Hyperuricemia and Gout: Classification, Complications and Management

Boss, Gerry R., Seegmiller, J. Edwin·1979·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

RECENT progress in the understanding of purine metabolism and uric acid disposition suggests a need to revise the traditional classification of hyperuricemia and gout. A rational classification based on uric acid production would provide the foundations for further genetic investigation and for a sound approach to the treatment of patients with gout.Hyperuricemia is difficult to define. The serum urate concentration is not distributed normally in the population but is slightly skewed toward higher values. A functional and useful definition is based on the physicochemical saturation of serum with urate, which at 37°C is about 7.0 mg per 100 ml. . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
