Gout is the most prevalent form of inflammatory arthritis, with a strong impact on individual health and healthcare systems. This article reviews clinical and experimental evidences about gout emerged throughout the 2019. Starting with an epidemiological analysis, the review explores new insights on genetic factors influencing the development of gout flare, pathogenetic mechanisms, risk factors for the disease and comorbidities. An overview on pharmacological therapies and recent knowledge on the impact of lifestyle and dietary habits are also included. Finally, the review contains a novel section on animal models, which reflects the renewed interest of researchers in the acute process triggered by monosodium urate crystals.

Abstract
Gout is the most prevalent form of inflammatory arthritis, with a strong impact on individual health and healthcare systems. This article reviews clinical and experimental evidences about gout emerged throughout the 2019. Starting with an epidemiological analysis, the review explores new insights on genetic factors influencing the development of gout flare, pathogenetic mechanisms, risk factors for the disease and comorbidities. An overview on pharmacological therapies and recent knowledge on the impact of lifestyle and dietary habits are also included. Finally, the review contains a novel section on animal models, which reflects the renewed interest of researchers in the acute process triggered by monosodium urate crystals.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
