Abstract Gout is a chronic disease resulting from elevated serum urate (SU). Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified dozens of susceptibility loci for SU/gout, but few have been conducted for Chinese descent. Here, we try to extensively investigate whether these loci contribute to gout risk in Han Chinese. A total of 2255 variants in linkage disequilibrium (LD) with GWAS identified SU/gout associated variants were analyzed in a Han Chinese cohort of 1255 gout patients and 1848 controls. Cumulative genetic risk score analysis was performed to assess the cumulative effect of multiple “risk” variants on gout incidence. 23 variants (41%) of LD pruned variants set (n = 56) showed nominal association with gout in our sample (p |
