It seriously affects patients' lives and brings huge burdens to their families. Ischemic stroke accounts for most of the stroke cases. In the absence of any effective treatment, prevention measures through controlling the risk factors for ischemic stroke become crucial. While uric acid has been reported as an essential risk factor for ischemic stroke, researchers hold inconsistent views regarding the specific association between uric acid and ischemic stroke. By summarizing the association between uric acid levels and ischemic stroke, this article can guide researchers to quickly and comprehensively understand the relationship between uric acid and ischemic stroke and develop further studies for its exploration.
