Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased risk for
cardiovascular (CV) disease and is also associated with elevated uric acid, which is …

Aims: Increased uric acid levels are associated with kidney dysfunction. We tested the
hypothesis that uric acid level predicts future development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) …

Hyperuricemia is common in chronic kidney disease (CKD), but data regarding the
relationship between serum uric acid levels and the long-term outcomes of CKD patients …

BACKGROUND: Uric acid levels are increased in patients with kidney dysfunction. We
tested the hypothesis that uric acid may be associated with kidney disease progression …

Aim Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is always associated with hyperuricaemia. However, the
studies evaluating the clinical implications of hyperuricaemia have shown conflicting results …

Background There are inconsistent findings on the role of hyperuricemia as an independent
risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD). Hypertension has been implicated as a factor …

Abstract Background and Objectives: Cardiovascular disease is prevalent in chronic kidney
disease (CKD). Uric acid is increased in subjects with CKD and has been linked with …

Background Uric acid (UA) levels correlate positively with the prevalence of chronic kidney
disease (CKD) and/or hypertension. We tested the hypothesis that UA may also have a link …

Elevated serum uric acid is a marker for decreased renal function, may have a mechanistic
role in the incidence and progression of renal functional decline and likely has a causal role …

Background Serum uric acid concentrations increase in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and
may lead to tubular injury, endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and intrarenal …
