a Hyperuricemia is defined as having a serum uric acid level > 7.0 mg/dl for men and > 5.7 mg/dl for women. bAdjusted for age, sex, race, body mass index, use of diuretics, allopurinol and uricosuric agents, and hypertension. cAdjusted for age, sex, race, body mass index, use of diuretics, allopurinol and uricosuric agents, hypertension, serum calcium levels, serum alkaline phosphatase levels, serum phosphorus levels, serum vitamin D levels, and glomerular filtration rate. dAdditionally adjusted for total daily intake of alcohol, energy, protein, sugar, and caffeine.
