Abstract:

Objective The meta analysis method was applied to comprehensively and systematically evaluate relations between uric acid and prognosis of Chinese patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang databases were searched by computer system to collect case-control studies on relation between the level of uric acid and prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke in Chinese from database establishment to February 2022. The Meta analysis was performed using STATA 16 software. Results Thirteen literatures representing a total of 11, 046 study subjects (n=8, 016 in the good prognosis group, and n=3 030 in the poor prognosis group) were included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that the uric acid level of patients in the good prognosis group was higher than that of poor prognosis group [WMD=18.44 μmol/L, 95%CI(3.20, 33.68), P<0.05]. The results of sensitivity analysis and publication bias test showed that the study results were stable and reliable.Conclusion The level of uric acid in Chinese may be related to the prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke, and the higher level of uric acid in Chinese patients may have a better prognosis.
