The condition of patients with blood uric acid 700 μmol/L alone is usually relatively mild and can be improved by effective uric acid-lowering therapy. If the patient is combined with gout, gouty nephropathy and other complications, or the presence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus and other metabolic syndromes, the condition is usually more serious.
Blood uric acid 700 μmol/L is significantly higher than normal, and hyperuricemia is diagnosed if the patient’s fasting blood uric acid is greater than 420 μmol/L on two occasions not on the same day. Some patients with hyperuricemia may live their entire lives without gouty attacks or complications of gouty nephropathy, i.e. asymptomatic hyperuricemia, which is usually relatively mild.
If patients with hyperuricemia with blood uric acid 700 μmol/L have the above comorbidities, or at the same time have hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia and other manifestations of metabolic syndrome, which have a greater functional damage to the patient’s joints and multiple organs, the condition is relatively more serious.
Patients with blood uric acid 700μmol/L are recommended to visit the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology of regular hospitals for standardized treatment under the guidance of doctors.
