BACKGROUND The renal tubule is a major route of clearance of uric acid, a product of purine metabolism. The links between reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR), hyperuricemia, and gout in the general population are not well understood. The objective of the present study was to estimate prevalence of gout and hyperuricemia among people with impaired GFR in the US general population. STUDY D...
BACKGROUND Limited prospective information exists on the relation between obesity and weight change and the risk of gout. Similarly, both hypertension and diuretic use have been considered risk factors for gout; however, their independent contributions have not been established prospectively. METHODS We prospectively examined over a 12-year period (1986-1998) the relation between adiposity, w...
INTRODUCTION Gout is the most common inflammatory arthritis worldwide and is the only type of chronic arthritis that potentially can be 'cured'. However, data on gout incidence, prevalence and management, assessed at multiple time points in the same population, are sparse, particularly in Asian populations. The aim of this study was to describe trends in the epidemiology of gout in the general ...
OBJECTIVES The functional impact of gout is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to determine predictors of hand function in gout. METHODS Twenty unselected patients with gout were recruited from rheumatology clinics. No patient had an acute gout flare at assessment. Participants were assessed for clinical characteristics of gout, including the site and number of tophi. Hand function ...
Gout is an acute and chronic inflammatory disorder associated with high morbidity and impaired quality of life. There has been a substantial increase in the prevalence and incidence of gout in recent years. Novel diagnostic and therapeutic options have provided new insights into the pathogenesis and management of hyperuricemia and gout in the last decade. This clinical review aims to summarize ...
Hyperuricemia and gout are two of the most common metabolic diseases in industrial countries. The exacerbated forms of uricemia are the acute gout attack and chronic gout. They are caused by the incorporation of crystalloid salts of uric acid (urate) into the joints. In the following article, we will present all relevant facts concerning gout. This way, you are perfectly prepared for all exams ...
Introduction. Tophaceous gout of the patella is rare and may masquerade as a tumour or tumour-like condition. Cases. We report two patients with gout involving the patella, one complicated by a pathological fracture and the other occurring in a bipartite patella in a young adult. Discussion. Typical imaging appearances and measurement of serum urate will usually confirm the diagnosis but, occas...
A family study was performed to determine whether the hypertriglyceridaemia associated with gout is present in families of gout patients or simply due to their life-style. The study revealed hypertriglyceridaemia in gout patients, reflected by hyperprebetalipoproteinaemia and with reciprocal reduction in the proportion of beta-lipoprotein. These abnormalities were not seen in first-degree relat...
Objective To prospectively examine the relation between the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) and Western diets and risk of gout (ie, the clinical endpoint of hyperuricemia) in men.Design Prospective cohort study.Setting The Health Professionals Follow-up Study.Participants 44 444 men with no history of gout at baseline. Using validated food frequency questionnaires, each participa...
OBJECTIVE Illness perceptions are key determinants of behavior directed at managing disease. Although suboptimal disease management has been reported in patients with gout, patients' perceptions of illness have not been systematically studied. The aim of this study was to examine illness perceptions in patients with gout. METHODS A total of 142 patients with gout for <10 years were recruited ...
