Hyperuricemia is associated with progression of IgA nephropathy

Abstract: Baseline serum uric acid concentration is directly proportional to the rate of decline in renal functions in patients with IgAN. Uric acid-lowering treatments may be beneficial for the prevention of progression of IgAN. However, randomized controlled studies are needed for this purpose.

“…Several epidemiological studies in the general population and in patients with CKD show that uric acid is a major independent risk factor for the development and progression of renal disease [29], [30], [31], [32], [33]. This association was seen in studies with patients with diabetes mellitus as well [29], [34], [35], [36].…”

“…There was an increasing attention on the relationship between hyperuricemia [12] and chronic kidney disease [13]. High concentration of serum UA may lead to nephropathy and renal function impairment by directly mechanical damage or indirectly inflammation and cell phenotype inversion, resulting in the reduction of UA excretion and forming a vicious cycle.…”

“…Hyperuricemia appears to be a common manifestation in IgAN patients, even when their GFR are normal and has been considered as a risk factor for IgAN progression [10,11,22,23]. However, a clear evaluation of the role of uric acid with histopathological Oxford classification on IgAN progression is still lacking and the causative role of uric acid in IgAN progression Table 3.…”
