Gout and hyperuricemia

P A Simkin. Curr Opin Rheumatol. 1997 May.

Abstract

Although there continue to be relatively few basic studies of the metabolism and transport of urate, clinical interest in gout and hyperuricemia remains high. A number of interesting new observations are described here from the published literature of the past year. Various aspects of the diagnosis, management, and pathophysiology of gout and gouty arthritis have been recently reviewed. The therapy of gout and hyperuricemia continue to lead to significant complications.
