Prevalence of Hyperuricemia and the Relationship between Serum Uric Acid and Metabolic Syndrome in the Asian Mongolian Area

Abstract

The SUA level is significantly associated with various metabolic indicators. In this study, waist circumference and the level of triglycerides were most strongly correlated with the SUA level in both sexes. Individuals with a normal level of SUA had an increased risk of MetS and other metabolic disorders. Further research on appropriate cut-off values for pre-hyperuricemia is expected, and the early detection of hyperuricemia is essential for the prevention of MetS.
