Long-term hyperuricemia impact on atrial fibrillation outcomes

No studies have been conducted to analyze the impact of serum uric acid (UA) levels on the outcome of atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. We aimed to evaluate the effect of hyperuricemia (HU) on the prognosis of AF. Consecutive patients who consulted our emergency room for an episode of AF, already k...

Description
Summary:No studies have been conducted to analyze the impact of serum uric acid (UA) levels on the outcome of atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. We aimed to evaluate the effect of hyperuricemia (HU) on the prognosis of AF. Consecutive patients who consulted our emergency room for an episode of AF, already known or newly diagnosed, between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2015 (n=2017) were enrolled. After applying exclusion criteria, 1772 patients were included. Serum UA levels in the 6 months before or after the date of the episode were recorded and classified into quartiles: Q1 (n=443) serum UA levels
