Prevalence of hyperhomocysteinemia during routine physical examination in Guangxi Province China and related risk factors

摘要

Studies on homocysteine (Hcy) have mainly focused on the correlation between the homocysteine concentration and disease development. Few epidemiological investigations have been performed. This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of hyperhomocysteinemia ( cy) during routine physical examination in Guangxi Province, China and the correlation of serum Hcy with gender, age, serum uric acid ( ), total cholesterol ( ), triglycerides ( ), high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol ( ‐C), low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol ( ‐C), and blood glucose ( ) to provide evidence for preventing and treating cy.
