Abstract
AbstractObjectiveThe current study aimed to explore the predictive ability of serum uric acid (SUA) in patients suffering from acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).MethodPubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Medline databases were systematically searched from their respective inceptions to February 2018. Systematic analysis and random-effects meta–analysis of prognostic effects were performed to evaluate STEMI outcomes [i.e., in-hospital mortality, one-year mortality, in-hospital Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE)] in relation to SUA.ResultsA total of 12 studies (containing 7,735 patients with acute STEMI) were identified (5,562 low SUA patients and 3,173 high SUA patients). Systematic analysis of these studies showed that high SUA patients exhibited a higher incidence of in-hospital MACE (OR, 2.30; P < 0.00001), in-hospital mortality (OR, 3.03; P < 0.0001), and one-year mortality (OR, 2.58; P < 0.00001), compared with low SUA patients.ConclusionsAcute STEMI patients with high SUA exhibited an elevated incidence rate of in-hospital MACE, in-hospital mortality, and one-year mortality. Further randomized controlled trials will be needed to verify these results.
