  1. Age, age of gout onset and SUA value are continuous variables and are expressed by mean ± standard deviation (SD). Comorbidities including tophus, kidney stones, hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease and hyperlipidemia are categorical variables and are expressed by percentages. Since lots of samples were not recorded with these comorbidities, we presented the specific numbers of the recorded in brackets and did not perform statistical analysis. - denotes not acquired
