The Significance and Correlation Analysis of Serum Uric Acid and High Sensitivity CRP in the Energy-Limiting Balance Intervention in Obese Patients.

OBJECTIVE

Our aim was to explore the effects of the energy-limiting balance intervention on serum uric acid (SUA) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and analyze the correlation between the two.

METHODS

Retrospectively chosen study patients were 98 obese individuals who received diagnoses and care in Xuanwu Hospital Capital Medical University between January 2021 and September 2022. The patients were divided into the intervention group and the control group via random number table, with 49 patients in each group. The control group received standard food interventions, while the intervention group received minimal energy balance interventions. The clinical outcomes in both groups were compared. We also compared patients' pre- and post-intervention levels of SUA, hs-CRP, and markers of glucose and lipid metabolism were assessed. Analysis was done on the relationship between markers of glucose and lipid metabolism and SUA and hs-CRP levels.

RESULTS

Patients in the intervention and control groups had respective ineffective rates of 6.12% and 20.41%, effective rates of 51.02% and 57.14%, substantial effective rates of 42.86% and 22.45% and overall effective rates of 93.88% and 79.59%. The intervention group's overall effective rate was substantially greater than the control group's rate (P < .05). After the intervention, patients in the intervention group had markedly decreased SUA and hs-CRP levels than patients in the control group (P < .05). Prior to the intervention, there was no clinically meaningful discrepancy between the two groups in terms of fasting blood glucose, insulin, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) or 2 hours postprandial blood glucose (P > .05). Following the intervention there was a statistically significant discrepancy between the intervention group and the control group in terms of fasting blood glucose, insulin, HbA1c and 2 hours postprandial blood glucose (P < .05). According to a Pearson correlation study, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) was negatively correlated with the SUA levels and positively correlated with fasting blood sugar, insulin, triglycerides, total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL). Before the intervention, there was no clinically meaningful variation in the intervention or control groups in triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL or HDL (P > .05). Following the intervention, patients in the intervention group had markedly decreased triglycerides, total cholesterol and LDL levels than patients in the control group, while their HDL levels had substantially increased compared with the control group (P < .05). Fasting blood sugar, insulin, triglycerides and LDL all had a positive correlation with their SUA levels (P < .05). The amount hs-CRP was inversely correlated with HDL (P < .05) and positively correlated with fasting blood glucose, insulin, 2h postprandial blood glucose, HbA1c, triglycerides and LDL.

CONCLUSION

An energy-limiting balance intervention can effectively reduce SUA and hs-CRP, regulate the metabolism of glucose and lipid and were closely related.
