINT-Studie hin.

Bei schweren Reaktionen auf Insektenstiche empfiehlt sich eine spezifische Immuntherapie

25.04.2024 Allergien und Intoleranzreaktionen Nachrichten

Insektenstiche sind bei Erwachsenen die häufigsten Auslöser einer Anaphylaxie. Einen wirksamen Schutz vor schweren anaphylaktischen Reaktionen bietet die allergenspezifische Immuntherapie. Jedoch kommt sie noch viel zu selten zum Einsatz.

Therapiestart mit Blutdrucksenkern erhöht Frakturrisiko

25.04.2024 Hypertonie Nachrichten

Beginnen ältere Männer im Pflegeheim eine Antihypertensiva-Therapie, dann ist die Frakturrate in den folgenden 30 Tagen mehr als verdoppelt. Besonders häufig stürzen Demenzkranke und Männer, die erstmals Blutdrucksenker nehmen. Dafür spricht eine Analyse unter US-Veteranen.
