Gout is the most common cause of monoarthritis in men occurring classically in the great toe and the knee.Extra-articular gout manifestations are rare.Only a few cases of head and neck urate c~stals deposits have been described in the literature.Precipitations in the middle ear cause conductive hearing loss with common otoscopic anomalies and difficult imaging diagnosis.We report a case of a healthy 58-years-old man with a middle ear urate deposit causing a progressive hearing loss as the very first symptom of gout.The nature of the deposit was unsure on computer to-mography (CT) due to atypical density.The final diagnosis was revealed after surgical procedure and histologic examination.A review of the literature is also presented.Seven cases of middle ear urate deposit as the first symptom of gout were found and compared.Progressive conductive hearing loss in middle-aged patients with abnormal otoscopy and middle ear atypical density mass on CT scan must lead to a minimal surgical procedure with a histologic exami-nation to exclude urate crystals deposits.

脉诊是中医特色诊断方法之一,需在中医理论指导下,凭借长期的切脉经验感知脉象信息,从而识别病症、分析病情.由于脉象复杂难辨,传统脉诊方法带有医者主观经验,缺乏客观量化标准,导致传承和发展受到限制.人体脉象与心脏搏动、动脉弹性等密切相关,随着超声技术在血流动力学方面的不断发展,超声辅助脉象定量分析成为当前研究热点.本文从脉象形成机制、各类超声及人工智能等技术方面对脉诊客观化的研究进展进行综述,可为脉诊传承提供借鉴.
