Body weight variations in each group of mice. After a one-week adaptation period, all mice were randomly divided into six groups: IB model group (obese hyperuricemia model inoculated with bacteria), IB model plus CoTOL group (IB model treated with CoTOL), IB model plus allopurinol group (IB model treated plus allopurinol), CoTOL group (obese hyperuricemia model treated with CoTOL), allopurinol group (obese hyperuricemia model treated with allopurinol), and blank group (C57BL/6J mice treated with water). Body weight was measured on the first day, 4th and 8th week. Compared with the first week of the same group, △△ < 0.01. Compared with the 4th week of the same group, # < 0.05, ## < 0.01. Compared with the blank group,  < 0.05.
