Response to allopurinol and febuxostat according to the fractional excretion of urate in men with gout [PDF]
Background Body mass index (BMI), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and pretreatment urate levels have been reported to influence the urate‐lowering response to allopurinol. We investigated whether the fractional excretion of urate (FEUA) also modulates this response and relates to oxypurinol concentrations. We further evaluated its potential influence

Allopurinol Versus Febuxostat Use and the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in People With Chronic Kidney Disease: A New-User Active Comparator Cohort Study. [PDF]
This retrospective cohort study assessed the cardiovascular outcomes in people with chronic kidney disease who were newly prescribed allopurinol or febuxostat. ABSTRACT Aim Hyperuricaemia, a common comorbidity among people with chronic kidney disease, is widely treated with uric acid‐lowering agents such as allopurinol and febuxostat.

Febuxostat ameliorates secondary progressive experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by restoring mitochondrial energy production in a GOT2-dependent manner. [PDF]
Oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction are important determinants of neurodegeneration in secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS). We previously showed that febuxostat, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, ameliorated both relapsing-remitting ...

The Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitor Febuxostat Suppresses Adipogenesis and Activates Nrf2
Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) is a rate-limiting enzyme in purine catabolism that acts as a novel regulator of adipogenesis. In pathological states, xanthine oxidoreductase activity increases to produce excess reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Impact of urate-lowering therapy on quality of life indicators in patients with gout
Gout can have a significant impact on the quality of life (QoL) of patients.Objective: to assess the dynamics of QoL indicators and the possibility of achieving the target level of uric acid (UA) in patients with gout on febuxostat therapy, with ...

Renal safety and urate-lowering efficacy of febuxostat in gout patients with stage 4–5 chronic kidney disease not yet on dialysis [PDF]
Background/Aims The safety and efficacy of febuxostat in patients with stage 4–5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) are still unclear owing to a lack of studies in these patients.
