| Abstract | Objectives Knee synovial abnormalities, potentially treatment targets for knee pain and osteoarthritis, are common in middle-aged and older population, but its etiology remains unclear. We examined the associations between hyperuricemia and knee synovial abnormalities detected by ultrasound in a general population sample. Methods Participants aged ≥ 50 years were from a community-based observational study. Hyperuricemia was defined as serum urate (SU) level > 416 µmol/L in men and > 357 µmol/L in women. Ultrasound of both knees was performed to determine the presence of synovial abnormalities, i.e., synovial hypertrophy, effusion, or Power Doppler signal (PDS). We examined the relation of hyperuricemia to prevalence of knee synovial abnormalities and its laterality, and the dose-response relationships between SU levels and the prevalence of knee synovial abnormalities. Results In total, 3,405 participants were included in the analysis. Hyperuricemia was associated with higher prevalence of knee synovial abnormality (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.21, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.02 to 1.43), synovial hypertrophy (aOR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.05 to 1.68), and effusion (aOR = 1.21, 95% CI: 1.02 to 1.44), respectively. There were dose-response relationships between SU levels and synovial abnormalities. Additionally, the hyperuricemia was more associated with prevalence of bilateral than with that of unilateral knee synovial abnormality, synovial hypertrophy, or effusion; however, no significant association was observed between hyperuricemia and PDS. Conclusion In this population-based study we found that hyperuricemia was associated with higher prevalence of knee synovial abnormality, synovial hypertrophy and effusion, suggesting that hyperuricemia may play a role in pathogenesis of knee synovial abnormalities. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
