摘要
The role of uric acid as an independent risk factor in the development of coronary heart disease (CHD) has been questioned as serum urate is related to many of the established etiological risk factors for cardiovascular disease which could confound the observed association. This review assesses the role of elevated serum uric acid as an independent role for coronary heart disease.
