The diets provided 22.7, 36.2 and 44.2 g of protein per day primarily from rice and pork. Daily 24-hr urine samples were analyzed for uric acid and other constituents. The amount of uric acid excreted per 24 hr increased as the protein intake increased; however, there was a significant difference in uric acid excretion only between the lowest and the highest protein intakes. With y as the level of uric acid excreted in mg/24 hr and x as the level of protein intake in g/day, the following regression line was obtained: y = 212.9 + 4.1 x.Mahidol UniversityAgricultural and Biological SciencesBiochemistry, Genetics and Molecular BiologyMedicineEffect of level of protein intake on urinary uric acid excretion and serum uric acidArticleSCOPUS
