This research aims to evaluate the relationship between musculoskeletal inflammation and carotid atherosclerosis in gout patients after treatment.
Conducted a 12-month prospective ultrasound evaluation
Assessed carotid atherosclerosis and musculoskeletal inflammation
Evaluated changes before and after urate-lowering treatment
Reduced musculoskeletal inflammation was associated with improved carotid atheromatous plaques
No ultrasound evidence of inflammation indicated better outcomes in carotid atherosclerosis
Correlation between treatment effectiveness and cardiovascular health improvements
Resumen
After 12 months of urate-lowering treatment, the absence of musculoskeletal inflammation at ultrasound in gout patients was closely linked to improvements in carotid atheromatous plaques.
