The burden of gout increased across the world from 1990 to 2017, with variations in point prevalence, annual incidence, and YLD between countries and territories. Besides improving the clinical management of disease, prevention and health promotion in communities to provide basic knowledge of the disease, risk factors, consequences, and effective treatment options (tailoring to high-risk groups such as the middle-aged male population) are crucial to avoid disease onset and hence to decrease the global disease burden.
