Filter by:Gout is secondary to urate crystal deposition after chronic elevation of serum urate level (SUL). Long-term lowering SUL below 360 µmol/L allows dissolution of deposited crystals and disease cure. There is currently a paradoxical observation: while urate-lowering therapy (ULT) is available and efficient there is an increase of gout prevalence and severity. The apparent failure of ULT in gout management is due to several causes including unadjusted dosage, no SUL verification, irregular follow-up and low treatment compliance. In contrast, a nurse-led treat-to-target (T2T) strategy with regular adaptations of ULT until reaching SUL target allows gout cure in more than 90% of patients. We hypothesize that an electronic messaging-led T2T strategy will allow obtaining similar results. The aim of this study is to demonstrate that email-led T2T strategy during ULT is superior to usual care.
This research study is studying an investigational drug called FCN-207 in healthy adult males or females.
Findings regarding the presence of xanthine oxidase and uric acid in different blood locations is important in preeclamptic women. We aim to detecting Xanthine oxidase and uric acid levels in both umbilical cord artery and vein as well as maternal blood (3 "locations") in pregnant women with and without diagnosis of preeclampsia. The study population will be divided into groups matching the three "locations" in order to describe and compare outcome levels.
This experiment evaluates the effect of Barley Green in patients with hyperuricemia ， and explores the effect of Barley Green on metabolic indexes such as uric acid, blood lipids, blood glucose, free fatty acids。130 adult participants , age 18 to 65 years, will be randomized into one of the two arms. Arm A (control group) will receive dietary guidance. Arm B will receive dietary guidance and Barley Green.
The current study primarily aimed to characterize the oxalate and uric acid metabolism in CKD patients and to analyze its association with renal survival prognosis. Secondarily, the study is planned to determine whether hyperoxalemia and hyperuricemia are independent risk factors for cardiovascular events and mortality.
The purpose of the study is to provide a more direct and objective basis for the widespread use of potassium sodium hydrogen citrate granules in the treatment of uric acid stones.
Under the premise of double-blind and non-interference clinical treatment, to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of probiotic Lactobacillus Zhang combined with routine treatment for gout hyperuricemia.
The objective of the study is to assess the pharmacodynamic properties of drug-drug of SHR4640 and Febuxostat interaction in patients with Hyperuricemia.
Hyperuricemia is a metabolic alteration defined as the presence of serum urate levels higher than 7 mg/dL. This has proven to be the maximum limit of solubility of urate in serum, any higher concentration leads to precipitation and eventually to the formation of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals. The accumulation of said crystals can manifest as gouty arthritis, uric acid nephropathy, urolithiasis or chronic tophaceous gout. A strong relation between hyperuricemia and other chronic degenerative diseases, including diabetes mellitus, systemic arterial hypertension, obesity and metabolic syndrome, has been consistently proven. Hypouricemic pharmacological agents have shown a decrease in cardiovascular complications and death in patients with gout. A series of studies conducted on individuals with asymptomatic hyperuricemia using musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) have shown the presence of morphostructural changes suggestive of MSU crystal deposits, combined with an elevation in a series of inflammation markers to a degree similar to those found in patients with chronic gout. Even though, there is evidence of morphostructural damage in individuals with asymptomatic hyperuricemia, there are no clinical, laboratorial or imaging parameters that indicate when hypouricemic treatment should be started. This clinical trial is proposed as a proof of concept which is looking to evaluate if treatment with allopurinol induces changes in levels of inflammatory markers in individuals with asymptomatic hyperuricemia and morphostructural changes suggestive of MSU crystal deposits. this proof of concept is not looking to measure the efficiency, effectiveness or security of the treatment. Our Hypothesis is that Individuals with asymptomatic hyperuricemia and morphostructural changes evidenced by MSUS (double contour sing, tophi, aggregates) will show a decent in inflammatory markers and their morphostructural changes will diminish or revert after treatment with allopurinol.
Adolescents and young adults with youth-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) are disproportionally impacted by hyperuricemia compared to non-diabetic peers and youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D). In fact, 50% of males with youth-onset T2D have serum uric acid (SUA) greater than 6.8 mg/dl. The investigators also recently demonstrated that higher SUA conferred greater odds of developing hypertension and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in youth with T2D over 7 years follow-up. Elevated SUA is thought to lead to cardiovascular disease (CVD) and DKD by inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction and deleterious effects on nephron mass. While there are studies demonstrating beneficial effects of uric acid (UA) lowering on vascular health in the general population, there are no studies in youth-onset T2D. Youth-onset T2D carries a greater risk of DKD and CVD compared to adult-onset T2D and T1D. Accordingly, a clinical trial evaluating UA lowering therapies is needed in youth-onset T2D. Krystexxa (pegloticase), a uricase, effectively lowers SUA and therefore holds promise as a novel therapy to impede the development of CVD and DKD in youth-onset T2D. This proposal describes a pilot and feasibility trial evaluating the effect of UA lowering by pegloticase on markers of CVD and DKD in ten (n=10) youth aged 18-25 with youth-onset T2D (diagnosed <21 years of age) over 7 days. The overarching hypothesis is that pegloticase improves marker of cardiorenal health by lowering UA.
