Phosphorus modifies the association between body mass index and uric acid: Results from NHANES 2007–2018
Our results indicate significant associations between BMI and uric acid in women, with higher BMI values likely to be associated with a higher risk of hyperuricemia, suggesting that uric acid levels in obese people should be closely monitored in clinical practice. Phosphorus and BMI have an interactive effect in elevating UA and should be noted as indicators of phosphorus in clinical practice.
