Association between saliva uric acid and plasma uric acid. Left panel: individual values and regression line of plasma uric acid over saliva uric acid in 15 controls and 35 CKD patients (open circles and closed circles, respectively). The insert reports equation and coefficients with 95%CI in CKD patients. The dotted grey line indicates the detection limit of the assay for saliva uric acid. Right panel: individual values of pre-dialysis values of plasma uric acid and saliva uric acid over post-dialysis values of plasma uric acid and saliva uric acid in 7 dialysis patients (pre-dialysis: closed squares; post-dialysis: open squares)
