[PMID: 38707953 PMCID: PMC11070159 DOI: 10.2147/jir.s457387] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2023] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Elevated serum uric acid is crucial in the pathophysiology of chronic inflammatory diseases. However, its impact on chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) recurrence risk is unknown. This study investigates the association between elevated serum uric acid and the risk of CRS recurrence. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 1004 CRS patients (including 638 males and 366 females) who received functional endoscopic sinus surgery. All patients were followed up for more than 2 years, and categorized into subgroups based on phenotype, gender, and postoperative recurrence. Cox regression analysis was performed to evaluate the associations between serum uric acid and the risk of CRS recurrence. Results After categorization, 104 males had hyperuricemia, and 54 females presented hyperuricemia. The rate of recurrent CRS in the hyperuricemia group was significantly higher compared to the non-hyperuricemia group in both males and females (P<0.05). In both male and female patients, the rate of hyperuricemia and uric acid levels were elevated in the recurrent CRS group in comparison with the non-recurrent CRS group (P<0.05). Unadjusted and adjusted Cox regression analysis demonstrated that serum uric acid was an independent risk factor for CRS recurrence (P<0.05). The receiver operator characteristic curve showed that serum uric acid was a potential biomarker for predicting the recurrence of CRS and its phenotypes in both genders (P<0.05). Conclusion There is a close relationship between elevated serum uric acid and the recurrence risk of CRS and its phenotypes, suggesting that serum uric acid may be a novel biomarker for predicting recurrent CRS.

Association between serum uric acid levels and lung function in the NHANES cohort (2007-2012): A cross-sectional analysis of a diverse American population. Int J Rheum Dis 2024; 27:e15043. [PMID: 38287539 DOI: 10.1111/1756-185x.15043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/31/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperuricemia has been linked to various health conditions. However, the relationship between uric acid (UA) levels and lung function remains debated. METHODS In a cross-sectional study of 6750 participants aged 20-69 from NHANES, we assessed UA levels and lung function (FVC and FEV1). We conducted regression analyses while adjusting for potential confounders. RESULTS After accounting for factors like age, sex, BMI, smoking, and more, we found a negative association between UA FVC and FEV1. Specifically, for every 0.1 mg/dL increase in UA, FEV1 decreased by 15.265 mL, and FVC decreased by 24.46 mL. No association was observed with FEV1/FVC. Subgroup analyses revealed similar negative correlations among various groups, particularly in non-Hispanic Black females under 60. CONCLUSION Serum UA levels are inversely associated with FEV1 and FVC in the American population, with a notable impact on non-Hispanic Black females under 60.

Abstract
Uric acid, an end product of the purinergic system, plays a role in several physiological systems that are responsive to stress. However, few studies have examined whether (1) uric acid concentrations change in response to acute stress, and (2) there are cross-system associations where uric acid might influence other physiological system responses to acute physical stress. The present study measured indices of the purinergic, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, sympathetic, and parasympathetic systems (uric acid, cortisol, pre-ejection period, and root mean square of successive differences, respectively) in response to a standardized acute physical pain stressor, the cold pressor task. A diverse sample of participants (n = 67; mean age = 20.5 years, 52% female; 48% male) from a larger study completed anthropometric measurements and took part in a room temperature water task followed by the cold pressor task and sociodemographic questionnaires. Throughout the study, electrocardiography and impedance cardiography were measured continuously, and five saliva samples were collected that were later assayed for cortisol and uric acid. Descriptively, uric acid increased about 32 min following completion of the cold pressor. Resting uric acid concentrations were not associated with the autonomic nervous system response, but higher resting uric acid concentrations were associated with increased cortisol concentrations. Future research should examine the extent to which the purinergic system influences, and is influenced by, other types of stress and other physiological systems. The current findings highlight the potential role of an understudied biomarker and physiological system in the stress literature and have implications for basic and mechanistic researchers who study psychoneuroendocrinology, stress, and health.

Serum Myeloperoxidase as a Biomarker of Asthma Severity Among Adults: A Case Control Study. Rep Biochem Mol Biol 2022; 11:182-189. [PMID: 35765520 PMCID: PMC9208555 DOI: 10.52547/rbmb.11.1.182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 10/25/2021] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
Background The contribution of neutrophils is still indistinct in the inflammatory response of bronchial asthma (BAs). Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an enzyme released from the primary azurophilic granules of the neutrophils. The study aimed to evaluate the levels of serum MPO as a biomarker for the assessment of the level of asthma control. Methods The study participants included 94 asthmatic patients and 86 healthy controls. The identification of asthma severity had assessed using the ''Global Initiative for Asthma guidelines''. Asthmatic adults had divided into three groups: Good (n= 22), partial (n= 30), and poor control (n= 44). Also, patients have been divided again into two groups (treated and untreated) for BAs. Results The predicted FEV1% and the peak expiratory flow (PEF/L) of all participants had verified by spirometry. The mean patients' age was 31.9±15.1 year, with a predominance of females. The mean asthma duration was 10.5±8.6 years. Mean spirometric parameters (FEV1 and PEF) were significantly lower among the patients (0.00). Significant higher MPO levels had observed among BAs patients (p-0.00). The MPO levels have not differed significantly with asthma levels and had significant differences with the history of treatment. There was a nonsignificant negative correlation between the mean MPO levels and the spirometry variables among the patients. ROC curves revealed a sensitivity, specificity, accuracy for MPO (80.9%, 72.1%, and 84.3%), respectively to predict asthmatic severity. Conclusion There were significantly higher MPO levels compared to healthy controls. Levels of serum MPO had a non-significant positive correlation with levels of asthma control, but a negative non-significant correlation with spirometric results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between uric acid and patients with type 1 (NT1) remains unclear. UA may contribute to the development of depression. Depression is also common in NT1. Our study aimed to evaluate serum levels of UA, creatinine, and UA/Cr ratio, and examine the association of serum UA levels with psychological status in NT1 patients. METHODS This is a case-control study conducted on 48 patients diagnosed with NT1 and 40 healthy controls (HC). The 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating (HAMD-17) was used as screening tools for depressive symptoms for patients with NT1. Serum UA, creatinine, and UA/Cr ratio were measured. In addition, the correction of UA status and scores of depressive scales was statistically analyzed. RESULTS Approximately 70% of all subjects with NT1 had depression or depressive symptoms compared with the HC group, the serum UA levels and UA/Cr ratios were higher in patients with NT1 (p < 0.05). In addition, there was a negative correlation between UA levels and HAMD-17 scores in NT1 patients (r = -0.334; p = 0.020). CONCLUSION We found that serum UA levels were higher in patients with NT1, and the serum UA levels were negatively correlated with depressive symptom scores. Further well-designed prospective cohort studies are needed to determine the causality of the correlation and to further clarify the pathophysiological mechanisms of UA in NT1 patients.
