Serum uric acid is associated with coronary artery calcification in early chronic kidney disease: a cross-sectional study
Abstract Background Although uric acid (UA) is regarded as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, whether UA is an independent risk factor contributing to coronary artery calcification in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is not well known. We evaluated whether UA level is associated with coronary art...
