Metabolic syndrome-related hyperuricemia is associated with a poorer prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer: A multicenter retrospective study

Cancer Management and Research Nov 26, 2021

Feng Q, Tang LJ, Luo DH, et al. - Metabolic syndrome (MetS)-related hyperuricemia holds prognostic importance on survival in colorectal cancer (CRC).

  • A correlation of hyperuricemia and MetS with the prognosis in malignant tumors has been reported.

  • A total of 1,271 patients who had undergone radical CRC resection were included and were preoperatively split into four groups: those with hyperuricemia alone (H), those with MetS alone (MS), those with MetS-related hyperuricemia (MSH), and those with neither condition (control [C] group).

  • Significant link between preoperative MetS and hyperuricemia was found.

  • In multivariate Cox regression analysis, MetS-related hyperuricemia (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.728) as well as MetS alone (HR = 1.631) were identified as independent predictors of death, whereas simple hyperuricemia was not.

  • Compared with the C group, the highest rate of tumor recurrence or metastasis was observed in the MSH group (HR = 5.103), followed by the MS (HR = 2.231) group.

  • There was a significant link of MetS with poor prognosis, with MetS-related hyperuricemia causing a significantly poorer prognosis.

  • In contrast, long-term prognosis remained unaffected by hyperuricemia alone.
