Clinicopathological characteristics and related factors of IgA nephropathy with hyperuricemia by Ren Hui-min, Yang Shu-fen, Lu Chen

“…Objective To explore the clinicopathological characteristics of IgA nephropathy with hyperuricemia and examine the related influencing factors.Methods A total of 320 patients with primary IgA nephropathy receiving an initial renal biopsy from January 1,2015 to December 31,2019 were selected as research subjects.According to the serum level of uric acid, they were divided into two groups of hyperuricemia（n=111）and normal uric acid（n=209）.The inter-group differences of clinicopathological parameters were compared.The relevant factors of IgA nephropathy with hyperuricemia were analyzed by a regression model.Results Among 320 patients with IgA nephropathy, 34.7% had hyperuricemia.Proportion of male, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, uric acid, hemoglobin, triglyceride, urea nitrogen, creatinine and 24-hour urine protein were higher in hyperuricemia group than those in normal uric acid group（P<0.05）.However, high density lipoprotein and estimated glomerular filtration rate（eGFR）were lower than those in normal uric acid group（P<0.05）.In terms of pathological changes, proportion of segmental glomerulosclerosis/adhesion and tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis>25% was higher in hyperuricemia group than that in normal uric acid group（P<0.05）;further pairwise inter-group comparison indicated that proportion of tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis>50% group was higher than that in tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis<25% and 26%～50% groups（P<0.05）.And eGFR was an independent factor of IgA nephropathy with hyperuricemia（P<0.05）.Conclusion Clinicopathological changes of IgA nephropathy patients with hyperuricemia are more serious than those with normal serum uric acid.It implies that hyperuricemia may be correlated with the progression and poor prognosis of IgA nephropathy.A comprehensive control of uric acid, blood pressure and blood lipid helps to improve the prognosis of patients.…”
