Eligibility for and prescription of urate-lowering treatment in patients with incident gout in England (2014)
Journal Article
Kuo, C., Grainge, M. J., Mallen, C., Zhang, W., & Doherty, M. (2014). Eligibility for and prescription of urate-lowering treatment in patients with incident gout in England. Journal of the American Medical Association, 312(24), https://doi.org/10.1001/jama.2014.14484

Gout is caused by urate crystal deposition secondary to persistent hyperuricemia. Current guidelines recommend urate-lowering treatment to prevent crystal deposition and encourage crystal dissolution for patients with more severe gout or concomitant...

The association between ANKH promoter polymorphism and chondrocalcinosis is independent of age and osteoarthritis: results of a case–control study (2014)
Journal Article
Doherty, S., Zhang, W., Maciewicz, R., Doherty, M., Muir, K., Abhishek, A., & Valdes, A. M. (2014). The association between ANKH promoter polymorphism and chondrocalcinosis is independent of age and osteoarthritis: results of a case–control study. Arthritis Research and Therapy, 16(1), Article R25. https://doi.org/10.1186/ar4453

Introduction Chondrocalcinosis (CC) most commonly results from calcium pyrophosphate crystal deposition (CPPD). The objective of this study is to examine the association between candidate single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and radiographic CC....
