    Abstract:
    Distributions and correlations of serum uric acid (SUA) were studied in 13,885 men and 6,861 women who were between the ages of 20 and 90. In men and women the distribution of SUA is unimodal. The average SUA value is 6,28 mg/100 ml SD: 1,19) in men and 5,05 mg/100 ml (SD: 1,10) in women, 27% of the men and 4% of the women have a SUA level above 7 mg/100 ml. In men and in women correlations of SUA with an obesity index is strong (r = 0,272; r = 0,311). In men partial correlations between SUA and age, blood pressure, cholesterolemia, glycemia and hemoglobinemia diminish when obesity index is fixed. In women these correlations are stronger and do not vary when obesity index is fixed. In men and women the correlation between SUA and creatininemia is strong and do not vary when obesity index is fixed.
