Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A number of cross-sectional analysis studies have been conducted to determine the relationships between serum uric acid and related variables or clinical manifestations. However, few data related to changes in serum uric acid within the same cohort population at two separate periods of time have been reported. In this study, we investigated the changes in serum uric acid in a population from baseline to 1-year follow-up and examined the associations with related parameters and medical conditions. A total of 1,437 eligible male subjects who underwent 2 medical examinations at a health promotion center at an interval of approximately 12 months were enrolled in this study. Data were obtained from routine physical assessments such as blood pressure, height, waist circumference, blood analyses for liver function, renal function, lipid profile, and electrolytes, along with standardized questionnaires including self-reported data. In this population, serum uric acid was significantly increased at 1-year follow-up compared with the baseline level (5.94±1.20 vs 5.99±1.22, p=0.003). Changes of some confounders such as total bilirubin, creatinine, BUN, phosphorus, total cholesterol, and triglyceride were significantly associated with changes in serum uric acid. Among them, serum creatinine may be the most influential in determining the serum uric acid level (odds ratio=21.691, 95%CI=5.110-92.086). A change of serum uric acid over 1 year did not seem to affect changes in the clinical status for some medical conditions including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome. This analysis showed that a change in serum creatinine level between baseline and 1-year follow-up might be the most potent factor affecting a change in serum uric acid in healthy, male subjects. Changes of serum uric acid did not show any meaningful impact on the development of hypertension, heart failure, diabetes mellitus, and metabolic syndrome in this 1-year follow-up study. © Clinical Rheumatology 2007.
