  • Title: Familial hyperuricemia and renal insufficiency.
    Author: Foreman JW, Yudkoff M.
    Journal: Child Nephrol Urol; 1990; 10(2):115-8. PubMed ID: 2253250.
    Abstract:
    A kindred is described in which hyperuricemia and renal insufficiency were observed in three generations. The hyperuricemia appeared to precede the renal diseases. Lowering the serum uric acid level to normal did not decrease the progression of renal insufficiency. This suggested that the hyperuricemia was a marker of a familial nephropathy and possibly not the cause.
