Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Serum uric acid has a positive correlation with essential hypertension. Higher grade of hypertension is associated with higher serum uric acid levels.Timepoint: serum uric acid levels will be assesed at the end of 1 YEAR in essential hypertensives and compared with controls.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Serum uric acid of essentail hypertensives will be compared with that of age and sex matched controls.Timepoint: At 1 month intervals till 1 year.
