Hyperuricemia is defined as an elevated serum uric acid level, usually greater than 6 mg/dL in women and 7 mg/dL in men. Elevated serum uric acid is present in an estimated 38 million Americans, and the incidence is increasing worldwide as developing countries adopt more Western diets and lifestyles. Most people with this condition will not have obvious clinical manifestations, however, it is unclear what the long-term effects of hyperuricemia are on overall cardiovascular health, renal function, and overall morbidity.[1] Hyperuricemia results from increased uric acid production, decreased excretion, or a combination of both processes.

The world’s undiagnosed Marfan patients often go through life unaware of the hidden killer lurking in their DNA – a gene variant which may lead to sudden death at any moment via an aortic dissection. Currently, there is no therapy available to counteract this disastrous aortic event, so patient awareness of their condition is key to prevention. To learn more about Marfan syndrome and improve diagnosis, our project needs patients to enroll online in our research cohort. In this way, patients can themselves help us contribute to new therapies and averting sudden deaths.
