Abstract EN

Background: Besides gout, elevated uric acid level is related to a variety of other conditions including increase alcohol and purine rich food consumption and obesity.

Hyperuricemia is considered to be a considered to be a common lifestyle disorder related with obesity.

Objectives: To evaluate serum uric acid level in Sudanese obese subjects.

Materials and Methods: Analytical case control study conducted at Khartoum state during the period from July to August 2021.

Fifty obese subjects as a case group and 50 as a control groups .

Uric acid level was assayed using spectrophotometer.

The data analyzed using SPSS version ( 25).

Results: The serum uric acid and BMI in obese is a significantly higher than non obese with p value = 0.000.

In obese group show mean uric acid concentration of males is significantly higher than females (p< 0.05).

The risk of developing CVD is 8 time higher in obese subjects with high uric acid levels.

Serum uric acid level showed strong significant positive correlation with BMI(r=0.79, p= 0.000), and no correlated with age (r=0.03, p= 0.7).

Conclusion: The obese had a significantly higher of serum uric acid.

The elevation of uric acid level is sex dependent and is positively correlation with BMI.
