Associations of Plasma Lipidomic Profiles with Uric Acid and Hyperuricemia Risk in Middle-Aged and Elderly Chinese

Little is known about the links of disturbed lipid metabolism with hyperuricemia (HUA). We aimed to investigate the associations of lipidomic profiles with uric acid (UA)/HUA and their modifying factors in middle-aged and elderly Chinese. A total of 350 lipids were quantified in 2247 community-based Chinese aged 50–70 years by high-coverage targeted lipidomics. HUA was defined by plasma UA > 420 μmol/L in men or > 360 μmol/L in women. The prevalence of HUA in this population was 10.4
