title: [Hypophyseal gonadotropic function in gout].
abstract: Gonadotropic function of hypophysis was studied in 109 patients with gout. Raised level of luteinizing hormone (LH) was found in men while women had decreased content of LH and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Severe lesions of joins and kidneys were associated with suppressed FSH secretion. The authors consider correction of hormonal dysfunction in gout to be advisable. Certain correlative relations were established to exist between levels of gonadotropins, sex hormones and indices of purine metabolism.
