Fasting SUA was significantly higher group than groups (severe AS, 6.3 ± 1.6; 4.9 1.3; AS; 4.6 1.4 mg/dL; P < .001, respectively). There positive correlation between maximum as well mean gradient (r .521, .001 r .526, negative valve area −.447, .001). Levels increased cases. In addition, there severity levels.
