Serum uric acid and d-ROMs levels. The serum level of uric acid was significantly associated with d-ROMs level (p = 0.045) and the nonlinear effect of that on d-ROMs level was also significant (p = 0.171). Best fitted line and 95% CI results are shown by a solid line and gray band, respectively. Values for d-ROMs were adjusted according to the median values for age, gender, smoking habit, alcohol drinking habit, VFA, SBP, total cholesterol, HbA1c, eGFR, log HOMA-IR, log hs-CRP, and log plasma XOR activity. d-ROMs derivative of reactive oxygen metabolites, CI confidence interval, VFA visceral fat area, SBP systolic blood pressure, HbA1c glycated hemoglobin, eGFR estimated glomerular filtration rate, HOMA-IR homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance, hs-CRP high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, XOR xanthine oxidoreductase.
