Abstract
Nowadays, obesity has become a serious problem world-wide. Obesity can cause the emergence of various kinds of diseases; one of them is hyperuricemia. This condition could found in obese adult as well as in obese adolescence. This study was aimed to obtain the serum uric acid level profile among high school students with overweight and obesity.
