摘要: This study investigates the impact of uric acid (UA) on risk factors associated with metabolic syndrome. In addition, this explores relationship between UA and insulin resistance serum leptin levels in A total 470 subjects (252 women 218 men) were recruited from Department Health Management at Chang Gung Medical Center (Linkou, Taiwan). Metabolic syndrome was defined using a modified Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) definition. The formula for homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR) is as follows: fasting (microU/mL) x plasma glucose (mmol/L)/22.5. Diabetes mellitus diagnosed 45 (9.6%); 82 (17.4%) had hypertension. Hyperuricemia 144 (30.6%). Of these subjects, 115 (63 females 52 males) (24.5%) having Patients hyperuricemia increased body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, triglyceride (Tg) level. also lower high-density lipoprotein greater Hormone assays showed an elevation leptin, immunoreactive (IRI), HOMA-IR group. Uric appeared to be better correlated Tg, blood pressure (both systolic diastolic), obesity, insulin, HOMA-IR. did not correlate or levels. Tg/high-density ratio statistically significant difference 3.8 cutoff value. Otherwise, there no conclusion, significantly related except glucose. Waist-to-hip different without
