简要总结
In patients with very high and high cardiovascular risk, the use of allopurinol will reduce cardiovascular risk, in the entire study population and in the group over 60 years of age.

- •Giving informed consent to participate in the study
- •Serum uric acid above 5mg/dl within the last 6 months for screening
- •At least one of the criteria for very high or high cardiovascular risk: a. calculated 10-year risk of death from cardiovascular causes according to SCORE2 >2.5% for patients <50 years of age or ≥5% for patients ≥50 years of age b. documented occurrence of cardiovascular diseases (cerebrovascular disease: ischemic stroke, intracerebral bleeding, TIA; heart failure regardless of the etiology NYHA I - II, peripheral arterial disease PAD, atrial fibrillation (de novo or ever in history) c. diabetes or hypertension complicated by organ damage: i. increase in vascular stiffness: pulse pressure ≥ 60 mmHg, and/or cervicofemoral pulse wave velocity > 10 m/s ii. features of left ventricular hypertrophy on echocardiography or electrocardiography iii. elevated albumin-creatinine ratio in the urine sample (30-300 mg/g) iv. ankle-brachial index < 0.9.

结局指标
主要结局
Occurrence of a major cardiovascular event (MACE) such as all cause death, cardiac death, stroke/TIA, acute coronary syndrome, coronary artery angioplasty or revascularization, peripheral arterial angioplasty, hospitalization for unstable angina, or worsening heart failure (hospitalization and stay in the emergency room / Hospital Emergency Department due to heart failure, the need for intravenous loop diuretic and/or doubling the dose of oral loop diuretic).
Occurrence of a major cardiovascular event (MACE) such as all cause death, cardiac death, stroke/TIA, acute coronary syndrome, coronary artery angioplasty or revascularization, peripheral arterial angioplasty, hospitalization for unstable angina, or worsening heart failure (hospitalization and stay in the emergency room / Hospital Emergency Department due to heart failure, the need for intravenous loop diuretic and/or doubling the dose of oral loop diuretic).
次要结局
- Individual MACE components alone or in combination
- Hospitalisation for reasons other than the primary endpoint.
- The assessment of the progression and/or development of organ complications and the development and/or progression of atherosclerosis including: echocardiography; the assessment of the incidence of atrial fibrillation in an electrocardiographic examination ; assessment of abdominal aorta diameter in uultrasound examination; the assessment of the intima-media complex and atherosclerotic plaques in the Doppler ultrasound of the carotid arteries; the assessment of the ankle-brachial index;
- The occurrence of long-COVID-19 symptoms.
- The assessment of treatment efficacy: the attainment of target serum uric acid levels of 5 mg/dL or 5.5 mg/dL depending on baseline values.
- The assessment of other laboratory parameters: estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), albumin-to-creatinine ratio, urinary albuminuria; HbA1c; lipid profile; plasma C reactive protein concentrations; activity of aspartate and alanine transaminases (AspAT, AlAT).
- The assessment of the frequency of side effects.
- The assessment of changes in participants’ CVs based on the Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE) 2 scale
