Hyperuricemia Predicts Adverse Outcomes After Myocardial Infarction With Non-obstructive Coronary Arteries.

ABSTRACT: Background: Serum uric acid (SUA) is a well-known predictor of adverse outcomes in patients with various clinical conditions. However, the impact of SUA on patients with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) remains unclear. Here, we aimed at investigating the potential association between hyperuricemia and the adverse outcomes in MINOCA patients. Methods: Overall, 249 MINOCA patients were enrolled in the present study. Clinical characteristics and laboratory data, were measured in all patients. Based on SUA levels, patients were classified into two groups; the hyperuricemia group [SUA level > 6 mg/dL (360 μmol/L) in women and > 7 mg/dL (420 μmol/L) in men], and the normuricemia group. The primary endpoint of our study was major adverse cardiac
