With the improvement of people's living standards, the number of gout patients is increasing year by year.
Gout has become the second most common metabolic disease after diabetes in China.
Diabetes and gout are common metabolic diseases. Studies have shown that 31%-55% of patients with hyperuricemia have abnormal glucose metabolism, and 45%-75% of patients with diabetes have elevated uric acid. Hyperuricemia is an independent risk factor for type 2 diabetes. For every 1 mg/dl increase in serum uric acid level, the risk of diabetes increased by 17%.
Thus, diabetes is closely related to gout.
