Association Between Uric Acid to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio and Kidney Function in Patients With Primary Aldosteronism: A Cross-Sectional Study.

ABSTRACT: The relationship between the uric acid to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (UHR) and kidney function in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) is unclear. Therefore, this research explored the link between the UHR and kidney function in PAs. This research was conducted at the 2nd Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University and involved PA individuals hospitalized between October 2017 and April 2022. A total of 653 eligible participants were included in the analysis for this research. The kidney function was assessed by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), which is calculated using the modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) equation. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was defined as an eGFR <60 mL/min per 1.73 m² or the ratio of urine microalbumin to creati
