The overlap between gout and psoriatic disease has been known since the 1980s. But what are the key mechanisms underlying this association, how does it influence management, and should "Psout" be considered a novel disease?
Thyroid disease is a common comorbidity in inflammatory rheumatic diseases and complicates disease management and treatment. Integrated strategies are crucial for optimizing outcomes.

Gout is a disease of hyperuricemia (HU) leading to monosodium urate crystal deposition in the joint, resulting in inflammation and joint damage. Recently, efforts have been made to characterize the intestinal microbiome of patients who suffer from …
Type 2 diabetes is commonly associated with elevated uric acid levels, which increase the risk of cardiovascular and renal complications and impair quality of life. SGLT-2 inhibitors lower blood glucose levels independently of insulin and may also …
Gout is an inflammatory form of arthritis caused by hyperuricemia, a condition in which uric acid levels in the body become excessively high. When this occurs, monosodium urate (MSU) crystals can accumulate in the joints, triggering intense pain …
Gout is a metabolic disease characterized by the deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals in various joints throughout the body, triggering local inflammatory responses and tissue destruction. Gout typically affects the peripheral joints …
Gout is a disease of hyperuricemia (HU) leading to monosodium urate crystal deposition in the joint, resulting in inflammation and joint damage. Recently, efforts have been made to characterize the intestinal microbiome of patients who suffer from …
Dual-energy CT (DECT) is widely used in both the clinical management of gout and in research, based on the ability of the technique to identify (and quantify) deposits of monosodium urate crystals (MSU). That identification revolves around the …
Gout is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by elevated serum urate (SU) levels, subsequent monosodium urate (MSU) crystal deposits, tophi, and gout flares [ 1 , 2 ]. SU remains above 6.0 mg/dL in patients who either have oral …
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are one of the most frequently prescribed drug classes, with approximately one-quarter of adults using them globally [ 1 ]. The most common indications for PPIs were gastroprotection for gastrointestinal irritant …
