I keep a lookout for gout research, or any type of interesting gout news. I usually mention it here on the blog, or in the gout forum first, but sometimes I put it straight onto GoutPal.com or into my newsletter.
Lately, I’ve been keeping various bits of gout news in different places, and losing track of it. Then I realized that the easiest way to keep track, and keep you informed at the earliest opportunity, is to post the details on the gout forum. I’ve enlisted the help of my good friend Al O’Purinol to post these little snippets for me.
One downside of this is that the jargon is very strong in a lot of these reports. When I do my articles, I try to replace some of the more obscure terms with better-known phrases. Now that you see the gout research abstracts in their original form, I am concerned that some of the jargon makes them very difficult to read.
Step forward a brilliant plug-in for WordPress called Hover. I’m using it to start a glossary of gout terms that you can see just by moving your mouse over the term.
