BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The upper limits of normal serum uric acid (SUA) or the lower limits of hyperuricemia were frequently set at 420 or 360 μmol/L (7.0 or 6.0 mg/dL). We aimed to explore the association between high-normal SUA (360 ≤ SUA≤420 μmol/L) and incidence of macrovascular and renal events based on a 10-year cohort with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) to explore which cut-off was more appropriate.

METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 2988 patients with T2DM without hyperuricemia (SUA≤420 μmol/L) were included and followed up. Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline regression were used to evaluate the relationship between baseline SUA (as continuous and categorical variable) and macrovascular and renal events. Patients were grouped as low-normal (SUA<360 μmol/L) and high-normal groups based on baseline SUA, and the latter group had higher incidence of macrovascular events. Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that baseline levels of SUA were significantly associated with cardiovascular (HR = 1.385, 95%CI:1.190-1.613, P < 0.001) and peripheral vascular events (HR = 1.266, 95%CI:1.018-1.574, P = 0.034), and the linear association existed. Moreover, fully adjusted multivariable Cox analyses indicated high-normal SUA increased the risks of cardiovascular (HR = 1.835, 95%CI:1.319-2.554, P < 0.001) and peripheral vascular events (HR = 1.661, 95%CI:1.000-2.760, P = 0.050) compared to low-normal SUA.

CONCLUSIONS: Baseline SUA levels were positively associated with cardiovascular and peripheral vascular events, and high-normal SUA increased the risks of these events in patients with T2DM even without hyperuricemia. A threshold value for SUA of 360 μmol/L should be more appropriate in terms of predicting macrovascular events risks compared to the value of 420 μmol/L.
