Association Between Plasma Homocysteine Level and Hyperuricemia in Elderly Patients With Hypertension

Objective To explore the association between plasma homocysteine (Hcy) level and hyper-uricemia (HUA) in the elderly patients with hypertension.Methods From March to August in 2018,9902 hypertensive patients ≥ 60 years were routinely tested for blood biochemical indicators in Wuyuan county,Jiangxi province.The patients were assigned into a HUA group and a normal uric acid group.Multivariate Logistic regression was adopted to analyze the relationship between Hcy level and the risk of HUA.Results Compared with the normal uric acid group,the HUA group showed increased incidence of hyperhomocysteinemia (99.9% vs.98.7%,P<0.001) and elevated Hcy level[16.8 (13.8-21.5) μmol/L vs.14.4 (12.3-17.7) μmol/L,P<0.001].The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for influencing factors,the risk of HUA in the patients with hyperhomocysteinemia was 2.92 times of that in the patients with a normal Hcy level.The threshold effect analysis showed that the Hcy level was positively correlated with the occurrence of HUA in the case of Hcy<20 μmol/L (OR=1.05,95%CI=1.04-1.07,P<0.001).In the case of Hcy ≥ 20 μmol/L,there was no correlation between Hcy level and HUA (OR=1.00,95%CI=0.99-1.00,P=0.055),and the likelihood ratio test showed statistically significant results (P<0.001).Conclusion The elderly with hypertension should pay attention to control the Hcy level,which will be helpful to prevent the occurrence of HUA.
