1Objective: The level of serum urate is generally elevated in postmenopausal individuals.
2During a Malaria infection, urate levels increase to stimulates an immune response.
3Both allopurinol and urate oxidase are effective in reducing serum uric acid.
4There is no evidence on better drug of choice among different urate oxidases.
5Background: Elevated serum urate levels are associated with progression of chronic kidney disease.
6The specific transporter(s) responsible for the urate uptake remains to be determined.
7Methods: Acute urate crystal inflammation was obtained by subcutaneous injections of MSU crystals in mice.
8This is calcium urate (not sodium urate as is generally stated).
9Background: Elevated serum urate levels can lead to gout and are associated with cardiovascular risk factors.
10Accordingly, we investigated factors related to increased serum urate levels in addition to lack of estrogen.
11Functional studies were conducted using (14)C-urate transport assays in mammalian Chinese hamster ovary cells.
12Among those with gout, we assessed the risk of venous thromboembolism by exposure to urate-lowering therapy.
13Biochemical findings included elevated lactate, urate and lipids.
14Serum urate concentrations are highly heritable and elevated serum urate is a key risk factor for gout.
15I look for urate of ammonia, that constantly recurring product of the various stages of the metamorphoses.
16Univariate and multivariate association between clinical features and monosodium urate-defined gout was determined using logistic regression modeling.
