What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
Gout, the most common inflammatory rheumatism in France, is a complication of chronic hyperuricemia (\> 360umol / l). The resulting urate crystals are deposited in many tissues, especially the skeletal or kidneys. It appears in the form of spontaneously regressive inflammatory joint attacks in 5 to 7 days but recurrent. Gout turns into a chronic disease if uric acidemia is not reduced, and is responsible for joint destruction. It becomes a vector of renal failure and is associated with cardiovascular morbidity and a reduction in life expectancy. It is cured if a long-term treatment such as febuxostat leading to the normalization of the uric acidemia is administered.
However, the frequency of this disease is increasing in industrialized or emerging countries. The causes are numerous, particularly food, but also related to flaws in therapeutic care. Studies show that this treatment is not
