abstract="Asymptomatic hyperuricaemia has become a topic of interest for cardiologists in recent years. Uric acid, previously identified mainly with gout and some oncological diseases, has proven to be an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. A number of studies indicate that asymptomatic hyperuricaemia is also an independent risk factor for cardiovascular death. Experts now agree that the determination of uric acid should be routine laboratory testing in the majority of our patients. The existing norms for uric acid concentration also need to be verified. In patients with concomitant hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidaemia, or chronic kidney disease a level of uric acid exceeding5 mg/dl should be considered abnormal.",
