ASYMPTOMATIC HYPERURICEMIA IN ADULTS IN ECOLOGICALLY UNFAVORABLE AREAS OF THE AKTOBE REGION
Purpose of the study is to identify the inuence of environmental factors on purine metabolism and identify the incidence of asymptomatic hyperuricemia among adults in the Aktobe region. One-stage cross-sectional study of the population of the Aktobe region, living near the Zhanazhol village and the population of the Hobda district center (control group) was carried out. The study involved 197 adults, 65.9% of women and 34.1% of men. Methods of research: anthropometry; questioning; laboratory examination of blood serum (laboratory «IN VITRO Kazakhstan»). The prevalence of hyperuricemia among the adult population of the Aktobe region was 12.66%. In the general sample, hyperuricemia among the male population (8.6%) was detected twice as often, compared with women (4.06%). The analysis of interrelations showed that the most signicant contribution to the increase in the level of uric acid is made by the male sex, the waist / hip index, and blood lipids
