Hyperuricemia can lead to gout.
Hyperuricemia means a raised level of uric acid in the blood, the end product of purine breakdown.

Dietary management limits purine-rich foods such as organ meats and some seafood, and alcohol.
Protein energy malnutrition (PEM), cancer and diabetes are not caused by high uric acid, although obesity and diabetes often occur alongside gout.
