Urate-lowering therapy for asymptomatic hyperuricaemia: A need for caution
The observed associations of hyperuricaemia with hypertension, cardiovascular disease and kidney disease are receiving increasing interest. The potential role of urate-lowering therapy in the management of these "non-gout diseases" has been raised, and in some countries it is already recommended.

Urate-lowering therapy for patients with gout on hemodialysis. [PDF]
AbstractObjectiveGout is the most common form of inflammatory arthritis and is caused by deposition of monosodium urate crystals resulting from a high burden of uric acid (UA). High UA burden also has been associated with increased morbidity and mortality in the general population and progression to chronic kidney disease.
