Popis: Aim: The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of Chronic renal disease (CKD) in the patients known with gout arthritis. Method:A total of 162 patients with gout arthritis diagnosed between 2014 and 2017 were included in the study. Our work is a retrospective study. Glomerular filtration rate was calculated by Modification of Renal Disease (MDRD) method. Results: The mean age of the patients was found as 59,64 ± 14,54 (18-93). The majority of patients are male. Mean uric acid levels of the patients were found to be 9.07 mg / dL ± 1.75 (4-14.7). Among these individuals with gout arthritis, % 39,5 (64) had CKD stage 3-5, %46,9 (76) had hypertension, %18,5 (30) had diabetes mellitus, %14,2 (23) had coronary artery disease. 33.3% of the patients had CKD stage 2. Nephrolithiasis was detected in 22 of 85 ultrasound patients. The use of diuretics was detected in 36 of the patients. The consultation rate requested by the dietician was 41,4%. Conclusions: Hyperuricemia and hypertension are high in CKD. Diuretics used in the treatment of hypertension and edema may trigger gout arthritis. Similar to other studies in our study, the prevalence of CKD in gout arthritis was found high.
