Abstract

Background and Objective

The relationship between hyperuricemia and mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is considerably controversial. Additionally, the strategy of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) has not been evaluated in patients with ACS with hyperuricemia. This study aims to evaluate the impact of hyperuricemia on the prognosis of ACS and explore the efficacy of ticagrelor compared with clopidogrel in patients with hyperuricemia.

Methods

The study enrolled 4319 patients divided into hyperuricemia (HUA, n = 1060) and normouricemia (NUA, n = 3259) groups. The inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW)-adjusted Cox regression analysis was used to evaluate the impact of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality.

Results

Hyperuricemia significantly increased the risk of all-cause death compared with patients with NUA at 7 days [adjusted hazard ratio (HR): 4.292, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.727–10.67]; P = 0.002), 14 days (adjusted HR: 2.871, 95% CI 1.326–6.219; P = 0.0074), 30 days (adjusted HR: 2.168, 95% CI 1.056–4.453; P = 0.035), 3 months (adjusted HR: 2.018, 95% CI 1.152–3.533; P = 0.0144) and 1 year (adjusted HR: 1.702, 95% CI 1.137–2.548; P = 0.009). No significant difference was found between ticagrelor and clopidogrel in 1-year all-cause mortality [7.0% versus 5.5%, adjusted HR: 1.114 (95% CI 0.609–2.037), P = 0.725] among patients with concomitant hyperuricemia.

Conclusion

Hyperuricemia was independently related to an increased risk of all-cause and cardiovascular death in patients with ACS undergoing PCI. At 1-year follow-up, there were no significant differences between ticagrelor and clopidogrel concerning all-cause and cardiovascular death in patients with hyperuricemia.
