Background: Kidney stones are a common urologic disease with an increasing incidence year by year, and there are similar influences between gout status and kidney stone incidence. Therefore the contribution of gout status to the incidence of kidney stones is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between gout status and kidney stones and to further explore the causal relationship by Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.
Method: An epidemiologic study of 49,693 participants in the 2009-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) was conducted to examine the association between the two. The causal relationship between gout status and kidney stones was assessed by Mendelian randomization analysis of data from the GWAS database.
Result: A total of 28,742 participants were included in the NHANES analysis. We found that gout status was associated with an increased risk of kidney stones [odds ratio (OR) = 1.45 (95%CI, 1.243-1.692); < 0.001]. In the MR analysis, we found a causal relationship between gout status and the risk of developing kidney stones (OR = 1.047, 95%CI, 1.011-1.085, = 0.009).
Conclusion: There may be an association between gout status and kidney stone risk. This finding requires further large-sample studies and adequate follow-up.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the diagnostic, biochemical, and hematological characteristics of patients with gouty arthritis and analyze their correlations with baseline characteristics to guide clinical practice, develop personalized treatment strategies, and improve patient outcomes.
Methods: A single-center retrospective analysis was conducted on 8,344 patients with acute gouty arthritis admitted to our hospital between January 2014 and December 2023. Baseline characteristics and laboratory data, including uric acid, blood glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), creatinine, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cell count, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, monocyte count, fibrinogen, and serum albumin, were collected.

Objectives: Gout is associated with hyperuricemia, and serum magnesium levels are negatively correlated with uric acid levels. Magnesium intake is also associated with a reduced risk of hyperuricemia. However, the relationship between the magnesium depletion score (MDS), which represents the systemic magnesium status, and gout is unclear.
