The annual Scientific Meeting from the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and the Association of Rheumatology Health Professionals (ARHP) took place last week.
A lot of gout research was presented at the meeting, and I aim to review it over the next few weeks.
The following few posts are details of what was discussed. This is going to take a day or two to compile, as there is a lot of research presented at these meetings.
Once I’ve summarized all the sessions, I’ll start to review the results and prepare a proper analysis aimed at the layman.
Stayed tuned for lots of new gout information. Please let me know if anything interests you, and I will prioritize my review schedule accordingly. You can comment below, or in the gout forum.
