ABSTRACT: Background
Although several studies have examined the association between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hyperuricemia (HUA), the direction of the association remains unclear. We aimed to investigate whether there was a bidirectional association between them.Methods
The present study was conducted in three analyses. Analysis I included 25,433 participants free of HUA at baseline to evaluate the associations between CKD and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) with incident HUA. Analysis II had 28,422 participants free of CKD at baseline to analyze the relationships between HUA and serum uric acid (sUA) with new-onset CKD. Cox proportional hazards regression models were applied to evaluate the association involved in Analysis I and II. Analysis III included 31,028 p
