The growing problem of gout is beginning to raise questions about how we can effectively prevent this disease. This work examines the effect of urate-lowering therapy on preventing the onset of a first episode of gout—an effect that is not entirely clear, despite the fact that such therapy is an es...

description The growing problem of gout is beginning to raise questions about how we can effectively prevent this disease. This work examines the effect of urate-lowering therapy on preventing the onset of a first episode of gout—an effect that is not entirely clear, despite the fact that such therapy is an essential tool for controlling gout flares. A growing database allows us to analyze the impact of hyperuricemia, which has so far been presumed to be a major contributor to the development of gout, and assess its actual impact on the development of the disease.
