Abstract
Gout-related disability is an underestimated and understudied problem. More qualitative and quantitative studies are needed that examine the concept of disability in gout and its impact on patients’ lives, both during and between disease flares. Moreover, future studies should try to identify gout-specific disability issues and examine the relevance and comprehensiveness of existing measures to further improve the assessment of disability in gout.
