Abstract

Hyperuricaemia occurred in forty-two obese subjects treated by total fasting. This was apparently harmless in that it did not lead to acute gout in any patient, including one male known to be a sufferer from gout. The relationship between hyperuricaemia and the acute arthropathy of gout is discussed.
