Abstract:

Hyperuricemia is a common metabolic disease, whose pathological damage is not limited to kidney, joint and other parts, but can cause a series of systemic inflammatory reactions. Studies have found that hyperuricemia may promote the occurrence and development of coronary artery calcification by promoting inflammatory response and inducing oxidative stress, and interact with coronary heart disease risk factors such as hypertension and diabetes to increase the risk of coronary artery calcification. At the genetic level, mendelian randomization studies have also provided new evidence for the association between hyperuricemia and coronary artery disease. This article reviews the relationship between hyperuricemia and coronary artery calcification, aiming to clarify the possible mechanism of hyperuricemia affecting coronary artery calcification, and provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of coronary artery calcification.

Key words: Hyperuricemia, Coronary artery calcification, Inflammation, Oxidative stress, Comorbidities, Genetics, Review
