   A look at this, the commonest forms of arthritis, its causes, treatment, treatmentof acute attacks, how to lower uric acids and complication.  
   http://www.rheumatology.org.nz/nz08003.htm
   
   Extractions: Gout is one of the most common forms of arthritis (joint inflammation). It appears as an acute attack often coming on overnight. Within 12-24 hours there is severe pain and swelling in the affected joint. The skin over the joint may be red and shiny. Gout usually affects only one or two joints at a time - most often the feet and ankles. The ball of the big toe is the commonest site. Without treatment the attack subsides in a week or so and when patients first develop gout there may be intervals of many months or even years between attacks. As time goes by, these tend to become more frequent and more severe and eventually many joints may be involved, sometimes all at the same time. At this stage a state of chronic or continuous joint disease may develop with progressive joint damage, disability and crippling (chronic gout). Gout affects mostly men and is very rare in women until after the menopause when it is quite often seen. Gout is very common in New Zealand and it is particularly common in Maoris and Pacific Islanders. Some surveys have shown it to be present in up to 10% of adult males. What causes Gout?

   Brief description of gout, treatment and prevention.  
   http://www.podiatrychannel.com/gout/
   
   Extractions: Overview Gout is a systemic disease (i.e., condition that occurs throughout the body) caused by the buildup of uric acid in the joints. An elevated blood level of uric acid (called hyperuricemia ) occurs when the liver produces more uric acid than the body can excrete in the urine, or when a diet high in rich foods (e.g., red meat, cream sauces, red wine) produces more uric acid than the kidneys can filter from the blood. Over time, uric acid in the blood crystallizes and settles in the joint spaces, causing swelling, inflammation, stiffness, and pain. Gout usually affects the first metatarsal phalangeal joint of the big toe (hallux) or the ankle joints. Incidence and Prevalence

   Extractions: Question: I am looking for more information regarding what foods are allowed and recommended for somebody who needs to follow a Low Purine diet. My father is 54, slightly overweight, and has Gout. He hates being on a diet, so I would like to try and find as many foods that he is allowed to eat to keep him happy. I am aware that a Low Purine diet includes foods high in DNA and RNA, and excludes beans, nuts, sardines, animal organs and alcohol. What foods are high in DNA and RNA? Answer: A low purine looks to avoid those foods that are high in DNA/RNA - you have it reversed. The foods are low in DNA to be included in a low purine diet. Diet plays a minor role in the current treatment of gout. Weight loss is long term more important to the chronic gout patient than the specifics of diet. However, any food high in DNA/RNA can elevate uric acid levels. Gout

It most commonly affects the big toe joint (first metatarsophalangeal joint), but can affect any joint. Gout usually starts as an acute attack that often comes on overnight. Within 12-24 hours there is usually severe pain and swelling in the joint. Screw up the vise as tightly as possible - you have rheumatism; give it another turn, and it is gout Gout usually only affects one joint at a time (sometimes two) - most often the feet and ankles. The joint at the base of the big toe is the most common site. If there is no treatment the gout attack usually subsides in a week or so. After the first attack there may be intervals of many months or even years before there are other attacks. Over time these attacks tend to become more frequent and more severe and eventually may involve other and more joints. Eventually, without treatment, a state of chronic or continuous joint symptoms may develop with progressive joint damage. Gout mostly affects men and is very rare in women until after menopause when it is seen quite often.

   Extractions: AAFP Home Page Journals Vol. 59/No. 4 (February 15, 1999) C Although hyperuricemia predisposes patients to gout and nephrolithiasis, it does not need to be treated in the asymptomatic patient. However, efforts should be made to modify or correct underlying causes. Epidemiology Gouty arthritis is the most common form of inflammatory joint disease in men older than 40 years. The National Health Survey (1983 to 1985) determined the prevalence rate of self-reported gout to be 13.6 cases per 1,000 men and 6.4 cases per 1,000 women. These numbers reflect an approximate threefold increase in the prevalence of gout since 1969. In contrast, cases of physician-diagnosed gout suggest a consistently lower prevalence rate5.0 to 6.6 cases per 1,000 men and 1.0 to 3.0 cases per 1,000 women. TABLE 1

    Extractions: AAFP Home Page Journals Vol. 59/No. 7 (April 1, 1999) A patient information handout on gout, written by the authors of this article, is provided on page 1810. G Pathogenesis Hyperuricemia is a risk factor for gout, but some patients with normal serum uric acid levels develop acute gouty arthritis. Uric acid, the end product of purine metabolism, is a waste product that has no physiologic role. Humans lack uricase, an enzyme that breaks down uric acid into a more water-soluble product (allantoin), thus preventing uric acid accumulation. Increased serum uric acid concentration is a result of either overproduction or underexcretion of uric acid. In 90 percent of patients, gout is caused by the underexcretion of uric acid. Although hyperuricemia is a risk factor for the development of gout, the exact relationship between hyperuricemia and acute gout is unclear. Acute gouty arthritis can occur in the presence of normal serum uric acid concentrations. Conversely, many persons with hyperuricemia never experience an attack of gouty arthritis. Hyperuricemia can have many causes. Serum uric acid levels become elevated in any disorder that results in the proliferation of cells or the excessive turnover of nucleoproteins. Hyperuricemia can also occur with decreased renal function and in genetic disorders that increase the production or limit the excretion of uric acid

It also explains how gout is diagnosed and treated. If you have further questions after reading this booklet, you may wish to discuss them with your doctor. What Is Gout? Gout is one of the most painful rheumatic diseases. It results from deposits of needle-like crystals of uric acid in connective tissue, in the joint space between two bones, or in both. These deposits lead to inflammatory arthritis, which causes swelling, redness, heat, pain, and stiffness in the joints. The term arthritis refers to more than 100 different rheumatic diseases that affect the joints, muscles, and bones, as well as other tissues and structures. Gout accounts for approximately 5 percent of all cases of arthritis.

    Extractions: Visceral Gout in Birds Margrethe Warden Of the many health concerns plaguing caged birds, one that seems to appear often enough to cause some concern is gout, which is brought on by the build up of uric acid Uric acid is produced by the liver and excreted through the kidneys. It is the result of metabolizing nitrogen that is present in the food. The uric acid itself is not toxic or harmful but the build up of crystals can severely damage body tissue. The build-up of uric acid crystals is the result of the inability of the kidneys to remove from the blood the waste products resulting from nitrogen metabolism. The uric acid, when not properly removed from the blood stream, will begin to crystallize and collect in various places in the bird’s body. Accumulation in the joints and surrounding tissues, usually in the legs and feet, is articular gout. This is considered to be the chronic form of gout and it presents as swelling in the joints and can cause the inability to properly balance and perch or lameness. Visceral Gout is build up of uric acid crystals in the various internal organs (viscera) and it is considered the acute form of the disease. I first encountered visceral gout in 1995 after the necropsy of my first lory, a four year old male red (

    Extractions: " It's been 4 years since my last gout attack and I eat whatever I want, and take no medications or herbs using this home remedy " Todd M., PA Gout is a form of arthritis caused by the buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints of the body, usually the big toe, causing inflammation, swelling and severe pain. The crystals are formed when a build-up of uric acid occurs in the body as a result of the body having difficulty in eliminating uric acid through the kidneys and urine, or in some cases, when the body produces too much uric acid. Traditional treatment includes drug therapy and modification of diet (see the links to the left). For years I suffered from Gout and in the middle of an attack I was told about an old time home remedy that keeps gout attacks from recurring . I'm a skeptic by nature but it's been four years since my last gout attack and it prompted me to put up this website and share the home remedy with all gout sufferers.
