Epidemic characteristics of hyperuricemia among first-year students at a college in Fuzhou City from 2019 to 2021
Objective This study analyzed the characteristics and change trends of hyperuricemia(HUA)among first-year students at a college in Fuzhou,to provide a scientific basis for HUA prevention and control among college stu-dents.Methods First-year students from a college in Fuzhou City from 2019 to 2021 underwent physical examinations,including height,weight,blood pressure,BMI,and pulse pressure differences were measured,serum uric acid and glutamic-pyruanine transaminase(ALT)were detected,and the HUA epidemic characteristics and change trends were analyzed.Re-sults A total of 5 461 first-year college students were included in the analysis from 2019 to 2021.The detection rate of HUA was 18.57％and showed a generally increasing trend(xMH2=68.043,P＜0.001).The detection rate of HUA was 33.05％in males and 3.44％in females,and the difference was statistically significant(x2=790.848,P＜0.001).The detection rate of HUA in the abnormal ALT group was 51.37％,whereas that in the normal ALT group was 16.47％,and the difference was sta-tistically significant(x2=249.093,P＜0.001);The detection rate of HUA in patients with a pulse pressure difference ≥60 mmHg was 33.11％,and that in patients with a pulse pressure difference＜60 mmHg was 17.71％;the difference was statisti-cally significant(x2=45.209,P＜0.001).The detection rate of HUA increased with increasing BMI,SBP,and DBP(xMH2 of 466.123,266.053,and 111.375,all P＜0.001).Conclusions HUA is becoming increasingly severe among first-year college students.Students with male sex,obesity,hypertension,high pulse pressure,and abnormal ALT have elevated likelihood of developing HUA.Health education should be strengthened for key groups,and healthy lifestyles should be advocated for to curb the increasing HUA trend among college students.
