Description

For sample adults who were ever diagnosed by a doctor or other health professional as having "some form of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, lupus, or fibromyalgia" (ARTHGLUPEV), ARTHGOUTEV identifies those who were told they had gout. Interviewers asked, "Which of these were you told you had?" and listed "Gout" as a possible response. Other possible responses included:

Respondents could report more than one condition, as interviewers were instructed to enter all that applied.
