Assessment of Serum Uric Acid Levels According to Sex and Stage for Patients with Alzheimer-type Dementia

Öz:
Objective: The aim of this study was to identify serum uric acid (UA) concentrations according to disease stage in patients with Alzheimer-type dementia (AD),and to collect data related to the hypothesis that oxidative stress is effective on the etiopathogenesis and progression of disease stage.Materials and Methods: The study was conducted with 180 patients who were categorized into disease stages in accordance with the Clinical Dementia RatingScale (CDR) and 150 healthy individuals of the same age group. In our retrospective study, patients who showed more than one cognitive deficit and diagnosedwith possible AD according to the diagnostic criteria of National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke-Alzheimer’s Disease andRelated Disorders Association were administered the CDR, Mini-Mental Test (MMSE), Geriatric Depression Rating Scale (GDRS), and individuals in the controlgroup were administered the MMSE and GDRS. Venous blood samples for biochemical studies were collected after 12-14 hours of fasting in the patient andcontrol groups.Results: In patients diagnosed as having AD, it was found that there was a statistically significant increase in age and duration of disease parallel with theprogression of disease stages, and a decrease in UA and albumin concentrations in both males and females (p<0.05).Conclusion: Our study supports the hypothesis that the decrease detected in serum UA concentrations in parallel with the progression of disease stages isdirectly related to the pathogenesis of AD.For the identification of chronic progressive diseases such as AD and to take precautions, the identification of variations in easily accessible and low-cost parameterssuch as serum albumin and UA concentrations in the early stages becomes important. In future years, when neuroprotective and neuro-restorative treatmentoptions are available, identification of serum UA values as a marker of disease progression and knowledge of the association between serum UA concentrations anddisease stage in our data will guide and support research into disease etiology.

Alzheimer Tipi Demans Tanılı Hastalarda Cinsiyete ve Evrelere Göre Serum Ürik Asit Seviyelerinin Değerlendirilmesi

Öz:
Amaç: Alzheimer tipi demans (AH) tanılı hastalarda hastalık evresine göre serum ürik asit (ÜA) seviyelerinin tespiti ile oksidatif stresin hastalık etiyolojisindeki rolüne ve hastalık evresinin ilerlemesi üzerindeki olası etkilerine yönelik veriler toplanması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma, Clinical Dementia Rating Scale (CDR) kriterlerine göre evrelere ayrılan 180 hasta ve hastalarla aynı yaş aralığında sağlıklı 150 birey ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Retrospektif olarak yapılan çalışmamızda, birden fazla bilişsel alanda bozukluk gösteren ve National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke-Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Disorders Association tanı kriterlerine göre olası AH tanısı konulmuş hastalara CDR, MiniMental Test (MMSE), Geriatrik Depresyon Rating Scale (GDRS), kontrol grubundaki bireylere MMSE ve GDRS uygulanmıştır. Hasta ve kontrol gruplarında 12-14 saat açlıktan sonra biyokimyasal çalışmalar için venöz kan örnekleri alınmıştır. Bulgular: AH tanılılarda, hastalık evrelerindeki artışa paralel olarak kadın ve erkeklerde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı seviyede yaş ve hastalık sürelerinin arttığı, ÜA ve albümin seviyelerinin azaldığı tespit edilmiştir (p<0,05). Sonuç: Çalışmamız, ÜA’nın serum seviyelerindeki hastalık evrelerindeki ilerlemeye paralel olarak tespit edilen azalmanın AH ile doğrudan ilişkili olduğu hipotezini desteklemektedir. AH gibi kronik, ilerleyici hastalıkların başlangıç evrelerinde tespiti ve önlemler alınabilmesi için, serum albümin ve ÜA seviyesi gibi kolay ulaşılabilir, az maliyetli parametrelerdeki değişikliklerin erken dönemde tespiti, AH tanısı konulduktan sonra uygulanan tedavilerin hastalığı önleyici etkilerinin kısıtlılığı dikkate alındığında önem arz etmektedir.
