We found significant association of uric acid concentrations with three gout-related SNPs (rs780094 in GCKR, corrected p = 3.94E−5; rs1183201 in SLC17A1, corrected p = 0.005; rs505802 in SLC22A12, corrected p = 0.003) and of triglycerides with rs780094 (located in GCKR, corrected p = 2.96E−4). Here, SLC17A1 is linked to gout.
