Model Evaluation

Biochemical analyzer was used to detect the content of serum uric acid, urea nitrogen and creatinine.

1. Changes of arthritis degree in acute gout rats
(1) The joint swelling degree was scored with vernier caliper, measured 3 times, and taked the average value.
　Joint swelling (mm) = ankle diameter after modeling (mm)- ankle diameter before modeling (mm). Joint swelling was detected at 2h, 6h, 24h and 48h, respectively.
(2) The plantar thickness is detected by digital calipers
Plantar thickness was measured at 2h, 6h, 24h and 48h, respectively.
2.Pathological changes of joints in acute gout rats
The pathological states of the ankle joint and paw of each group were photographed by camera at 2h, 6h, 24h and 48h, respectively.
3.Arthritis pain value of gout rats
　The mechanical pain threshold of rats at 2h, 6h, 24h, and 48h was measured by "Von Frey Hairs pain meter".
4.Number of inflammatory cells in blood of acute gout rats
　Flow cytometry was used to mark the total number of cells, neutrophils, monocytes and eosinophils in blood at 6h and 24h.

Pathological Results

5. Pathological changes of kidney: HE staining was used to detect the pathological changes of renal tissue in each group.

Cytokines Level

Statistical Analysis

SPSS software is used for statistical analysis, measurement data to mean ± standard deviation (x ±ｓ), using t test and single factor analysis of variance for group comparison, P<0.05 indicates there was a significant difference, P<0.01 indicates there are very significant differences.
