Close linkage between serum uric acid and cardiac dysfunction in patients with ischemic heart disease according to covariance structure analysis

Abstract High serum uric acid (UA) level has been assumed to be a risk factor for left ventricular (LV) dysfunction; however, the precise relationship between these conditions has not been fully examined because many confounding factors are associated with UA level. We herein examined the precise re...
