| Summary: | Aim: Hyperuricemia is a risk factor for hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular diseases .
Body adiposity index (BAI), lipid accumalation pruduct (LAP), cardiometabolic index (CMI) and visceral adiposity index (VAI) are non-traditional parameters used to evaluate visceral obesity. There are not enough studies on the relationship between non-traditional adiposity markers and hyperuricemia. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between hyperuricemia and non-traditional adiposity markers in pre-menopausal women.
Material and Method: 86 premenopausal women were included in the study. Height, weight, waist circumference (WC) and hip circumference measurements were made, Body mass index (kg / m²) was calculated. Blood pressure was measured from both arms after 10 minutes of rest. Blood samples were taken after 12 hours of fasting.
Rusults: 43 women (%50) had hyperuricemia. In the group with hyperuricemia, traditional and non-traditional (BAI, LAP, VAI, CMI) adiposity markers were increased. A positive correlation was found between serum uric acid (UA) levels and adiposity markers. WC, LAP and CMI were found to be independent adiposity markers of serum UA.
Conclusion: In our study, we determined that WC, LAP and CMI were independent adiposity markers for serum uric acid value.
