Popis: Abstract The relationship between serum uric acid and lung function has been controversial. This study aims to determine whether there is an independent relationship between serum uric acid and lung function in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2007 to 2012. Serum uric acid was considered the exposure variable, and lung function (FEV1 and FVC) was the outcome variable. Multivariable linear regression was conducted with adjustments for potential confounders. The total number of participants from NHANES (2007–2012) was 30,442, of which 7514 were included in our analysis after applying exclusion criteria. We observed that serum uric acid was negatively associated with FEV1 and FVC after adjusting for confounders (β for FEV1 [− 24.77 (− 36.11, − 13.43)] and FVC [− 32.93 (− 47.42, − 18.45)]). Similarly, serum uric acid showed a negative correlation with FEV1 and FVC after adjusting for confounding variables both in male and female populations. The relationship between serum uric acid and FEV1 and FVC remained consistent and robust in various subgroups within both male and female populations, including age, race, BMI, alcohol consumption, smoking status, and income-poverty ratio. Serum uric acid is negatively associated with FEV1 and FVC in the US general healthy population. This negative relationship is significant in both the male and female populations.
