    The study examined the association between secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure and hyperuricemia (HUA) among Chinese youth aged 6–17.

  • 2

    The prevalence of HUA in the study population was found to be 20.5%, with 41% of participants exposed to SHS.

  • 3

    No exposure to SHS was identified as a protective factor against HUA, with an odds ratio of 0.811 compared to daily exposure.

  • 4

    Mediation analysis indicated that renal function, measured by eGFR, mediated 10.42% of the association between SHS and HUA.

  • 5

    The findings suggest stricter enforcement of smoking bans in public places to protect children and adolescents from SHS exposure.
