چکیده

background and purpose: the relationship between uric acid and stroke recurrence is ambiguous. some studies have explored this relationship in acute ischemic stroke but had different results. we evaluated the association of admission uric acid level with risk of stroke recurrence in patients with ischemic stroke. methods: we studied ischemic stroke patients presenting to our hospital with magnetic resonance imaging-confirmed acute ischemic stroke. blood samples were drawn within 24 h of admission for uric acid concentration. information on age, prior hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, ischemic heart disease, and smoking status was collected. we assessed the relationship between uric acid level and stroke recurrence at 90 days after stroke onset. results: two hundred patients were studied. twenty-seven patients suffered from a recurrence event. hyperuricemia was found in 48 (24%) patients. mean serum uric acid level in patients with recurrence was 6.6±1.3 and in patients without recurrence was 5.2±1.5 mg/dl. on multiple logistic regression analysis, the independent relationship between higher uric acid level levels and recurrence was confirmed (odds ratio, 1.29; 95% confidence interval, 1.12-1.73; p=0.01). conclusion: elevated uric acid concentration is significantly and independently associated with increased risk of stroke recurrence in ischemic stroke patients.

Serum uric acid as an independent predictor of early death after acute stroke.

BACKGROUND The prognostic significance of uric acid (UA) levels in acute stroke is unclear, so the objective of this study was to determine the association between levels of serum UA (SUA) and mortality in acute stroke. METHODS AND RESULTS Consecutive patients (n=435) presenting with ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage were included in the study. The length of stay in hospital and th...

Sacubitril/valsartan reduces serum uric acid concentration, an independent predictor of adverse outcomes in PARADIGM-HF.

AIMS Elevated serum uric acid concentration (SUA) has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, but this may be due to unmeasured confounders. We examined the association between SUA and outcomes as well as the effect of sacubitril/valsartan on SUA in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in PARADIGM-HF. METHODS AND RESULTS The association ...

Prognostic significance of uric acid serum concentration in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We sought to assess in 881 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke the clinical relevance in regard to functional outcome of the natural antioxidant uric acid measured at hospital admission. METHODS Patients had serum uric acid (mg/dL) measured by standard procedures 18.2+/-15.5 hours from clinical onset. At hospital discharge (11.0+/-6.0 days), neurological imp...
