A

Resembles RA- autoimmune component causing it
Small number of organisms

Parocirus B 19
Rubella
Hep C

Manifestations variable with a range from acute to subacute symptoms

34
Q

Gout

Define

A

The endpoints of hyperemia from ANY cause resulting in joint deposition of monosodium urate crystals (Tophi)

35
Q

How can Gout Present?

A

Acute or chronic

36
Q

10% od the population has hyperuricemia but only

A

1/20 of the 10% has Gout

37
Q

what is primary v secondary gout?

A

Primary: Hyperuricemia present with out other disease (33%)

secondary: in association with other dieases (67%) in people with fast growing malignancies such as lymphoma or leukemia due to high DNA turn over

38
Q

what is the lab value for hyperurcemia?

A

> 7 mg/dl

39
Q

what are the causes of increased Uric acid?

A

Overproduction
Increased catabolism of nucleic acid (greater cell turn over)
Decreased salvage of free purine bases
Decreased urinary uric acid excretion

40
Q

does increased intake of meat lead to gout?

A

no

41
Q

who is affected with Gout more, males or females?

A

95% is males

42
Q

what is the normal renal handling of Uric acid?

A

90% of filtered uric acid is reabsorbed by the irate transporter 1 gene

43
Q

what is the underlying cause for most primary gout?

A

Decreased filtration and under excretion of uric acid underlies most cases of primary gout

44
Q

What medication reduces excretion of uric acid?

A

Thazide diuretics

45
Q

What is the purine salvage pathway?

what mutation in the purine salvage pathway can lead to increased gout?

A

Purine catoblism–> Hypoxanthines–>Uric acid –> Allantion

Usually the Hypoxanthines is recycled and does not turn into uric acid

HGPRT Hypoxanthine transferases- if there is a mutation in this there will not be salvaging of the Purines

46
Q

what drug works on the purine catabolism pathway and thus works for Gout?

what other med is used for gout?

A

Allopurinol: inhibits the Xanthine oxiase which is needed to turn Purine catoblism–> Hypoxanthines and therefore there will not be uric acid production.

Probenecid: increases uric acid secretions

47
Q

What are the causes of Primary gout?

A

Overproduction of gout with either normal excretion, increased execrations
or
underexcretion with normal production
Or
HGPRT mutation (overproduction of uric acid)

48
Q

What are the causes secondary Gout

A

associated with increased nucleic acid turnover, chronic renal disease, Inborn errors of metabolism (HGPRT deficiency - Lesch nyhan syndrome)

49
Q

what does HGPRT stand for?

A

Hypoxanthine guanine phospboribosyl transferase

50
Q

what is Lesh Nyhan syndrome?

A

is a rare inherited disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT), produced by mutations in the HPRT gene located on (the) X chromosome.

51
Q

So how does increased uric acid cause gout?

A

increased formation leads to formation of monosodium irate crystals that deposit in the joint, this will cause a inflammatory response, which will lead to tissue damage

52
Q

what is an explanation to why some people have increased uric acid levels but never develop gout?

A

ApoE Coating: this is made by your body, it actually coats the monosodium crystals and does not cause a immune response.

53
Q

what are risk factors for developing gout?

A

Age: age of the individual and the duration of hyperuricemia are factors. Gout is rare before 20’s-30’s

Genetic predisposition: Runs in families and HCPRT mutation

Heavy alcohol : Concentrates the uric acid

Obesity: increase risk of asymptomatic gout

Thiazides:decreased excretion

Lead toxicity: increases the tendency to develop saturnine gout, damages the nephron in kidney

54
Q

what is Tophaceous arthritis?

A

A Tophi is a large aggregation of crystals surrounded by forgien giant cells and an associated inflammatory response of mononuclear cells

55
Q

What is Gouty Nethropathy?

A

Crystals deposit between the tubules.

56
Q

what is the patho behind gout

A

Sodium urate crystals precipitate from supersaturated body fluids

Precipitated crystals absorb fibronectin, complement and other proteins on their surfaces.

Neutrophils that have ingested urate crystals release activated oxygen species and lysosomal enzymes: mediate tissue injury and promote an inflammatory response

WBCs can be found in synovial fluid

Cells die releasing crystals stimulating further inflammatory reaction

Extracelular soft tissue deposit of urate crystals surrounded by foreign body giant cells(macrophages): TROPHUS

57
Q

explain the spiral of gout?

A

Attack starts:
Crystals form
WBC attack
Crystals pop the cell
Cell releases protein
Proteins call in more WBC and cause inflammation and pain
Protiesn lower the PH making it possible for more crystals to form…. top of the cycle again.

58
Q

why is it common to see Gout in the big toe

A

receives less blood supply, and thus is acidic, more likely to have crystal formation in a acid environment.

59
Q

what will gout look like on X ray?

A

Punched out juxta articular lytic lesions (Rat bite)

Minimal reactive new bone

60
Q 
Course of the diease
Asymptomatic hyperuricemia: 
Acute gouty arthritis:
Intercritical period: 
Tophaceous gout:
A

Asymptomatic hyperuricemia: precedes clinical manifestations -Can last years

Acute gouty arthritis: Painful
Involves one joint: later in course of disease is polyarticular
>50% have podagra: painful redened big toe (metatarsophalageal)
Fever- due to increased cytokins and IL1 IL6 TNF

Intercritical period
Asymptomatic interval between initial acute attack and subsequent episodes: Can last 10 years

Tophaceous gout
Appearance in cartilage, synovial membranes, tendons, and soft tissues

61
Q

what are the renal manifestations of Gouty nephropathy?

A

Renal failure: Responsible for 10% of deaths in persons with gout

1/3rd have mild albuminuria, reduced GFR & decreased renal concentrating ability

Urate Stones
10% of all renal calculi in US are urate stones
Urate stones correlates with serum concentatriton of uric acid

Also have increased freuqency of calcium containing stones (uric acid may serve as a nidus)
because crystals may act as a nits central that calcium will deposit on top of

62
Q

Gout is associated with what other 2 chronic dieases?

A

ATHEROSCLEROSIS and HTN

63
Q

what is is Pseudo Gout
Gout:
Pseudo Gout:

Pseudogout is AKA:

Cuase:
1
2:
3:

Secondary cause of Pseudogout:

A

Gout: Monosodium Urate
Pseudo-GOUT: Calcium Pyrophosphate

PSEUDOGOUT is also called CHONDROCALCINOSIS, or CPPD (Calcium Phosphate Deposition Disease)

IDIOPATHIC, HEREDITARY, SECONDARY

Secondary: joint damage, hyperparathyroidism, hemochromatosis, hypomagnesemia, hypothyroidism, ochronosis, and diabetes

64
Q

what is ochronosis

A

the syndrome caused by the accumulation of homogentisic acid in connective tissues.

65
Q

Pseudogout
Condition age:
Trauma and the aging process in cartilage promote:

A

Condition of old age: >50 % over age of 85 years

Trauma and the aging process in cartilage promote nucleation of CPPD crystals
