Herein, we aimed to investigate the association of both baseline and dynamic change in SUA with the risk of hypertension developing from prehypertension. The study enrolled 11,488 participants with prehypertension during 2006-2010 from the Kailuan study. Change in SUA was assessed as % change of SUA from 2006 (baseline) to 2010. Participants were categorized into four groups by quartiles of baseline and change in SUA, separately. Multivariable logistic regressions were used to calculation the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). During a median follow-up of 7.06 years, 2716 (23.64%) participants developed hypertension from prehypertension. In the multivariable-adjusted model, the OR for hypertension comparing participants in the highest versus the lowest quartile of baseline SUA were 1.18 (95% CI, 1.02-1.36). Increased SUA over time was also associated with elevated risk of hypertension (OR in the highest quartile was 1.41 [95% CI, 1.23-1.62] versus the lowest quartile), especially in those with baseline SUA ≥ median (OR, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.21-1.81). Moreover, the addition of SUA to a conventional risk model had an incremental effect on the predictive value for hypertension (integrated discrimination improvement 0.30%, P less then 0.0001; category-free net reclassification improvement 12.36%, P less then 0.0001). Both high initial SUA and increased SUA over time can independently predict the progression from prehypertension to hypertension. Strategies aiming at controlling SUA level in prehypertensive subjects may impede the onset of hypertension.Flaxseed oil is an excellent source of alpha-linolenic acid ALA known for its antihypertensive action. Flaxseed oil is unstable and its dose is not achievable in our conventional diet hence blending of natural flaxseed oil with palm oil, containing
