Abstract

This research aimed to identify the correlation between the metabolic syndrome, which is one of the cardiovascular risk factors and emerging as an issue in the society, and the serum uric acid level. The research was conducted on a total of 1,444 patients who took a medical examination at a health examination center. The research subjects were composed of 977 men and 467 women. By conducting physical measurement and the blood test on the subjects, the research identified the correlation between the serum uric acid level and the metabolic syndrome and compared the number of the risk factors by dividing the class of the serum uric acid. The average level of serum uric acid was identified higher in men at $6.30{\pm}1.39mg/dL$ than $4.43{\pm}0.89mg/dL$ in women. Men had a correlation between age, waist size, systolic blood pressure, neutral fat, HDL-cholesterol, WBC count and ESR and the serum uric acid level (p<0.05), while women had a correlation between waist size, diastolic blood pressure level, neutral fat, HDL-cholesterol and ESR and the serum uric acid level (p<0.05). The number of the risk factors depending on the serum uric acid level increased as the serum uric acid level rose. The overall prevalence rate of the metabolic syndrome was higher in men at 17.4% than 10.2% in women. This showed that there is a statistically relevant relevance between the metabolic syndrome and the serum uric acid level, and the number of the risk factors of the metabolic syndrome will go up with an increase in the serum uric acid level.

본 연구는 사회적으로 관심이 증가하고 있는 심혈관질환의 위험인자인 대사증후군과 혈청 요산 농도와의 연관성을 알아보기 위함이다. 연구 대상자는 건강검진센터에서 검진한 수진자 총 1,444명을 대상으로 시행하였으며, 남성은 977명, 여성은 467명을 대상으로 하였다. 대상자들은 신체계측과 혈액검사를 시행하여 혈청 요산과 대사증후군 위험인자들과의 상관성과 혈청 요산의 등급을 구분하여 발생하는 위험인자의 수를 비교하였다. 연구결과 평균연령은 남녀 각각 $41.63{\pm}6.29$세, $35.75{\pm}6.61$세로 나타났다. 혈청 요산의 평균수치는 남성이 $6.30{\pm}1.39mg/dL$, 여성은 $4.43{\pm}0.89mg/dL$로 남성이 높게 나왔다. 혈청 요산 농도에 따른 상관관계는 남성에서는 나이, 허리둘레, 수축기 혈압, 중성지방, HDL-cholesterol, WBC count, ESR이 상관관계가 있었으며(p<0.05), 여성의 경우는 허리둘레, 이완기 혈압, 중성지방, HDL-cholesterol, ESR이 상관관계가 있다고 나왔다(p<0.05). 혈청 요산 농도의 등급에 따른 위험인자 수는 혈청 요산 농도가 증가할수록 증가하였다. 대사증후군의 전체적인 유병률은 남성이 17.4%로 여성의 10.2% 보다 높게 나왔다. 대사증후군과 혈청 요산 농도와의 통계적으로 유의한 관련성이 있다는 것을 알 수 있었고, 혈청 요산의 농도가 증가할수록 대사 증후군의 위험인자 또한 관련성이 커진다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 혈청 요산 농도와 대사증후군과의 연관성 연구를 통해 대사증후군을 진단받지 않은 젊은 성인에서 대사증후군의 예방을 위한 대상자 선정에 혈청 요산 농도를 활용할 수 있다.
