ABSTRACT
Young adulthood is often a period of substantial weight gain increasing risk for obesity and cardiometabolic disease. Uric acid (UA), a clinical marker of oxidative stress, is associated with cardiometabolic dysfunction in established CVD, type 2 diabetes, and CKD. Yet, few trials have examined UA as a predictor of cardiometabolic risk in young, healthy populations, particularly in the context of weight gain prevention intervention. The purpose of this ancillary study was to examine UA in the Study of Novel Approaches to Weight Gain Prevention (SNAP), a randomized, controlled trial of weight gain prevention strategies in young healthy adults. UA was examined as a predictor of weight and cardiometabolic outcomes over 6 years; the impact of weight gain prevention interventions on UA was also examined. We found that higher baseline UA was a significant predictor of less favorable BMI, triglycerides, HDL, glucose, insulin, and HOMA, independent of age, sex, baseline weight, baseline level of the outcome variable, and weight gain prevention intervention. Additionally, ≥1% weight loss was associated with lower UA. UA is a promising biomarker for future weight gain and cardiometabolic risk in young adults that may respond to weight gain prevention.Clinical trial registration clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT01183689.
