Increased Overall Heart Rate Irregularity Risk by Hyperuricemia in the General Population: Results from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Medicina 2020 September 25
Background and objectives: Hyperuricemia is one of the well-known cardiovascular risk factors. There is a growing interest in the association between hyperuricemia and arrhythmia. We used the representative sample data of Korean population to study the association between hyperuricemia and heart rate irregularity (HRI) that reflects total arrhythmia. Materials and Methods: We performed weighted multivariate logistic regression analysis to assess the association between hyperuricemia and HRI. Results: Of the 10,827 subjects, 1308 (13.2%) had hyperuricemia and 130 (1%) had HRI. In the presence of hyperuricemia, HRI was three times higher than that in the absence of hyperuricemia (OR 2.98, 95% CI 1.71-5.18). The risk of HRI was highest in subjects with both hypertension and hyperuricemia. In the subgroup analysis, the association of hyperuricemia with HRI was most pronounced in the smoker group. Conclusions: Hyperuricemia was highly correlated with HRI in adult Korean representative sample data. Hyperuricemia was associated with a nearly tripled risk for HRI. Hypertension has a synergistic effect with hyperuricemia on HRI. Further research is warranted to clarify the relationship between hyperuricemia and arrhythmia and its mechanism.
