hypouricemia

Hypouricemia is a condition where the level of uric acid is below a certain threshold (between 2 mg/dL and 4 mg/dL, according to different sources.)

It is associated with several conditions, including:

* Hyperthyroidism
* Nephritis
* Fanconi syndrome
* Wilson's disease
* Myeloma

Half of the cases can be associated with drugs (allopurinol) and toxic agents. Uric acid clearence should also be performed, increase in clearence points to proximal tubular defects in the kidney, normal or reduced clearence points to a defect in xanthine oxidase.

It can also be associated with total parenteral nutrition. AJCN

A specific condition, Dalmatian hypouricemia, is known to have a genetic component. (OMIM 220150)

In one study, hypouricemia was found in 4.8% of hospitalized women and 6.5% of hospitalized men. (The definition was less than 0.14 mmol l-1 for women and less than 0.20 mmol l-1 in men.) PMID 8140400
