    The early manifestations of gout patients are first of all the asymptomatic period, when the patient only finds that uric acid is significantly elevated during physical examination or occasional blood examination, which is called the asymptomatic period; Patients in the asymptomatic phase develop gout, which takes a certain amount of time and is related to genetics and uric acid levels. If the patient's uric acid level is significantly increased, the rate of uric acid crystallization will be very fast, so gout will occur when the crystallization reaches a certain volume.

    In addition, the early manifestations of gout are symptoms of joint discomfort, such as awkward joints, or a feeling like a broken foot, and sometimes an acute onset of pain. Therefore, the early manifestations of gout need to pay attention to the laboratory value of uric acid, if the uric acid is very high, it needs to be actively treated to delay the occurrence of gout.

    Acute gouty arthritis can be triggered by acute gout arthritis without any aura, mild trauma, overeating of high-purine foods or excessive alcohol consumption, surgery, fatigue, emotional stress, and medical emergencies (such as infection, vascular blockage) can induce acute attacks of gout, acute monoarticular or polyarticular pain that often occurs at night is usually the first symptom, the pain is progressively aggravated, severe pain, and the signs are similar to acute infection, swelling, local fever, red and obvious tenderness, etc., local ** tension, fever, shiny, dark red or purple-red appearance, Metatarsophalangeal joint involvement of the big toe is the most common (foot gout), as are the arches, ankles, knees, wrists, and elbows, and systemic manifestations include fever, palpitations, chills, malaise, and leukocytosis.

    The first few episodes usually involve only one joint, usually only for a few days, but later can invade multiple joints at the same time or successively, if it is not ** can last for several weeks, and finally local symptoms and signs subside, joint function is restored, the length of the asymptomatic interval varies greatly, as the disease progresses shorter and shorter, if not prevented, several attacks per year, chronic joint symptoms appear, and permanent destructive joint deformities occur, the joints of the hands and feet are often limited in movement, in a few cases, sacroiliac, Joints such as sternoclavicular or cervical spine can also be affected, urate deposits are common in the mucus sac wall and tendon sheath, enlarged tophi can appear in the hands and feet and discharge chalky urate crystal fragments, and gout caused by cyclosporine mostly occurs in ** large joints, such as hip and sacroiliac joints, and can also be seen in the hands, and even destroys the renal tubules.

    1. Asymptomatic period.

    Serum urate concentration increases with age and there are gender differences, and this stage is mainly manifested by a persistent or fluctuating increase in blood uric acid, from the increase in blood uric acid to the onset of symptoms for several years to decades, and only when arthritis occurs is called gout.

    2. Acute arthritis attack.

    It is the most common first symptom of primary gout, which is more common in the joints of the lower limbs, with the hallux and the first metatarsophalangeal joint as the most common, the initial onset is monoarticular inflammation, and the affected joints are increased, and the onset of gout indicates that the blood uric acid concentration is supersaturated for a long time, resulting in the deposition of a large amount of urate in the tissue.

    3. Intermittent period.

    Gout attacks last for a few days to a few weeks and can be relieved naturally, leaving no sequelae and completely recovering, and then there is an asymptomatic phase, called the acute attack intermittent period, after which it can recur, about 60% of patients within 1 year**, and the intermittent period is also as long as more than 10 years.

    4. Tophi.

    And chronic arthritis stage of patients who have not ** or ** poor, urate crystals are deposited in cartilage, tendons, bursal fluid and soft tissues, tophi is a common manifestation in this period, often occurs in the ear wheel, extensor side of the forearm, metatarsophalanges, fingers, elbows, etc., urate deposition increases in the joint, inflammation reverses into the chronic stage and can not disappear completely, causing joint bone erosion defects and fibrosis of surrounding tissues, making joints stiff and deformed, limited activities, with the reversal of inflammation, the lesions are getting more and more aggravated, Seriously affect joint function, early prevention and treatment of hyperuricemia, patients may not have the manifestations of this stage.

    Gout (gout) is a disease caused by purine metabolism disorders, the incidence rate in China was low in the past, with the improvement of people's living standards, gout has become a common disease and frequent disease in recent years. A set of authoritative survey data is shocking, in the past two or three years, the number of gout patients in China has more than doubled, of which 95% are men, and it has been clinically found that gout patients in China have a trend of younger development, which has aroused a high degree of vigilance and attention in the medical community.

    Early symptoms. 1) Acute arthritis occurs more than 1 time per month;

    2) Inflammation back-check peaked within 1 day;

    3) acute monoarthritis attacks;

    4) Diseased joints can be seen** dark red;

    5) pain or swelling of the first metatarsophalangeal joint;

    6) the onset of single-bond arthritis, involving the first metatarsophalangeal joint;

    7) Single-bond arthritis attacks, involving the tarsal joints;

    8) Have suspicious gouty nodules;

    9) hyperuricemia;

    10) X-ray examination shows asymmetrical intra-articular swelling;

    11) X-ray examination showing submyclonial cyst without erosion;

    12) Negative microbial culture of synovial fluid during arthritis attacks.

    1) Nucleic acids and other purine compounds produced by protein catabolism in human cells are generated by the action of some enzymes to produce endogenous uric acid.

    2) The purine compounds, nucleic acids and nuclear proteins contained in food are digested and absorbed, and exogenous uric acid is formed by the action of some enzymes.

    The production of uric acid is a complex process that requires the involvement of some enzymes. These enzymes can be broadly divided into two categories: enzymes that promote uric acid synthesis, mainly 5-phosphonucleic acid-1-pyrophosphate synthase, adenine phosphonucleotidyl transferase, phosphoribose pyrophosphate amide transferase, and xanthine oxidase; Enzymes that inhibit uric acid synthesis, mainly hypoxanthine-guanine nucleoside transferases.

    Gout is caused by various factors that cause the abnormal activity of these enzymes, such as promoting the increased activity of uric acid synthase and inhibiting the activity of uric acid synthase, resulting in excessive uric acid production. Or due to various factors, the kidneys have a disorder of uric acid excretion, which causes uric acid to accumulate in the blood, resulting in hyperuricemia.

    If hyperuricemia persists for a long time, uric acid will be deposited in the form of urate in the joints, subcutaneous tissues and kidneys, causing a series of clinical manifestations such as arthritis, subcutaneous gouty stones, kidney stones or gouty nephropathy.

    This disease is the first acute or chronic arthritis of the peripheral joints, which is caused by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals in and around the joints, tendons and body fluids of supersaturated hyperuricemia.
