It is possible that differences in phenotype among gout cases are important at SLC22A11. In the Köttgen et al. study the association was restricted to the prevalent gout cases (OR = 0.86, P = 4.4 × 10-6) and not observed in the incident cases (OR = 0.96, P = 0.55). The gene discussed is SLC22A11; the disease is gout.
