Serial change in sUA and eGFR before and after hypouricemic treatment. After initiation of hypouricemic treatment, mean sUA level decreased from 8.7 ± 0.9 to 5.7 ± 1.4 mg/dL in CKD stage 1-3a group, whereas from 8.8 ± 0.6 to 7.0 ± 0.9 mg/dL in CKD stage 3b-4 group. Mean eGFR level increased from 60.3 ± 16.1 to 62.6 ± 16.4 mL/min/1.73 m2 in CKD stage 1-3a group, whereas eGFR decreased from 29.1 ± 7.2 to 26.0 ± 10.0 mL/min/1.73 m2 in CKD stage 3b-4 group.
