摘要：Objective Medication adherence in gout is suboptimal, and the lack of effective interventions to address it presents a huge challenge. Medication adherence and gout outcomes are worse in racial/ethnic minorities. The objective of this paper was to provide the details of the study protocol for randomized, controlled trial (RCT) in African Americans (AAs) with gout that will test the effectiveness of a culturally appropriate gout storytelling intervention. Methods The SToRytelliing to Improve Disease outcomes in Gout (STRIDE-GO) study will be a 12-month, multicenter, open-label RCT that will assess the effect of a culturally appropriate gout storytelling in at least 300 AA veterans with gout. Participants will be randomized to gout-storytelling intervention vs. a stress reduction video in a 1:1 ratio. The primary outcome is urate-lowering therapy (ULT) adherence measured with MEMSCap™, an electronic monitoring system (efficacy, 6 months; sustenance of efficacy, 12 months). Secondary outcomes include gout flares, serum urate (SU), gout-specific health-related quality of life [HRQOL
