The aim of this updated guideline is to provide comprehensive recommendations for the management of gout in patients with common comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease(CKD), cardiovascular disease(CVD), diabetes, osteoarthritis(OA), and gastrointestinal disorders. This guideline was developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel consisting of specialists in endocrinology, rheumatology, nephrology, cardiology, gastroenterology, and methodology. The development process adhered to standard methodologies, including PICO(population, intervention, comparator, and outcomes) question deconstruction, systematic literature review, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation(GRADE) for evidence and recommendation evaluation, Delphi voting, and expert consensus. The guideline presents 26 evidence-based recommendations addressing 7 clinical questions for patients with hyperuricemia and gout in the context of comorbidities. Key recommendations include the maintenance of strict serum urate targets, particularly for patients with CKD stage≥3, chronic gouty arthritis, and OA, in order to prevent disease progression. In patients with CVD or diabetes, intra-articular triamcinolone is preferred over systemic glucocorticoids. Prioritized anti-inflammatory treatments for patients with CKD, gastrointestinal diseases and OA are recommended. The guideline also introduces emerging therapies, such as interleukin-1 inhibitors and selective urate transport inhibitors, as potential treatment options for refractory cases. The update offers a comprehensive, patient-centered approach to managing gout, particularly in individuals with associated comorbidities. Multidisciplinary collaboration and emerging new treatments and evidence ensure the optimization of the recommendations.

Objective:To investigate the changes of biventricular myocardial strain in amateur marathon runners using the cardiac MR feature tracking (CMR-FT) technique.Methods:Forty-one amateur marathon runners (marathon exercise group) and 20 age-matched healthy volunteers (control group) were recruited according to the inclusion criteria. After the kinematic parameters were obtained, all subjects underwent a CMR cine sequence imaging. The CMR images were post-processed using CVI42 software. The biventricular function parameters including end-diastole/end-systolic volume (EDV/ESV), end-diastole/end-systolic volume index (EDVI/ESVI), end-diastole/end-systolic myocardial mass (MMD/MMS), end-diastole/end-systolic myocardial mass index (MMDI/MMSI), stroke volume and index (SV/SVI), cardiac index (CI) and ejection fraction (EF), as well as the biventricular myocardial strain parameters including global radial/circumferential/longitudinal strain (GRS/GCS/GLS), global radial/circumferential/longitudinal diastolic strain rate (GRSDr/GCSDr/GLSDr) were measured and calculated. Demographic data, kinematic index, cardiac function and myocardial strain parameters were compared between the two groups.Results:Compared with the control group, the exercise group showed significant decrease heart rates ( P<0.001). It was found that the left ventricular function parameters (ESVI, MMD, MMDI, MMS, MMSI) and the right ventricular function parameters (EDVI, ESVI) of the exercise group were significantly higher than those of control group (all P<0.05); while the left ventricular strain parameters (GCS, GRSDr, GCSDr, GLSDr) and the right ventricular strain parameters (GRSDr, GLSDr) were of the exercise group were significantly lower than those of control group (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Amateur marathon runners have lower myocardial strain capacity and higher left ventricular myocardial mass. The ventricular diastolic strain rate may sensitively reflect the compensatory changes of ventricular function with the normal ejection fraction.

Objective: To investigate the mental health status of railway female workers and related influencing factors, and to provide a scientific strategy for labor protection regulations in railway female workers. Methods: Cluster sampling was used to select 5033 female workers from Jinan, Nanning, Qinghai-Tibet, and Wuhan railway systems in China from January to August, 2016. A uniform reproductive health questionnaire, as well as the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) , was used to investigate their general information (age, marital status, education level, and family income) , work type (day shift, night shift, or work on shift) , work position, and the presence or absence of exposure to occupational hazardous factors. The score on each factor of SCL-90 and the positive rate of mental health status were calculated. Results: The positive rate of mental health status was 10.6% in railway female workers. The workers exposed to occupational hazardous factors had a significantly higher positive rate of mental health status than those not exposed to occupational hazardous factors (14.20% vs 8.02%, P<0.01) . There were significant differences in the positive rate of mental health status between workers with different ages, marital status, education levels, histories of abortion, or annual family income levels (P<0.01) . The scores of somatization (1.54±0.62) and horror (1.28±0.47) in SCL-90 were significantly higher than the Chinese adult norm (P<0.01) . The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that exposure to occupational hazardous factors, night shift, overwork, and carrying heavy objects were associated with mental health problems (OR=1.797, 95%CI: 1.393-2.318; OR=0.641, 95%CI: 0.498-0.827; OR=0.586, 95%CI: 0.439-0.783; OR=0.580, 95%CI: 0.378-0.890) . Conclusion Railway female workers have lower levels of mental health than the general population and are under significant occupational stress. Exposure to occupational hazardous factors, night shift, overwork, and carrying heavy objects are associated with the development of mental health problems in railway female workers.
