Hyperuricemia Increases the Risk of Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Association between hyperuricemia (HUA) and atrial fibrillation (AF) remains unclear. We reviewed clinical evidence and aimed to determine whether hyperuricemia leads to a high risk of atrial fibrillation. Most studies were identified through databases online.

| description | Association between hyperuricemia (HUA) and atrial fibrillation (AF) remains unclear. We reviewed clinical evidence and aimed to determine whether hyperuricemia leads to a high risk of atrial fibrillation. Most studies were identified through databases online. Keywords used in literature search were hyperuricemia, atrial fibrillation, metabolic disorder, endocrine disorder, or uric acid. Three studies were provided by the authors. Literature search was performed without any data or language restriction. Observational studies, including cohort studies and cross-sectional studies, were used. Study type should be clearly defined. Cross-sectional studies should clearly introduce the sources of epidemiological data. Studies were excluded if with too many complications unrelated to AF enrolled. Data were independently extracted by three individuals. Data synthesis was conducted by R version 4.1.2. Prevalence of atrial fibrillation was the main outcome. Results of meta-analysis were presented as risk ratio (RR) for different prevalence of AF between individuals with and without HUA. All data included were obtained after follow-up work is completed. Data from 608,810 participants showed that patients with hyperuricemia were easier to suffer from atrial fibrillation (RR, 2.42; 95% CI, 1.24–3.03). And the meta-regressions suggested growth of linear proportion between the ratio of current drinkers and hyperuricemia (QM = 41.0069, P<0.001). Subgroup analyses demonstrated consistent results in different countries. And design of the observational studies brought heterogeneity, but no uncertainties. Patients with hyperuricemia were easier to suffer from atrial fibrillation. Treatment of hyperuricemia or gout may bring potential benefits for AF patients. |
