Table 4 Blood uric acid levels in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis with different levels of abdominal fat thickness.
| Group | Number of patients | Uric acid level (μmol/L) | P |
|---|---|---|---|
| Patients with lower abdominal fat thickness | 2 | 437.4±64.2 | – |
| Patients with normal abdominal fat thickness | 30 | 457.4±92.8 | *=0.337 |
| Patients with higher abdominal fat thickness | 67 | 496.3±82.4 | *=0.016, =0.021 |
| * indicates the statistical value compared to the group of patients with lower abdominal fat thickness; indicates the statistical value compared to the group of patients with normal abdominal fat thickness. | |||
