Short answerVerdict: Misleading. For people on urate-lowering treatment, NICE uses a treat-to-target strategy and recommends a serum urate below 360 micromol/L, with a lower target considered in some circumstances. A laboratory reference range and a gout treatment target are not necessarily the same thing.
