The alcohol intake and drinking behaviour of 24 patients who presented with acute gout in a family practice over a 5-year period were compared with these features of a control population matched for sex, age, weight and use of hyperuricemia-inducing diuretics. The average weekly alcohol intake of the group with gout was twice that of the control group (p less than 0.02), and a statistically significant relation was found between alcohol abuse and acute gout (p less than 0.05). About half of the patients with gout drank excessively. Acute gout should be considered a possible clinical sign of alcohol abuse. 相似文献

This report describes a 75-year-old Caucasian man with extensive urate deposits and severe gouty arthropathy that confined him to a wheelchair. Since age 50, he suffered multiple acute gout flares and progressive deformities in his hands, feet, knees, and elbows (tophi). Serum creatinine was 1.4 mg/dL and serum urate 9.4 mg/dL. Conditions known to increase uric acid production (psoriasis, chronic bronchitis) and to decrease uric acid excretion (hypothyroidism, metabolic syndrome, and nephroangiosclerosis) may operate in a single patient, illustrating the dramatic clinical course of untreated gout. 相似文献

Gout is one of the most important diseases associated with hyperuricemia. Gout is characterized by acute monoarthritis with frequent flares. Some patients with gout have gouty tophi that are composed of monosodium urate crystals and inflammatory cells. In addition to tophi, gout is associated with various comorbidities such as obesity, hypertension, abnormal lipid metabolism, renal dysfunction, and urolithiasis. We examined the associations of the presence of tophi and comorbidities with demographic and disease characteristic data of gout patients. Subjects were 422 male patients with gout who visited our outpatient clinic. The patients' background data and laboratory data at the first visit were collected from patient records. We investigated the relationship between comorbidities and characteristics of patients using multiple regression models. The age of gout onset was 44 ± 13 years. The duration of gout at the first visit was 6 ± 8 years. Five percent of subjects had tophi. The presence of tophi was significantly associated with the duration of gout and maximum serum uric acid (SUA), indicating a close association of tophi with urate deposition. Reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate was associated with older age of onset, longer duration of gout, and higher levels of maximum SUA, indicating that sustained hyperuricemia relates with renal impairment of gout. Urolithiasis did not associate with gout duration and maximum SUA. The increased frequency of hypertension was associated with the duration of gout, suggesting that poor control of gout is one of the causes of hypertension. This study provides useful information for gout management and patient education. 相似文献

Objective To examine the relation between intake of sugar sweetened soft drinks and fructose and the risk of incident gout in men.Design Prospective cohort over 12 years.Setting Health professionals follow-up study.Participants 46 393 men with no history of gout at baseline who provided information on intake of soft drinks and fructose through validated food frequency questionnaires.Main outcome measure Incident cases of gout meeting the American College of Rheumatology survey criteria for gout.Results During the 12 years of follow-up 755 confirmed incident cases of gout were reported. Increasing intake of sugar sweetened soft drinks was associated with an increasing risk of gout. Compared with consumption of less than one serving of sugar sweetened soft drinks a month the multivariate relative risk of gout for 5-6 servings a week was 1.29 (95% confidence interval 1.00 to 1.68), for one serving a day was 1.45 (1.02 to 2.08), and for two or more servings a day was 1.85 (1.08 to 3.16; P for trend=0.002). Diet soft drinks were not associated with risk of gout (P for trend=0.99). The multivariate relative risk of gout according to increasing fifths of fructose intake were 1.00, 1.29, 1.41, 1.84, and 2.02 (1.49 to 2.75; P for trend <0.001). Other major contributors to fructose intake such as total fruit juice or fructose rich fruits (apples and oranges) were also associated with a higher risk of gout (P values for trend <0.05).Conclusions Prospective data suggest that consumption of sugar sweetened soft drinks and fructose is strongly associated with an increased risk of gout in men. Furthermore, fructose rich fruits and fruit juices may also increase the risk. Diet soft drinks were not associated with the risk of gout. 相似文献

IntroductionUric acid was proposed to have anti-oxidant property and possible neuroprotective effects. We examined the association between gout and dementia with population database.MethodsThe study utilized the claims data from the nationwide representative sample of Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD). We ascertained patients with gout and dementia covering vascular and non-vascular (including Alzheimer’s) subtypes using International Classification of Diseases Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD9-CM) codes. A control group matched on sex, age, and index date of gout patients was randomly sampled with a ratio of 1:4 from the same database for comparison.ResultsFrom 2002 to 2008, 28,769 gout patients who were older than 50 years old were identified, and 114,742 control patients was matched into the study. During follow-up, 7,119 patients developed dementia (1,214 with gout, and 5,905 without gout). After adjusting for age, sex, and relevant comorbidities, a Cox regression analysis showed that gout patients had a lower risk of developing non-vascular dementia (hazard ratio (HR): 0.77; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.72 - 0.83; p < 0.001) and vascular dementia (HR: 0.76; 95% CI: 0.65 - 0.88; p < 0.001).ConclusionsPatients with gout have a lower risk of developing dementia. This phenomenon exists for both non-vascular and vascular types of dementia. 相似文献

Introduction
We explored the risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) among gout patients in a representative cohort in Taiwan.Methods
The primary database used was the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. Subjects older than 20 years without ESRD, coronary heart disease, or stroke were included in the study. The case definition of gout in the present study was gout diagnosis and medical treatment for gout. An ESRD case was defined by the presence of chronic renal failure necessitating long-term renal replacement therapy. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the risk of ESRD among gout patients.Results
The analysis included data of 656,108 patients who were followed up for a mean of 8.0 years. Among them, 19,963 (3.0%) patients had gout. At the end of 2008, 2,377 individuals (gout, n = 276; non-gout, n = 2,101) had ESRD, and 861 individuals (gout, n = 77, 27.9%; non-gout, n = 521, 24.8%) died due to ESRD. The rates of incidence of ESRD were 1.73 and 0.41 cases per 1,000 patient-years in the gout and non-gout groups. After adjustment for age, sex, and history of diabetes mellitus and/or hypertension, gout was associated with a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.57 for ESRD (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.38-1.79; P < 0.001). In patients with ESRD, the adjusted HR for death in patients with gout was 0.95 (0.74-1.23, P = 0.71), which was similar to the HR obtained in patients without gout.Conclusions
Gout is associated with an increased hazard for development of ESRD. 相似文献9.
It has been hypothesized that the association between hypertension and gout is bidirectional, however, few studies have examined this in a prospective cohort. We analyzed data from the Singapore Chinese Health Study (SCHS) follow-up I (1999–2004) and II (2006–2010) interviews, when both physician-diagnosed hypertension and gout were self-reported. We included participants with data for both follow-up interviews and who were free of heart disease, stroke and cancer at follow-up I. The analysis of hypertension and risk of gout included 31,137 participants when prevalent gout cases were excluded, while the analysis of gout and risk of hypertension included 20,369 participants when prevalent hypertension cases were excluded. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The mean age at follow-up I was 60.1 (SD 7.3) years, and the average follow-up was 6.8 (SD 1.4) years. In the analysis of hypertension and risk of gout, 682 incident cases were identified. Compared to normotensive participants, hypertensive patients had an88% increased risk of developing gout (HR 1.88; 95% CI 1.61–2.21). In the parallel analysis, 5,450 participants reported to have newly diagnosed hypertension during follow-up. Compared to participants without gout, those with gout had an18% increased risk of developing hypertension (HR 1.18; 95% CI 1.02–1.37). The bidirectional association was stronger in normal weight adults compared to overweight/obese individuals (P
interaction = 0.06 and 0.04, respectively). The hypertension to gout association was stronger in women compared to men (P
interaction = 0.04), while the gout to hypertension association was evident in women but not in men (P
interaction = 0.02). In conclusion, our results suggest that the hypertension-gout association is bidirectional in this cohort of Singapore Chinese adults. The potential interactions of the bidirectional association with obesity and sex deserve further investigations. 相似文献

In this article, a complete history of Charlemagne’s mortal remains is outlined, including the first publication reporting on the most recent tomb opening in 1988. Besides exclusive bioarchaeological details – namely that his body was indeed mummified - a full clinical interpretation of the Emperor’s final illnesses and death is given: a likely combination of osteoarthritis, gout and a recurrent fever caused by an infectious disease. 相似文献

Monosodium urate crystals stimulate monocytes and macrophages to release IL-1β through the NALP3 component of the inflammasome.
The effectiveness of IL-1 inhibition in hereditary autoinflammatory syndromes with mutations in the NALP3 protein suggested
that IL-1 inhibition might also be effective in relieving the inflammatory manifestations of acute gout. The effectiveness
of IL-1 inhibition was first evaluated in a mouse model of monosodium urate crystal-induced inflammation. IL-1 inhibition
prevented peritoneal neutrophil accumulation but TNF blockade had no effect. Based on these findings, we performed a pilot,
open-labeled study (trial registration number ISRCTN10862635) in 10 patients with gout who could not tolerate or had failed
standard antiinflammatory therapies. All patients received 100 mg anakinra daily for 3 days. All 10 patients with acute gout
responded rapidly to anakinra. No adverse effects were observed. IL-1 blockade appears to be an effective therapy for acute
gouty arthritis. The clinical findings need to be confirmed in a controlled study. 相似文献

Gut dysbiosis is suggested to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of gout. The aim of our study was to identify the characteristic dysbiosis of the gut microbiota in gout patients and the impact of a commonly used uric acid-lowering treatment, febuxostat on gut microbiota in gout. 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing and metagenomic shotgun sequencing was performed on fecal DNA isolated from 38 untreated gout patients, 38 gout patients treated with febuxostat, and 26 healthy controls. A restriction of gut microbiota biodiversity was detected in the untreated gout patients, and the alteration was partly restored by febuxostat. Biochemical metabolic indexes involved in liver and kidney metabolism were significantly associated with the gut microbiota composition in gout patients. Functional analysis revealed that the gut microbiome of gout patients had an enriched function on carbohydrate metabolism but a lower potential for purine metabolism, which was comparatively enhanced in the febuxostat treated gout patients. A classification microbial model obtained a high mean area under the curve up to 0.973. Therefore, gut dysbiosis characterizings gout could potentially serve as a noninvasive diagnostic tool for gout and may be a promising target of future preventive interventions. 相似文献

First identified by the Egyptians in 2640 BC, podagra (acute gout occurring in the first metatarsophalangeal joint) was later recognized by Hippocrates in the fifth century BC, who referred to it as 'the unwalkable disease'. The term is derived from the Latin word gutta (or 'drop'), and referred to the prevailing medieval belief that an excess of one of the four 'humors'--which in equilibrium were thought to maintain health--would, under certain circumstances, 'drop' or flow into a joint, causing pain and inflammation. Throughout history, gout has been associated with rich foods and excessive alcohol consumption. Because it is clearly associated with a lifestyle that, at least in the past, could only be afforded by the affluent, gout has been referred to as the 'disease of kings'. Although there is evidence that colchicine, an alkaloid derived from the autumn crocus (Colchicum autumnale), was used as a powerful purgative in ancient Greece more than 2000 years ago, its first use as a selective and specific treatment for gout is attributed to the Byzantine Christian physician Alexander of Tralles in the sixth century AD. Uricosuric agents were first used at the end of the 19th century. In the modern era, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are usually the drugs of choice for treating acute gout. Perhaps the most important historical advance in the treatment of hyperuricemia was the development of xanthine oxidase inhibitors, which are effective in reducing plasma and urinary urate levels and have been shown to reverse the development of tophaceous deposits. 相似文献

IntroductionGout is a chronic inflammatory disease the development of which is associated with obesity-induced metabolic abnormalities. However, a substantial number of non-obese patients (body mass index [BMI] <25 kg/m2) also develop gout in Korea. It was suggested that accumulation of visceral fat rather than subcutaneous fat is associated with metabolic abnormalities and hyperuricemia in patients with gout; therefore, we hypothesized that visceral fat accumulation was increased in non-obese gout patients.MethodsOne hundred and three male patients with primary gout and 204 age-matched healthy controls who attended a health check-up examination were recruited after the review of medical charts. The visceral fat area (VFA) was measured using the bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) method, and a VFA >100 cm2 was defined as visceral fat obesity (VFO). The frequency of VFO was compared in patients and control groups. The frequencies of metabolic syndrome and related parameters were also investigated.ResultsBMI, waist circumference, total fat mass, serum triglycerides, and serum glucose levels were significantly greater in patients compared with controls. VFA and the prevalence of VFO was increased in gout patients compared with controls. There were positive correlations between VFA and serum triglyceride levels and serum glucose levels. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that VFO is an independent risk factor for gout (odds ratio 2.488, 95% confidence interval 1.041–4.435). In non-obese subgroup analyses (gout patients, n = 38; healthy controls, n = 150), VFA (98.7 ± 19.3 vs. 91.0 ± 16.7, P = 0.016) and the frequency of VFO (47.4 vs. 27.3%, P = 0.017) remained significantly higher in gout patients. There was no difference in either BMI or total fat mass between patients and controls in the non-obese subgroup. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with gout was 31.7% (33/104), compared with 13.2% (5/38) in the non-obese subgroup according to modified ATP III criteria.ConclusionVFO, measured using BIA, is observed more frequently in patients with primary gout compared with healthy controls, even in non-obese individuals. Therefore, VFO might more properly represent metabolic derangements in patients with gout than general obesity. 相似文献

Summary Genomic hybridization analysis has been used to investigate allelic frequencies of the genes coding for the four major apoproteins of high density lipoprotein (HDL); apoproteins AI, AII, CII and CIII, in a group of Caucasian subjects with primary gout. An uncommon allelic variant of the apoprotein CIII gene (the S2 allele) was significantly more common among the patients with gout (9/48, 19%) than among normouricaemic controls who were either randomly selected (1/41, 2%, P=0.03) or normotriglyceidaemic (0/33, 0%, P=0.013). Approximately 46% (22/48) of the subjects with gout were hypertriglyceridaemic (with a serum triglyceride >2.1 mmol/l). Of the 22 patients in this subgroup, 5 (23%) had the uncommon S1S2 genotype, which was also a significantly greater proportion than among the normotriglyceridaemic controls (P=0.015). These data suggest that the hypertriglyceridaemia associated with primary gout may have a genetic basis. In contrast, we found no differences in the frequencies of restriction fragment length polymorphisms of the genes for apoproteins AI, AII and CII. 相似文献

The ATP-binding cassette, subfamily G, member 2 gene ABCG2/BCRP locates in a gout-susceptibility locus (MIM 138900) on chromosome 4q. Recent genome-wide association studies also showed that the ABCG2 gene relates to serum uric acid levels and gout. Since ABCG2 is also known as a transporter of nucleotide analogs that are structurally similar to urate, and is an exporter that has common polymorphic reduced functionality variants, ABCG2 could be a urate secretion transporter and a gene causing gout. To find candidate mutations in ABCG2, we performed a mutation analysis of the ABCG2 gene in 90 Japanese patients with hyperuricemia and found six non-synonymous mutations. Among the variants, ATP-dependent urate transport was reduced or eliminated in five variants, and two out of the five variants (Q126X and Q141K) were frequently detected in patients. Haplotype frequency analysis revealed that there is no simultaneous presence of Q126X and Q141K in one haplotype. As Q126X and Q141K are a nonfunctional and half-functional haplotype, respectively, their genotype combinations are divided into four estimated functional groups. The association study with 161 male gout patients and 865 male controls showed that all of those who had dysfunctional ABCG2 had an increased risk of gout, and that a remarkable risk was observed in those with ≤1/4 function (OR, 25.8; 95% CI, 10.3-64.6; p = 3.39 × 10(-21)). In 2,150 Japanese individuals, the frequency of those with dysfunctional ABCG2 was more than 50%. Our function-based clinicogenetic analysis identified the combinations of dysfunctional variants of ABCG2 as a major contributing factor in Japanese patients with gout. 相似文献

痛风是一种嘌呤代谢紊乱导致的炎症性疾病,表现为尿酸升高、阵发性关节肿痛、痛风结石形成和关节畸形等,严重影响患者的工作及生活质量。随着生活方式的改变,痛风的患病率不断升高。嘌呤代谢障碍和炎症通路异常在痛风的发病机制中起主要作用。研究表明痛风会引起肠道菌群的改变,肠道菌群不仅能够影响嘌呤代谢或调节炎症,还能够影响药物对痛风的治疗效果。因此本综述从肠道菌群调节嘌呤代谢、炎症反应及药物作用等方面,分析肠道菌群在痛风发病及治疗中的作用及功能,有助于阐明痛风与肠道菌群的相关性,为更好地诊治痛风提供新思路。
