the present study aimed to compare the serum level of uric acid in patients with and without heart failure and also to determine the association between uric acid level and clinical status by killip class in patients with stemi. this case-control study was conducted on 50 consecutives as control group and 50 patients with acute heart failure, (20 patients had acute stemi), who documented by bot...

objective: the goal of this study was to assess the utility of serum uric acid in preeclampsia diagnosis and its correlation with some maternal and fetal outcomes. materials and methods: a case-control study was performed on 26 term pregnant women with preeclampsia and 52 normal pregnant women. serum uric acid, platelet count, hematocrit, gestational age, and birth weight of all patients were m...

background and purpose: the relationship between uric acid and stroke recurrence is ambiguous. some studies have explored this relationship in acute ischemic stroke but had different results. we evaluated the association of admission uric acid level with risk of stroke recurrence in patients with ischemic stroke. methods: we studied ischemic stroke patients presenting to our hospital with magne...

A selective electrochemical method for the determination of uric acid was developed by using nano poly cresol red modified glassy carbon electrode. This new material has been characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy, cyclic voltammetry and Differential pulse voltammetry. This modified electrode shows excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of uric acid in the presence of ...

objective: it is well known that diabetes is one of the main health challenges. according to the evidence presented in recent years by investigators, serum uric acid has emerged as a possible risk factor for diabetes mellitus. the aim of the present study was to compare the mean serum uric acid and the antioxidant activity of glutathione levels in patients with diabetes and the control group. m...

this paper describes the development, electrochemical characterization and utilization of novel modified molybdenum (vi) complex-carbon nanotube paste electrode for the electrocatalytic determination of ascorbic acid (aa). the electrochemical profile of the proposed modified electrode was analyzed by cyclic voltammetry (cv) that showed a shift of the oxidation peak potential of aa about 235 mv ...

to study the changes of serum uric acid level which is influenced by various factors including nutrition, race, socio-economic conditions age, sex, obesity and hyper lipidemia, a wide variety of survey appeared to be performed. for this study in six large provinces of iran out of 12,524 apparently healthy individuals a total of 2,744 persons of both sexes (1,439 females, 1,305 males) were selec...

background: impact of high level of uric acid on stroke is still controversial. we conducted this study to investigate the relationship between acute ischemic non-embolic stroke and serum levels of uric acid. methods: this was a case-control study on patients with acute ischemic non-embolic stroke in rafsanjan, iran. the control group consisted of normal persons who were similar to the case gro...

background: the role of uric acid as a risk factor for vascular disease and acute stroke is controversial and there is little information about it. in this study, we determined serum uric acid levels in patients with acute stroke and assessed its relationship with cerebrovascular risk factors. methods: in this cross sectional study, we assessed patients with acute stroke who were admitted in fi...
