The association between hyperuricemia and atrioventricular blocks:A retrospective study

【摘要】 Background Atrioventricular block(AVB)is associated with adverse events even cardiac death. Serum uric acid(SUA)might lead to cadiovascular disease including arrhythmia and SUA lowering therapy could lower the risk. But the study of the association between AVB and SUA is rare at present. Method Sixty-four patients with AVB from Sep 2017 to Sep 2018 were enrolled as case group and another 64 patients in the same period were enrolled as control group. The levels of serum uric acid(SUA)and related parameters were compared between the two groups. Results The level of SUA was significantly higher in case group than in control group(402.13±140.08 vs. 351.17±87.81,P=0.015). HUA was associated with AVB significantly(OR 2.863,95%CI1.305～6.279,P=0.009),even after adjustment for confounding factors(OR 2.609,95%CI 1.081～6.296,P=0.033). For the comparison among AVB subgroups,only the association between HUA and Ⅲ-degree subtypes was found significantly(OR 3.411,95%CI 1.452～8.016,P=0.005). Conclusion HUA is positively associated with AVB independent of other potential confounding factors. But further analysis of different subtypes indicated that only the association between HUA and Ⅲ-degree AVB was found significant.更多还原
