Abstract

Gout is the most common form of inflammatory arthropathy, and is associated with excruciating pain, major impairment of quality of life, and increased risk of comorbidities and mortality. Although gout has somehow been neglected by researchers and clinicians in the past, in more recent times there has been a renewed interest in this disease, which has led to major improvements in its management. This article reviews the new clinical and experimental evidence about gout that emerged in 2017 and in the first half of 2018.
