Abstract EN
Objective.
Few studies have suggested an inverse relation between coffee intake and serum concentrations of uric acid (UA), but none has addressed the relation in men and women separately.
We examined the relation between coffee intake and serum UA levels in free-living middle-aged and elderly men and women in Fukuoka, Japan.
Methods.
Study subjects were derived from the baseline survey of a cohort study on lifestyle-related diseases, and included 11.662 men and women aged 49–76 years; excluded were those with medication for gout and hyperuricemia, use of diuretic drugs, and medical care for cancer or chronic kidney disease.
Statistical adjustment was made for body mass index, alcohol use, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and other factors.
Results.
There were inverse associations of coffee consumption with serum UA concentrations and hyperuricemia in men regardless of adjustment for covariates.
Women showed a statistically significant, but weaker, inverse association between coffee and serum UA levels after allowance for the confounding factors.
Conclusion.
The findings add to evidence for a protective association between coffee intake and hyperuricemia.
