The risk of clinically diagnosed gout by serum urate levels : Results from 30 years follow-up of the Malmö preventive project cohort in southern Sweden
Background: Hyperuricemia (HU) is in the causal pathway for developing clinical gout. There are few population-based assessments of the absolute and relative risk of clinically diagnosed incident gout in subjects with HU.
