Research progress on hyperuricemia in juveniles

Abstract

The incidence of hyperuricemia （HUA） has been increased year by year， showing a trend of younger onset. Juvenile HUA patients are potentially susceptible to gout and renal damage in the future， which pose significant hidden threat to the society， family and juvenile health. At present， juvenile HUA has been rarely studied at home and abroad， and unified diagnostic and treatment criteria and guidelines are still lacking. In this article， the epidemiology， diagnostic criteria， etiological factor， relationship with related diseases and treatment of juvenile HUA were summarized and reviewed， aiming to better understand and grasp the characteristics， and guide clinical diagnosis and treatment of juvenile HUA.
