Description
Summary:The article presents the results of independent study of hyperuricemia peculiarities among the women in postmenopau­sal period, taking into account indicators of body mass index, lipid metabolism and bone mineral density. The higher level of uric ­acid was found among women in postmenopausal period with ma­ximal body mass index (BMI > 35), with the highest degree of obesity. Significant correlation was determined between uric acid and triglyceride (r = 0.26, p < 0.05), atherogenic coefficient (r = 0.24, p < 0.05) among women in postmenopausal period. The incidence of osteoporosis in women with hyperuricemia was lower than the one of women who had a normal rate of uric acid: 19 % and 34 % at the level of lumbar spine, and 17 % and 21 % at the level of fe­moral neck.
