Abstract:

Background

With the development of society, hyperuricemia (HUA) has become the "fourth high" alongside the traditional "three highs": hypertension, hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. As a high-risk group, the factors associated with illness in elderly men deserve attention.

Objective

To explore the associated factors and prevention and treatment strategies of hyperuricemia (HUA) in elderly men, and to provide reference for the early intervention and treatment of HUA.

Methods

A total of 7 713 elderly men who underwent physical examinations at the Xuzhou Central Hospital (Xuzhou Clinical College of Xuzhou Medical University) in 2021 were included. Baseline data, physical examination results, and laboratory test results were collected to calculate the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were employed to investigate the influencing factors of HUA. The IEU database (https://gwas.mrcieu.ac.uk/) was queried, and GWAS datasets from East Asian populations were utilized to examine the clustering of different serum uric acid (SUA) levels with high systolic blood pressure (SBP), high triglycerides (TG), low eGFR, and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Mediation effect analysis was also conducted.

Results

Participants were categorized into a normal group (n=6 934) and an abnormal group (n=779) based on HUA status. Statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding age, height, weight, BMI, SBP, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Scr), eGFR, total cholesterol (TC), TG, HDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and plasma viscosity (PV) (P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that high SBP, high TG, low eGFR, and low HDL-C were risk factors for HUA (P<0.05). Chain mediation effect analysis revealed that the total effect of TG on SUA metabolism was 13.100, with a direct effect proportion of 94.37%, identifying it as the primary mechanism. Elevated TG positively predicted increased SBP (B=1.286, 95%CI=0.931-1.642) and elevated SUA (B=13.110, 95%CI=11.572-14.627), while negatively predicting renal function (B=-1.961, 95%CI=-3.102--0.820). Elevated blood pressure negatively predicted renal function (B=-0.094, 95%CI=-0.166--0.023) and positively predicted elevated SUA (B=0.240, 95%CI=0.145-0.334). Renal function negatively predicted elevated SUA (B=-0.206, 95%CI=-0.236--0.177).

Conclusion

The prevalence of hyperuricemia in elderly men is high. Blood uric acid is associated with high SBP, high TG, low eGFR and low HDL-C, SBP, TG and HDL-C lead to the increase of SUA through the damage of renal function, and eGFR decline plays a mediating role in it. Early control of hyperlipidemia and hypertension in elderly men can protect renal function. When choosing antihypertensive, lipid-lowering and SUA-lowering drugs, a comprehensive assessment of their synergistic effects on metabolism and related organ functions should be conducted, with particular attention paid to the protection of renal function.

摘要:

背景

随着社会发展,高尿酸血症(HUA)已与传统"三高"——高血压、高血糖、高血脂并驾齐驱,成为"第四高",老年男性作为高危人群,患病关联因素值得关注。

目的

探究老年男性HUA的关联因素及防治策略,为临床HUA早期干预和治疗提供参考依据。

方法

纳入2021年于徐州医科大学徐州临床学院徐州市中心医院健康体检的老年男性7 713例为研究对象,收集基线资料、体格检查结果与实验室检查结果,计算估算肾小球滤过率(eGFR)。采用单因素分析和多因素Logistic回归分析探究HUA的影响因素。检索IEU数据库(https://gwas.mrcieu.ac.uk),利用东亚人群GWAS数据集探讨不同水平的血尿酸(SUA)与高收缩压(SBP)、高甘油三酯(TG)、低eGFR和低高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)不同分组间的聚集性,并进行中介效应分析。

结果

依据是否患有HUA将患者分为正常组(n=6 934)和异常组(n=779)。正常组与异常组研究对象年龄、身高、体质量、BMI、SBP、尿素氮(BUN)、血肌酐(Scr)、eGFR、总胆固醇(TC)、TG、HDL-C、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)、血浆黏度(PV)比较,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。多因素Logistic回归分析结果显示,高SBP、高TG、低eGFR、低HDL-C是HUA的危险因素(P<0.05)。链式中介效应分析结果显示,TG对SUA代谢的总效应为13.100,直接效应占比94.37%,是主要作用机制。TG升高正向预测SBP升高(B=1.286,95%CI=0.931~1.642),正向预测SUA的升高(B=13.110,95%CI=11.572~14.627),负向预测肾功能(B=-1.961,95%CI=-3.102~-0.820);血压升高负向预测肾功能(B=-0.094,95%CI=-0.166~-0.023),正向预测SUA升高(B=0.240,95%CI=0.145~0.334);肾功能负向预测SUA升高(B=-0.206,95%CI=-0.236~-0.177)。

结论

老年男性HUA患病率高。SUA与高SBP、高TG、低eGFR、低HDL-C有关联。SBP、TG、HDL-C通过损伤肾功能导致SUA升高,eGFR下降在其中起中介作用。老年男性早期控制高血脂、高血压能保护肾功能,在选用降压、降脂及降SUA药物时,应综合评估其对代谢及相关器官功能的协同影响,尤其需注重对肾功能的保护。
