Effect of Uric Acid and Hypersensitive C-reactive Protein on Cardiovascular Disease in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
Journal: Journal of Clinical Medicine Research DOI: 10.32629/jcmr.v6i1.3675
Abstract
Objectives: To explore the effects of uric acid(UA) and hypersensitive C-reactive(hs-CRP) protein on cardiovascular disease in chronic kidney disease. Methods: Using the prospective cohort study method, patients with chronic kidney disease who participated in Kailuan Group's health examination for the first time from 2006 to 2012 were selected as the observation objects, and the new cardiovascular disease was taken as the endpoint event, and the uric acid and hs-CRP levels were grouped, which were as follows: low UA/low hs-CRP group, the high UA/low hs-CRP, low UA/high hs-CRP and high UA/high hs-CRP groups. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression was used to analyze the effects of different groups on cardiovascular disease. Result: Cox regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors such as age and sex, compared with low uric acid and low hs-CRP group, the cardiovascular disease HR (95%CI) of the high uric acid group alone, high hs-CRP group alone, and high uric acid high hs-CRP group were 1.27(1.10-1.46), 1.25(1.14-1.38), and 1.34(1.11-1.61), respectively, all P < 0.01. The combined effect between UA and hs-CRP was associated with cardiovascular disease risk (P for interaction < 0.05). Conclusions: Uric acid and hs-CRP had a combined effect on increased risk of CVD in patients with CKD, and the association was independent of patients' baseline eGFR levels.
