Abstract
rESulTS: Hyperuricemic patients had significantly lower levels of serum vitamin D level compared with normouricemic patients (p<0.001) whereas there was no difference between the groups in terms of serum calcium, phosphorus, parathormone and alkaline phosphatase. Severe deficiency (25(OH) vitamin D <10) was significantly more common among patients with hyperuricemia (p<0.001). When vitamin D levels were analyzed according to age, a significant inverse correlation between vitamin D and serum uric acid level was found in decades 7 and 8. Age, eGFR and vitamin D level below 20 appeared as independent associates of serum uric acid levels.
