Normal serum concentrations of uric acid among a Syrian population.
For the accurate interpretation of the effect of age on uric acid concentrations in a local Syrian population a reference value must be used. We found this to be 4.71 (+/- 2SD 2.22-7.19) and 5.16 (+/- 2SD 2.51-7.81) mg/100 ml for apparently normal healthy females and males respectively. No significant differences were found in serum uric acid levels between the age groups for females although for males of 30-40 years there was a significant rise in the concentration.
