Association between serum uric acid levels and dyslipidemia in Chinese adults: A cross-sectional study and further meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to investigate the association of serum uric acid (SUA) levels with dyslipidemia and its components and to further explore the age- and gender-specific association of SUA levels with dyslipidemia in Chinese adults.A cross-sectional study was performed among 8642 adults who underwent health examinations. A meta-analysis covering 17 studies was conducted to confirm the results.The prevalence of hyperuricemia and dyslipidemia was 9.25% and 20.44%, respectively. Participants with hyperuricemia had higher prevalence of dyslipidemia than those without hyperuricemia (34.42% vs 19.01%, P < .005). Compared with participants with SUA in the first quintile, the odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval) of dyslipidemia in the second, third, fourth, and fifth quintiles of SUA were 1.09
