    Ultrasound Demonstrates Rapid Reduction of Crystal Depositions During a Treat-to-target Approach in Gout Patients: Two-year Results from a Longitudinal, Observational Study (NOR-GOUT)

    Sunday,   November 10, 16:45–17:00. Georgia World Congress Center, Atlanta, USA Presenting author:  Hilde B Hammer, Norway What our Editorial Board said: This prospective cohort study evaluates the impact of using a treat-to-target (T2T) approach for control of serum uric acid (sUA) levels on ultrasonographic detection of monosodium urate (MSU) crystal deposition, such as presence of tophi or the double contour sign. The results of a 2-year follow-up of a 207 patient cohort, with intermediate analysis at 12 months, show that most patients achieved therapeutic sUA targets, and that there was a sharp reduction in ultrasound-detected of crystal deposits. This confirms the impact of a T2T strategy on reduction of MSU crystal deposits. –  Fernando Pérez-Ruiz, Spain
