Background: Serum uric acid is a relatively insoluble metabolite of purine metalolism which is mainly secreted by the kidneys and the rate is dependant on renal blood flow . It increases in preeclampsia and studies show it may be marker of severe preeclampsia. Methods and materials: This cross sectional study was conducted in Dhaka Medical College Hospital in eclampsia ward of gynae & Obs department during the period from January 2010 to December 2011 with the objective to determine the serum uric acid level in preeclampsia, to compare the serum uric acid level between mild and sever preeclampsia and to find out any relationship of the serum uric acid level with hypertension in preeclampsia. The study group composed of 92 diagnosed case of preeclampsia patient. Out of the 92 cases, 42 had mild preeclampsia (group-A) and 50 had severe preeclampsia (group B). Result: The results of the study showed that the mean serum uric acid level was significantly higher in severe preeclampsia (6.91+1.02) compared to mild preeclampsia (4.99 + 0.80) and there is a positive and significant relationship of serum uric acid level with severity of hypertension in preeclampsia (p<.0001). Conclusion: There is significant association between serum uric acid level and severity of hypertension in Preeclampsia. Bangladesh J Obstet Gynaecol, 2017; Vol. 32(2) : 67-72

Background: The association of hyperuricemia with various cardiovascular risk factors has often led to the debate of whether hyperuricemia is an independent risk factor for essential hypertension (HTN).  The current study was conducted to see the relationship between serum uric acid and essential HTN in Bangladeshi adults.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, conducted in a tertiary hospital of Bangladesh, 155 patients with essential hypertension (newly detected or on treatment) aged ≥18 years and 100 age-sex matched normotensive subjects were investigated. Serum uric acid, plasma glucose, serum creatinine, and lipid profile were measured in all in fasting samples.Results: The frequency of hyperuricemia was higher in the hypertensive group in comparison to the normotensive control group (29.7% vs. 6.0%, p<0.001). Serum uric acid level was higher in the hypertensive subjects than the controls (6.10±0.88 vs. 5.38±0.54 mg/dL, mean±SD, p<0.001). In the hypertensive group, subjects with stage II HTN had higher serum uric acid than those with stage I HTN (6.46±0.83 vs. 5.72±0.78 mg/dL, mean±SD, p<0.001). In the hypertensive group, uric acid level showed significant positive correlations with both systolic and diastolic blood pressure though in the control group uric acid showed such correlation with systolic BP only.Conclusion: Patients with essential hypertension had higher serum uric acid compared to normotensive controls; uric acid level showed positive correlations with systolic and diastolic BP in the hypertensive subjects.

Introduction: Gout is crystal deposit arthritis and is an ancient disease. The biologic precursor to gout is hyperuricaemia. The prevalence of hyperuricaemia and gout has an increasing trend all over the world including the developing countries. The purpose of this study is to estimate serum uric acid level in hyperuricaemic and gout patients attending a medical college hospital. Methods: A consecutive 150 hyperuricaemics and 150 gout patients attending Tribhuwan University Teaching Hospital from June to September 2005 were included in this study. The serum uric acid level was measured by the enzymatic (PAP- Uricase) method. The patients with acute gout were interviewed and relevant information was obtained. Results: Males comprised 84 % of gout cases. Hyperuricaemia was common in both sexes. The mean age for gout was 47.49 and 56.65 years in males and females respectively. The mean age for the first gout attack was 42.1 ± 14.0 years. Family history was positive in 22 % of cases. The overall mean serum uric acid level in hyperuricaemics was 7.2 ± 0.7 mg/dL and 8.4 ± 1.1 mg/dL in acute gout (p 0.0001). The mean serum uric acid level was signifi cantly (p 0.0001) high among males both at the asymptomatic phase and at acute gout. Gout was more common in non-vegetarians (95 %) and alcoholics (65.3 %). Serum uric acid level was inversely related with the amount of daily water intake (p 0.0001). Conclusions: Serum uric acid level is signifi cantly high among the male gouty arthritic patients. However, it is also high among asymptomatic hyperuricaemic cases of both sexes.  Keywords: asymptomatic hyperuricaemia, gout, serum uric acid level.

Background: Uric acid is one of natural antioxidants in human body. There have been several studies on the correlation between uric acid with oxidative stress and osteoporosis. However, the data are insufficient and results are controversial. In this regard, we determined the association between uric acid levels and bone mineral density (BMD) during the postmenopausal period. Methods: We analyzed data from 328 postmenopausal women (mean age, 57.3 ± 6.5 years; mean serum uric acid level, 4.6 ± 1.0 mg/dL). The participants were divided into three groups based on tertiles of the serum uric acid level. The participants receiving hormone replacement therapy (HRT), bisphosphonates, or lipid-lowering agents were included. Results: Blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, and serum triglyceride levels were significantly higher in the upper tertiles of uric acid levels. No significant difference was found in the mean uric acid levels between medication users and non-users. Each HRT regimen had a different mean serum uric acid level. A cross-sectional analysis showed no significant correlation between the serum uric acid levels and BMD in the spine and femoral neck (spine BMD: 1.050 ± 0.131, 1.060 ± 0.160, 1.084 ± 0.140, p = 0.22; femoral neck BMD: 0.837 ± 0.110, 0.849 ± 0.096, 0.863 ± 0.115, p = 0.28 for each tertile of uric acid). Longitudinal analysis of data from 186 women with follow-up examinations at a mean interval of 14.6 months also revealed no difference in reduction in both spine and femoral neck BMD between tertile groups of serum uric acid (the median BMD reduction for spine: −0.02, 0.01, −0.04, p = 0.95; the median BMD reduction for femoral neck: 0.008, 0.005, −0.003, p = 0.34). Conclusions: Serum uric acid level is not associated with BMD in postmenopausal women.

Nowadays, obesity has become a serious problem world-wide. Obesity can cause the emergence of various kinds of diseases; one of them is hyperuricemia. This condition could found in obese adult as well as in obese adolescence. This study was aimed to obtain the serum uric acid level profile among high school students with overweight and obesity. This was a descriptive study with a cross sectional design. Subjects were students of Gen Panteleon High School with body mass index (BMI) >85. There were 23 students involved in this study. The results showed that 60.87% subjects had hyperuricemia. Most adolescence with obesity tend to have uric acid level above normal value.
