Summary of research interests
Gout and Type 2 diabetes mellitusa: we will investigate the role of the pathophysiology association between gout (the medical care and the antigout agents(uricosuric drugs)) and the risk of developing diabetes; diabetes (the medical care, drugs used in diabetes, the uricosuric effect of glycosuria and the impaired inflammatory response) and the risk of developing gout; gout/diabetes and the risk of developing cardiovascular/death events.
