| Abstract | Background: This study evaluated correlation between serum uric acid level with pulmonary hypertension and progress of pulmonary vascular disease in children with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) and Eisenmenger syndrome. Methods: This case-control study was performed on 75 patients with congenital heart disease, from Mar2001toApr2004that had referred to pediatric cardiology ward in Ali-Asghar hospital, Zahedan and then cardiac catheterization performed at Khatam Hospital. Among 75 patients ,25 cases suffered from Eisenmenger syndrome (group 1), 25 cases had pulmonary hypertension (group2) and25cases were in control with normal pulmonary artery pressure(group3).Then collected data were analyzed with SPSS and Chi-square, Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis and correlation tests and then results of three groups were compared to one another. Results: Mean age in Eisenmenger syndrome (group1) was 2.75+/-2.23years,in pulmonary hypertension (group2)3.52+/-3.76 and in control (group3)4.01+/-2.34 (P>0.05). There was no significant statistical difference between three groups regarding age and sex.(P>0.05)The mean pulmonary artery pressure was71.65+/-9.26 in group1,39.22+/-10.09 in group2 and 13.65+/-1.69 mmHg in group3.(P | en |
