Abbreviations: BP, blood pressure; CVD, cardiovascular disease. *The unweighted total number of people (denominator) available in each category. †Adjusted for age, gender, and race/ethnicity. ‡Healthy is defined as the absence of uncontrolled blood pressure and any of the 4 cardiovascular disease risk factors associated with serum uric acid. §Uncontrolled blood pressure, defined as a systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg, with no additional cardiovascular disease risk factors. ∥A cardiovascular disease risk factor is defined as any of the following: estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min per 1.73 m2, body mass index ≥30 kg/m2, high density lipoprotein <40 mg/dL (1.04 mmol/L) in men or <50 mg/dL (1.30 mmol/L) in women, or total cholesterol ≥240 mg/dL (6.22 mmol/L). ¶Unable to estimate variance due to small sample size in multiple weighting strata.
