Abstract
The article presents current data on the effect of elevated uric acid levels on the course and prognosis of such significant diseases as acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The authors have convincingly shown that hyperuricemia (HY) is associated with higher mortality and a higher frequency of cardiovascular events after ACS, as well as significantly worsens the course of COPD. Thus, the level of uric acid can be considered as a marker for the prognosis of the course and risk of progression of these diseases, considering of its availability, is of interest for practical medicine.
