Despite optimal treatments, prognosis in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains poor. Elevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels may predict worse outcomes in these patients. The objective was to assess the predictive value of SUA levels on mortality in ACS patients with CKD after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation.
