Association of serum uric acid to all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with cardiovascular disease.

ABSTRACT: Serum uric acid (SUA) has been linked to mortality in heart failure, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea, and metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease. However, data are lacking on how it affects the mortality risk of patients with cardiovascluar disease (CVD). This study evaluated the data of 4 308 individuals from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2008 using multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression, trend, restricted cubic splines (RCS), subgroup and inflection point analyses. All-cause and cardiovascular mortality accounted for 42.8% and 17.6% of cases, respectively, over a median 80- month follow-up. Upon control for confounding variables, no linear trend was seen in the Cox proportional hazards regression analysis
