“…i Studies among New Zealand Maori and European adults have shown significantly higher serum uric acid levels and rates of clinical gout in the Maori (Rose and Isdale, 1963;Rose and Prior, 1963;Prior and Rose, 1966;Evans, Prior, and Morrison, 1969). This predisposition to hyperuricaemia and gout is associated with high rates of obesity, hyperglycaemia, and hypertriglyceridaemia, and represents a complex metabolic problem which contributes to morbidity and mortality in Maori adults (Prior, Rose, Harvey, and Davidson, 1966).…”

“…Recent studies have also confirmed a positive correlation between the serum urate concentration and body weight, both in Caucasians [59,67,75] and in Polynesians, recognized as a group with a tendency towards hyperuricaemia [43]. The normal range of urate production has also been defined in relation to surface area [100], implying thereby that urate production is greater in obese subjects.…”
