Uric acid levels and heart failure: A mendelian randomization study

Uric acid, the end-product of purine metabolism within the human body, has been the subject of studies exploring its potential association with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. However, the precise relationship between uric acid levels and heart failure remains elusive. In this particula...

description Uric acid, the end-product of purine metabolism within the human body, has been the subject of studies exploring its potential association with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. However, the precise relationship between uric acid levels and heart failure remains elusive. In this particular study, aggregated data from genome-wide association studies on uric acid and heart failure were utilized to perform a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis utilizing R software. The aim was to uncover any causal link between these variables. The primary outcome was assessed using inverse variance weighted (IVW) methodology, while sensitivity analyses employed MR-Egger, weighted median (WME), and MR Pleiotropy RESidual Sum and Outlier (MR-PRESSO) techniques. IVW results revealed a possible causal relationship between elevated uric acid levels and an increased risk of heart failure (OR: 1.09, 95 % CI: 1.01–1.17, P
