Dr. James Lin answered

Usually, not ...: The presence of urate crystals in urinalysis usually means nothing important for average healthy persons, reflecting the degree of dehydration, the absorption and metabolism of purine which may vary and be affected by drugs, diets, diseases like diabetes, kidney failure, obesity, etc. In sum, it is commonly seen in urinalysis and usually not meaningful.
