Abstract
After 3 years since the release of the first consensus on the management of patients with hyperuricemia and high cardiovascular risk. During this time, new data appeared that confirm the importance of uric acid control as a risk factor for cardiovascular complications and allow optimizing the algorithm for managing such patients. Studies since the first consensus emerged have identified new hyperuricemia thresholds for cardiovascular risk. The present consensus regulates the prescription of urate-lowering therapy depending on the severity of the detected hyperuricemia. However, although a large body of data demonstrates a positive effect of urate-lowering therapy on the cardiovascular prognosis, there is a need for additional evidence to support the treatment of asymptomatic hyperuricemia.
