The Association of Gout Flare Resolution With Physical Activity and Sleep: A Prospective Remote‐Monitoring Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to determine whether gout flare resolution is associated with physical activity and sleep. These findings were intended to inform the future development of a definition for flare resolution. Methods Data from 81 participants with gout who experienced at least one flare during a six‐month prospective observational study were ...
