What this Trial Is About
Gout is the most frequent inflammatory arthritis in men after 40 years, with a prevalence of 0.9% in France. This disease is characterized by deposits of sodium urate crystals in joints, tendons and soft tissues, which can be detected by ultrasound examination. To date, there was no study assessing inflammatory, structural and deposit lesions due to gout in joints and tendons, since the standardization of ultrasound definitions of gout by the OMERACT (Outcome Measures in Rheumatology) in 2015. The objective of this study is t estimate the prevalence and severity of ultrasound inflammatory lesions (synovitis, tenosynovitis, soft tissues abnormalities), structural lesions (osteophytes, erosions) and abnormalities due to sodium urate deposits (double contour, aggregates, tophi) in patients with gout.
