Gout and calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease are two common causes of inflammatory joint disease. Despite differences underlying their pathogenesis, their clinical presentation and treatment share some common features. Optimal treatment for both requires prompt resolution of acute synovitis, reduction of chronic joint damage and management of associated conditions. Available therapeutic interventions and future strategies are reviewed in this article.

Differences between private and public primary health care centers and differences between men and women in antihypertensive care and cardiovascular prevention in all patients with hypertension treated in primary care in Stockholm County, Sweden.
BMC Prim Care

Division of Family Medicine and Primary Care, Department of Neurobiology, Care Sciences and Society, Karolinska Institutet, Huddinge, Sweden.
Aims: To study differences in cardiovascular prevention and hypertension management in primary care in men and women, with comparisons between public and privately operated primary health care (PHC).
Methods: We used register data from Region Stockholm on collected prescribed medication and registered diagnoses, to identify patients aged 30 years and above with hypertension. Age-adjusted logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) with 99% confidence intervals (99% CIs) using public PHC centers as referents.
Large language models for accurate disease detection in electronic health records: the examples of crystal arthropathies.

Division of Rheumatology, Geneva University Hospitals, Geneva, Switzerland.
Objectives: We propose and test a framework to detect disease diagnosis using a recent large language model (LLM), Meta's Llama-3-8B, on French-language electronic health record (EHR) documents. Specifically, it focuses on detecting gout ('goutte' in French), a ubiquitous French term that has multiple meanings beyond the disease. The study compares the performance of the LLM-based framework with traditional natural language processing techniques and tests its dependence on the parameter used.

In this work, coixalkyne A (), a natural polynuclear calcium complex with a novel cross-shaped molecular architecture, was isolated from L. along with the undescribed analogue coixalkyne B (). Their structures were identified by means of NMR spectroscopy, ECD calculations, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Bitter is one of the five basic taste qualities, along with salty, sour, sweet and umami, used by mammals to access the quality of their food and orient their eating behaviour. Bitter taste detection prevents the ingestion of food potentially contaminated by bitter-tasting toxins. Bitter taste perception is mediated by a family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) called TAS2Rs.

Objective: to report a case of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) in an older patient and highlight the diagnostic challenges in geriatric populations.
Case Presentation: We report the diagnosis of FHH in an 88-year-old polypathological patient with hypercalcemia discovered during a check-up for cardiac decompensation. Despite a confusing clinical presentation with gout symptoms, including repeated episodes of knee arthritis, persistent hypercalcemia conducted further investigations.
