Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
the protocol is proposed to assess the effect of Navakarshika Ksheera Basti in Gouty arthritis in relation to Gout Impact Scale & URAT 1 biomarker. Gout is a prevalent condition that requires effective management to improve the quality of life of affected individuals. While modern science has developed effective treatments for gout, these therapies are often associated with a range of side effects, including diarrhea, elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels, hypertriglyceridemia, dry mouth, and oral ulcers. URAT1 inhibitors are among these treatments. This study aims to investigate whether the traditional treatment referred to as ’basti’ has an inhibitory effect on the URAT1 protein, which is released as a result of metabolic changes associated with gout.
