Background and aim: Hyperuricemia is common in individuals with obesity, metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus. This has been attributed to the hyperinsulinemia due to insulin resistance in T2DM and it’s effect on the renal excretion of uric acid. There have been recent studies depicting that hyperuricemia may independently predict the development of diabetes. However, there are conflicting studies of hypouricemia in T2DM as well which may be due to increased glomerular filtration rate with increased renal clearance of uric acid. In order to add further evidence to the existing database of knowledge about uric acid metabolism in T2DM this study was carried out. Material and Methods: This cross sectional study and the subjects were selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data recorded included serum uric acid, HbA1c, fasting and post prandial plasma glucose, serum creatinine, fasting lipid profile and waist hip ratio. Results: The mean value of serum uric acid was 5.11±1.2 mg/dL in diabetics and 4.59±1.12 mg/dL in non-diabetics, though within the normal reference range was statistically significant (p=0.029). However, the association of hyperuricemia (serum uric acid >7mg/dL) as a risk factor for diabetes mellitus was not significant (p=1.000). Waist circumference in cases was 94.8 ± 10 cm and in controls it was 86.6 ± 11.6 cm (p<0.001). Waist-hip ratio in diabetics was 1.0 ± 0.11 and in non-diabetics 0.9 ± 0.08 (p<0.001). HbA1c, FBS, PPBS, serum creatinine, waist circumference, waist-hip ratio were significantly increased and HDLc was decreased significantly in diabetes mellitus. Conclusion: Increased serum uric acid, decreased HDLc and increased waist-hip ratio are observed in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Steps should be taken to monitor serum uric acid, lipid profile and anthropometric measurements of diabetics and non-diabetics. Keywords: Uric acid, type 2 Diabetes mellitus

Abstract Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is linked to some metabolic disorders. Herein, we explored the relationship of levels of serum uric acid （SUA）with NAFLD in a population of non-obese Chinese. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that involved 183,903 Chinese men and women with an average age of 40.98 years who underwent physical examinations at a health screening center at Wenzhou People’s Hospital. We defined NAFLD by ultrasound detection of steatosis. We employed univariate analysis along with multivariate Cox proportional hazards analyses to investigate the relationship of SUA level with NAFLD. Moreover, we employed the receiver operating characteristic curve to establish the SUA cutoffs of estimating NAFLD. Results: Overall, 25,501 participants (13.9%) had NAFLD. The NAFLD ORs were 1.47 (95% CI 1.35 to 1.59), 2.01 (95% CI 1.85 to 2.18) and 2.77 (95% CI 2.55 to 3.02) compared with Q1.AUC values for SUA ratios was 0.728. The optimal SUA level cut-off value for identification of NAFLD was 287.5, with a specificity and a sensitivity of 60.7% and 73.9%, respectively.Conclusion: High Serum uric acid levels shows positive correlation with NAFLD. SUA constitutes a cheap, simple, non-invasive, as well as a beneficial biomarker that could be utilized to forecast NAFLD in the non-obese Chinese population.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to determine the relationship of haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level with flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) and nitroglycerine-induced vasodilation (NID) in patients with type 2 diabetes.DesignCross-sectional study.Setting22 university hospitals and affiliated clinics in Japan.Participants1215 patients with type 2 diabetes including 349 patients not taking antidiabetic drugs.MeasuresWe evaluated FMD and HbA1c level. All patients were divided into four groups based on HbA1c level: <6.5%, 6.5%–6.9%, 7.0%–7.9% and ≥8.0%.ResultsAn inverted U-shaped pattern of association between HbA1c level and FMD was observed at the peak of HbA1c of about 7%. FMD was significantly smaller in the HbA1c <6.5% group than in the HbA1c 6.5%–6.9% group and HbA1c 7.0%–7.9% group (p<0.001 and p<0.001), and FMD values were similar in the HbA1c <6.5% group and HbA1c ≥8.0% group. There were no significant differences in NID values among the four groups. After adjustments for confounding factors, FMD was significantly smaller in the HbA1c <6.5% group than in the HbA1c 6.5%–6.9% and HbA1c 7.0%–7.9% group (p=0.002 and p=0.04). In patients not taking antidiabetic drugs, FMD was also significantly smaller in the HbA1c <6.5% group than in the HbA1c 6.5%–6.9% group and HbA1c 7.0%–7.9% group (p<0.001 and p=0.02), and there were no significant differences in NID values among the four groups.ConclusionsThese findings suggest that there is an inverted U-shaped pattern of association between FMD and HbA1c and that a low HbA1c level of <6.5% is associated with endothelial dysfunction.Trial registration numberUMIN000012950, UMIN000012951, UMIN000012952 and UMIN000003409.
