October 5, 2017 updated by: Jiang lindi, Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital
This study evaluate the serum uric acid lowering effect of sodium bicarbonate as well as its safety in patients with asymptomatic hyperuricemia or gout. Half of the participants will receive sodium bicarbonate only, while the other half receive none.
