Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide guidance for the management of gout, including indications for and optimal use of urate-lowering therapy (ULT), treatment of gout flares, and lifestyle and other medication recommendations. METHODS Fifty-seven population, intervention, comparator, and outcomes questions were developed, followed by a systematic literature review, including network meta-analyses with ratings of the available evidence according to the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology, and patient input. A group consensus process was used to compose the final recommendations and grade their strength as strong or conditional. RESULTS Forty-two recommendations (including 16 strong recommendations) were generated. Strong recommendations included initiation of ULT for all patients with tophaceous gout, radiographic damage due to gout, or frequent gout flares; allopurinol as the preferred first-line ULT, including for those with moderate-to-severe chronic kidney disease (CKD; stage >3); using a low starting dose of allopurinol (≤100 mg/day, and lower in CKD) or febuxostat (<40 mg/day); and a treat-to-target management strategy with ULT dose titration guided by serial serum urate (SU) measurements, with an SU target of <6 mg/dl. When initiating ULT, concomitant antiinflammatory prophylaxis therapy for a duration of at least 3-6 months was strongly recommended. For management of gout flares, colchicine, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, or glucocorticoids (oral, intraarticular, or intramuscular) were strongly recommended. CONCLUSION Using GRADE methodology and informed by a consensus process based on evidence from the current literature and patient preferences, this guideline provides direction for clinicians and patients making decisions on the management of gout.

Abstract
Acrylamide (ACR), benzopyrene [B(a)P] and trans-fatty acids (TFA) could be found to co-exist in many foods processed by high temperature. Our study investigated the effects of elaidic acid (ELA), a predominant TFA, on neuropathology induced by simultaneous exposure of ACR and B(a)P to mice. Results showed ELA enhanced the decrease of weight gains induced by simultaneous exposure of ACR and B(a)P (AB). Moreover, ELA enhanced ACR-induced increase of gait abnormality, B(a)P-induced damage to learning and memory, and AB-induced both of the damage above. Meanwhile, ELA enhanced B(a)Pinduced axonal degeneration in hippocamp, ACR- and AB-induced up-regulating of abnormal cerebellar Purkinje cells. ELA enhanced ACR-induced up-regulating of MDA in cerebrum and 8-OHdG in cerebrum and cerebellum; ELA enhanced B(a)P-induced up-regulating of MDA in cerebrum, PCO in cerebellum and 8-OHdG in cerebrum and cerebellum. Meanwhile, the enhancing role of ELA, on ACR-induced reduction of SOD activity in cerebrum and cerebellum, on B(a)P-induced reduction of GPx activity in cerebrum were found. Results suggested that ELA play a enhancing role on ACR-induced and B(a)P-induced oxidative damage, which attributable to the cerebral pathological lesion, and subsequent effect on gait abnormality and deficit on learning and memory in mice.
