Current issues in the practical use of allopurinol in patients with gout and hyperuricemia
The cornerstone of the treatment of gout and hyperuricemia (HU) is the use of urate-lowering drugs, primarily xanthine oxidase inhibitors. Allopurinol, which has been used to treat gout for six decades, is the first line urate-lowering therapy (ULT ...

Objective 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 uric acid (FEUA) also modulates this response and relates to oxypurinol concentrations.

Blood Biomarkers and Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy for Gout: A Comprehensive Review
Schematic illustrating gout disease progression from asymptomatic hyperuricemia to chronic tophaceous disease, highlighting the limitations of conventional imaging and biochemical diagnostics and the potential of engineered SERS platforms for ultrasensitive blood‐based detection of urate‐related biomarkers across disease stages, with the color gradient

Battle of the strategies: diet versus drug therapy for gout
The best results in combating gout are achieved through a combination of diet and drug therapy. Urate-lowering therapy, which includes febuxostat, has been shown to be more effective and convenient than diet when it comes to achieving and maintaining ...

Uricases: reflections on recent developments in the management of challenging gout patients [PDF]
Oral urate-lowering therapy (ULT) is key to treating gout. However, many patients receiving oral ULT do not achieve the target serum urate (SU) levels, partly because some patients cannot tolerate or have contraindications to their use, mainly due to ...

Macrophage Extracellular Traps in Immunity and Cancer
As a macrophage‐mediated innate defense mechanism, the dysregulated release of METs drives chronic inflammation and influences tumor progression. Furthermore, METs exhibit a functional duality within the tumor microenvironment, capable of both promoting and suppressing tumor development.
