متن کاملPregnancy/Preeclampsia Prognostic Significance of Serum Uric Acid in Women With Gestational Hypertension
Aim of our study was to ascertain, prospectively, whether serum uric acid is a suitable predictor of preeclampsia and/or the delivery of small-for-gestational-age infants in women with gestational hypertension. We screened 206 primiparas, with a singleton pregnancy, referred for recent onset of hypertension. At presentation, we measured serum uric acid, creatinine, blood glucose, hemoglobin and...
متن کاملThe role of lactic acid in the reduced excretion of uric acid in toxemia of pregnancy.
Wlhen Chesley and Williams demonstrated low uric acid excretion in toxemiiic patients,1 they noted that the reduction in renal urate clearance was relatively greater than the reduction in glomerular filtration rate (1). This relationship has been confirmed (2) and is striking when c-ompared with observations on urate excretion in normal slibjects and patients with renal disease. It is generally...
متن کاملSerum Uric Acid in Primary Hypertension
Over about a quarter of a century, primary hypertension has become a rapidly growing health problem in children and adolescents. The pathogenesis of primary hypertension remains unclear and is said to involve a complex interplay of genetic, environmental, and behavioral factors. Serum uric acid (sUA) has been implicated in pathogenesis and maintenance of primary hypertension. However, insulin r...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of serum creatinine and uric acid in older Chinese patients with isolated systolic hypertension.
UNLABELLED We examined the relation of serum creatinine and uric acid to mortality and cardiovascular disease in older (aged >/=60 years) Chinese patients with isolated systolic hypertension (systolic/diastolic blood pressure >/=160/<95 mm Hg). We used Cox regression to correlate outcome with baseline serum creatinine and uric acid measured in 1880 and 1873, respectively, of the 2394 patients e...
