Low urine pH affects the development of metabolic syndrome, associative with the increase of dyslipidemia and dysglycemia: Nationwide cross-sectional study (KNHANES 2013-2015) and a single-center retrospective cohort study.

Low UpH can be used as a surrogate marker of MetS and affects the development of MetS, associative with the increase of dyslipidemia and dysglycemia in those without MetS. If UpH is ≤5.0, efforts to prevent metabolic disorders are warranted.
