Implication

Prospective cohort study investigates serum uric acid levels affecting adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women, suggesting significant implications.

Key Points

  • To investigate the relationship between serum uric acid levels and adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women.
  • Conducted a prospective cohort study among 200 pregnant women at Vinh Long General Hospital.
  • Divided participants into two groups: 100 with hyperuricemia and 100 without.
  • Recorded and compared complications related to pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum between both groups.
  • Adverse pregnancy outcomes were found in 28.0% of women with hyperuricemia compared to 15.0% without (odds ratio = 2.20).
  • Smoking rates were higher among women with complications in the hyperuricemia group (42.9% vs. 18.1%).
  • Identified alcohol consumption, serum creatinine, and hyperuricemia as independent predictors of adverse outcomes.
