Association between Dietary Acid Load and Hyperuricemia in Chinese Adults: Analysis of the China Health and Nutrition Survey (2009).

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study evaluates the association between dietary acid load (DAL) and hyperuricemia in Chinese adults.

Methods

The China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) in 2009 was used in this cross-sectional study. Potential renal acid load (PRAL) and net endogenous acid production (NEAP) were applied to estimate DAL. A multiple logistic regression model was used to test the relationship between DAL and hyperuricemia risk.

Results

A total of 7947 participants were included in this study, of whom 1172 had hyperuricemia. The PRAL score was positively related to the prevalence of hyperuricemia, even when potential covariates were taken into account. In comparison with Q1, the ORs were 1.12 (95% CI, 0.92-1.38), 1.20 (95% CI, 0.97-1.47) and 1.42 (95% CI, 1.16-1.75) in Q
