Purpose of reviewThis review summarizes recent epidemiologic research findings on gout, and attempts to put them into the context of clinical and public health decision-making aimed at prevention and improved management of gout. Recent findingsA large prospective study found that coffee consumption was inversely associated with risk of gout and that consumption of sugar-sweetened soft drinks or fructose was strongly associated with an increased gout risk. Studies based on the Third National…

TLDR
In this century, gout is increasing in prevalence despite an increased understanding of its risk factors and pathophysiology, and the availability of reasonably effective treatment, which offer a better quality of life for gout sufferers.
Dietary Etiological Factors Contributing to the Prevalence of Hyperuricemia in Makkah Region
TLDR
All hyperuricemic subjects were found to be male and the suspected cause was purine-rich diets and decreased activity, and nutrition education is recommended to improving nutrition and health status and protective ofhyperuricemia.
The association of vitamin C, alcohol, coffee, tea, milk and yogurt with uric acid and gout
TLDR
A review summarizes recently published research regarding dietary impact on the risk of gout and serum uric acid levels and indicates new research has shown associations between vitamin C, alcohol, coffee, tea, milk and yogurt with uric Acid and the riskof gout.
Update on gout: new therapeutic strategies and options
TLDR
Novel approaches will hopefully lead to improved management of hyperuricemia and gout, and also to improvements in patient-centered outcomes, even for those who have previously failed to respond to treatment.
A systematic review on the prevalence, pathophysiology, diagnosis, management and treatment of gout (2007-2018)
TLDR
Number of gout patients is shown to increase in developed countries whereas developing countries remain at high risk category and to curtail the global health burden and to improve patient quality of life there is need to reduce exposure to risk factors and promote awareness.
Roles of diets and dietary factors in the pathogenesis, management and prevention of abnormal serum uric acid levels
Effect of Genetic Polymorphisms on Development of Gout
TLDR
A prediction model for gout that incorporates genetic and clinical factors may be useful for identifying individuals who are at risk of gout.

Diet, alcohol, and gout: How do we advise patients given recent developments?
TLDR
Dietary and lifestyle recommendations related to gout should consider their effect on many diseases beyond gout, and should reinforce established recommendations where the influence on gout parallels the impact on other diseases, and consider modifying the recommendations where they are divergent.
Pathogenesis of Gout
TLDR
Lifestyle modifications that are recommended for gout generally align with those for major chronic disorders (such as the insulin resistance syndrome, hypertension, and cardiovascular disorders); thus, these measures may be doubly beneficial for many patients with gout and particularly for individuals with these comorbid conditions.
Alcohol intake and risk of incident gout in men: a prospective study
Purine-rich foods, dairy and protein intake, and the risk of gout in men.
TLDR
Higher levels of meat and seafood consumption are associated with an increased risk of gout, whereas a higher level of consumption of dairy products is associated with a decreased risk.
Independent Impact of Gout on Mortality and Risk for Coronary Heart Disease
TLDR
Among men without preexisting CHD, the increased mortality risk is primarily a result of an elevated risk of CVD death, particularly from coronary heart disease (CHD), particularly from CHD.
Soft drinks, fructose consumption, and the risk of gout in men: prospective cohort study
TLDR
Prospective data suggest that consumption of sugar sweetened soft drinks and fructose is strongly associated with an increased risk of gout in men, and fructose rich fruits and fruit juices may also increase the risk.
The changing epidemiology of gout
TLDR
Osteoarthritis, which is thought to predispose patients to monosodium urate crystal deposition in their joints, is becoming more prevalent as a consequence of increased longevity.
Coffee consumption and risk of incident gout in men: a prospective study.
TLDR
Long-term coffee consumption is associated with a lower risk of incident gout, and total caffeine from all sources and tea intake were not associated with the risk of gout.

TLDR
Findings from men with a high cardiovascular risk profile suggest that men with gout are at a higher future risk of type 2 diabetes independent of other known risk factors.
