ABSTRACT: Background
Lipid accumulation product (LAP), visceral adiposity index (VAI) and Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) are proposed indices of visceral adipose accumulation. This study aimed to explore their relationship and temporal changes with hyperuricemia (HUA) development in a Chinese population.Methods
A total of 4268 participants aged ≥45 years from the baseline survey of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study were followed up for 4 years (from 2011 to 2015). The relationships among VAI, LAP, CVAI and HUA were analyzed using logistic regression. The predictive abilities of the VAI, LAP and CVAI for HUA were compared using receiver operating characteristic curves. Nonlinear relationships between the indices and HUA were analyzed using restricted cubic sp
