Solution

On observing Report D, it is clear that the level of uric acid is more than normal, thus the patient must be suffering from gouty arthritis.
Also, the elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN) indicates dysfunctional liver and/ or kidneys. It generally occurs due to a decrease in GFR, caused by renal disease or obstruction of the urinary tract.
