Serum uric acid level negatively correlated with the prevalence of clopidogrel low response in patients undergoing antiplatelet treatment with aspirin and clopidogrel

Background and aims It has been reported that elevated serum uric acid (SUA) is related to inflammation and potentially to platelet hyper-reactivity. However, the relationship between elevated SUA and residual platelet reactivity is uncertain in patients on dual antiplatelet treatment (DAPT) with aspirin and clopidogrel. Methods and results A cross-sectional cohort study was conducted on 2569 patients undergoing DAPT with aspirin and...
