Gout is not associated with the risk of fracture: a meta-analysis.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Numerous quantitatively based studies measuring the association between gout and the risk of fractures remain inconclusive. In order to determine whether gout could increase the risk of fractures, a meta-analysis was performed systematically. METHODS:Electronic databases, MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library were systematically searched to identify studies evaluating the association of gout and the risk of fractures. No restrictions on language, publication date, or journal of publication were imposed. Meta-analysis was performed to pool the outcome estimates of interest such as fracture incidence, fracture risk, and fracture risk in different sites and at different time points in the follow-up period. RESULTS:Screening determined that seven studies involving a total of 684,964 participants (151,002 in the gout group and 533,962 in the control group) were deemed viable for inclusion in the meta-analysis. The results of the analysis showed that gout would not significantly have a relatively higher risk of any fracture (RR = 1.11, 95% CI 0.98-1.26). Subgroup analysis showed consistent results for sexuality (female: RR = 1.13, 95% CI 0.93-1.37; male: RR = 0.99, 95% CI 0.91-1.07) and several occurring sites (humerus, wrist, vertebra, hip, upper limbs, and lower limbs). Additionally, the results demonstrated that urate-lowering drugs prescribed early during disease had neither adverse nor beneficial effect on the long-term risk of fractures (RR = 0.89, 95% CI 0.76-1.05). CONCLUSIONS:This meta-analysis confirmed that gout was not associated with an increased risk of fractures. Urate-lowering drugs prescribed early during the course of disease had neither adverse nor beneficial effect on the long-term risk of fractures.
