  1. Adjusted for age, BMI, type 2 diabetes, SSB intake (drinks/day), alcohol intake (drinks/week), eGFR, hypertension and prescription of lipid-lowering medication. The Polynesian data are also adjusted by number of self-reported Polynesian grandparents. The combined analysis was additionally adjusted by ancestral group. NU: normouricaemia; HU: hyperuricaemia; OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval; Tg: triglyceride; FPLC: fast protein liquid chromatography; VLDL: very low-density lipoprotein; apo B: apolipoprotein B; BMI, body mass index; SSB: sugar-sweetened beverage; eGRF: estimated glomerular filtration rate.
