Prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) according to serum uric acid quartiles. After stratifying the patients into 4 groups according to their SUA quartiles, a trend was found that higher SUA quartiles were associated with higher percentage of CAD. The values were significantly different as a whole, and the incidence of CAD in quartile 1 was significantly different with any one of the other quartiles, but no significant difference was found among quartiles 2, 3, and 4.
