    Abstract:
    Hyperuricemia (HU) is a metabolic disorder caused by an increased production and/or decreased excretion of uric acid. The prevalence and incidence of HU in the world have steadily increased over the past 40 years. Therefore, the knowledge of the risk factors that trigger the disease is essential to reduce and prevent its incidence. The study focuses on genetic alterations as one of these risk factors, especially the urate transporter variants.
