Introduction: The costs of treating an elderly patient with gout are largely related to the treatment of concomitant pathological conditions and complications. Determining the costs of treating the disease is made by clinical and economic analysis, the task of which is to calculate the "cost of the illness".
Material And Methods: A descriptive, selective study of 237 patients with gout.
Unlabelled: Age-specific intervention and assessment thresholds based on FRAX® were developed for eight Eurasian countries participating in the EVA study (Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, the Russian Federation, and Uzbekistan). The intervention thresholds (major osteoporotic fracture) ranged from 3.6 (Armenia and Georgia) to 12.

- A survey in Moldova identified the incidence of hip, proximal humerus, and distal forearm fractures, estimating 11,271 fractures in 2015 with projections of 15,863 by 2050.
- The study aimed to understand the epidemiology of osteoporotic fractures in Moldova to create a specific FRAX prediction tool for fracture risk assessment.
- The results showed that hip fracture incidence can predict other fractures and that Moldova's FRAX probabilities are higher compared to neighboring countries like Ukraine and Romania.
