Description
Summary:Urea is the main product secreted in normal human urine, which will contain a small amount of uric acid.Uric acid is the end product of purines known as trioxypurines, which have a weakly acidic alcoholic form, and if purines are metabolized, the risk of hyperuricemia will be increased. It has been shown that the risk of developing CKD in patients with increased serum uric acid levels is 2.21 times that of normal patients. There are experimental data to divide patients into two groups, one is patients with hyperuricemia and the other is patients with normal serum uric acid, the results of the study show that patients with hyperuricemia have a significantly greater probability of developing acute kidney injury than patients with normal serum uric acid, and most of them need kidney replacement therapy. This review focuses on the development of kidney damage in hyperuricemia.
