Hyperuricemia

Hyperuricemia is caused by hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia, also known as gout, is a group of diseases caused by disorders of purine metabolism. Its clinical features are hyperuricemia and the recurrent episodes of gouty acute arthritis and goutstones. Chronic arthritis and joint deformities, often involving the kidneys, cause chronic interstitial nephritis and uric acid kidney stones. The disease can be divided into two categories: primary and secondary. The etiology of the primary is largely unexplained except for a few caused by enzyme defects. It is often accompanied by hyperlipidemia, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, arteriosclerosis and coronary disease. Heart disease, etc., is a genetic disease. Secondary cases can be caused by a variety of reasons such as kidney disease, blood disease and drugs. Hyperuricemia patients with excessive uric acid synthesis or excretory disorders, often with gouty arthritis or gout nodules, uric acid urinary calculi, urine and renal function tests show chronic interstitial nephritis and increased blood uric acid.
