Abstract
This study aimed to gather the best evidence on the relationship between dietary factors and hyperuricaemia and gout. We searched databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Web of Science from database creation to July 2023. Meta-analysis showed that consumption of alcohol (OR: 1.41, 95% CI: 1.29-1.55; 1.60, 95% CI: 1.33-1.93, respectively), red meat (OR:1.27, 95% CI: 1.18-1.37; 1.32, 95% CI: 1.18-1.47, respectively), fructose (OR: 1.29, 95% CI: 1.21-1.38; 1.65, 95% CI: 1.36-2.01, respectively) and seafoods (OR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.20-1.64; 1.29, 95% CI: 1.00-1.67, respectively) were positively associated with the risk of hyperuricaemia and gout, while vegetables (OR: 0.78, 95% CI: 0.71-0.85; 0.96,95% CI 0.74-1.24, respectively) were inversely associated. Dairy products (OR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.61-0.78) and nuts (OR: 0.75, 95% CI: 0.60-0.93) were also inversely associated with the risk of hyperuricaemia. Soy products (OR: 0.86, 95% CI: 0.75-0.98) and coffee (OR: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.39-0.81) were negatively associated with the risk of gout.
