The treatment of hyperuricemia [PDF]
Hyperuricemia has long been established as the major etiologic factor in gout. Alongside with an inflammatory state triggered by urate crystal deposition in the joints, hyperuricemia displayed additional pathophysiological consequences leading to tissue inflammation mainly in the vascular wall.

Recent epidemiologic studies have revealed a striking correlation between obesity and hyperuricemia (1,2). This propensity of the obese is accentuated by starvation2. Previous reports implicate a decrease in renal clearance of uric acid, but the mechanism of this decline has not been clarified(345).

Prolonged hyperuricemia is associated with the development of hypertension, renal arteriolosclerosis, glomerulosclerosis, and tubulointerstitial injury. It confers a greater risk than proteinuria for developing chronic renal disease and is associated with the development of hypertension.

Hyperuricemia in American Samoans [PDF]
AbstractThe mean serum uric acid of 71 normal adult American Samoan men was 6.8 mg%. Serum cholesterol, electrolytes, creatinine and total protein measurements were in the usual normal range and none correlated well with the serum urate. Like other Polynesian people, gout, obesity, diabetes and ischemic heart disease seem to be common among Samoans.

Hyperuricemia and Cardiovascular Disease
Purine metabolism in the circulatory system yields uric acid as its final oxidation product, which is believed to be linked to the development of gout and kidney stones. Hyperuricemia is closely correlated with cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, and chronic kidney disease, as attested by the epidemiological and empirical research.

SummaryFifteen normal male and 15 normal female subjects living permanently at a mining town located at an altitude of 14,000 ft in the central Andean plateau demonstrated elevations of the values of serum urate, creatinine, and hematocrit when compared with equal numbers of normal subjects living at sea level. Of the HA male group, three subjects (20%)

Update on gout and hyperuricemia
There have been recent advances in the understanding of underlying mechanisms and treatment of gout and chronic hyperuricemia, making this an important time to review the current state of the disease. The goal of this article is to provide a practical review of the current standard of care as well as discuss some new developments in the management ...
