Uric Acid Levels and All-Cause Mortality in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Abstract: Background: Epidemiological studies have shown that hyperuricemia is associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hemodialysis patients. Our study investigated the influence of serum uric acid (UA) levels on survival in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Methods: This was a retrospective study involving 156 subjects who had undergone PD. The patient demographics, etiology of ESRD, comorbid conditions and other laboratory parameters were collected. The subjects were… Show more

“…Each 1 mg/dL (0.06 mmol/L) increase in uric acid level was associated with higher adjusted allcause mortality (HR 1.05, 1.00-1.10) and CVD mortality (HR 1.12, 1.05-1.20). Similar results have been found by other authors [137,138].…”
