aCalculated using binary logistic regression.
†Men: Q1 (uric acid ≤ 309.30 μmol/L), Q2 (309.30 < uric acid ≤ 356.90 μmol/L), Q3 (356.90 < uric acid ≤ 404.50 μmol/L), and Q4 (uric acid > 404.50 μmol/L). Women: Q1 (uric acid ≤ 232.00 μmol/L), Q2 (232.00 < uric acid ≤ 273.60 μmol/L), Q3 (273.60 < uric acid ≤ 321.20 μmol/L), and Q4 (uric acid > 321.20 μmol/L).
Model 1 adjusted for race.
Model 2 adjusted for race, body mass index, waist circumference, drinking status, education level, hypertension, serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, and urate-lowering therapy.
