Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by relative or absolute deficiency of insulin, resulting in glucose intolerance.Objectives: The present study was planned to see the associations of serum uric acid with positive Rheumatoid factor in type 2 male diabetes mellitus patients. Methodology: This case control study was carried out at the department of Biochemistry at Ibrahim Medical College, Dhaka, Bangladesh. The duration of the study was from June 2015 to June 2016 for a period of one year. In this present study, male patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were taken as case group and age and sex matched healthy male were taken as control group. Rheumatoid factor was measured from the blood of all case and control group respondents. Others blood para meters were also measured for the correlation with the diabetes mellitus patients.Results: In this present study, 110 male patients presented with type 2 diabetes mellitus were recruited as case and age and sex matched healthy male were recruited as control. More rheumatoid factor positive in type 2 DM male patients with the uric acid range between 6.5 to 9.5 mg/dL. The number of patients was 5 out of total 9 rheumatoid factor positive cases. In this study serum uric acid was significantly correlated with rheumatoid factor in type 2 male diabetic patients. Rheumatoid factor positive cases were taking insulin among 9 and it was statistically significantly associated (p<0.001). Conclusion: In this study serum uric acid is significantly associated with positive rheumatoid factor in type 2 male diabetic patients.Journal of Current and Advance Medical Research 2017;4(2):58-62

BACKGROUND:Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a major non-communicable disease resulting from insulin resistance and is associated with cardiovascular,neurological and renal complications.Recent studies show association of hyperuricemia and Diabetes Mellitus.Uric acid increases oxidative stress that leads to vascular dysfunction and high intra glomerular pressure leading to renal complications.High serum creatinine is an indicator of renal compromise. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate serum uric acid and serum creatinine levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and to find association between them. METHODOLOGY: The study was conducted in Osmania general hospital. Fifty cases of established Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus formed the study group and 50 normal healthy individuals formed the control group. Serum uric acid, Fasting Blood Glucose (FBS) and serum creatinine were estimated by colorimetric enzymatic methods on Beckman coulter AU5800.Mean values were compared in cases and controls using student t- test.Study group was further studied under 2 subgroups with serum Uric acid < 7 mg/dl and ≥7 mg/dl.In these 2 subgroups the association of Serum uric acid with FBS and creatinine was analysed statistically. RESULTS: Serum uric acid were found high in cases(7.63+/- 3.36)as compared to controls(4.48+/- 1.09) p value < 0.001.Serum creatinine were also high in cases(1.59+/- 1.39 )as compared to controls ( 0.87+/- 0.29) p value <0.005.Study subgroup with serum uric acid ≥7 mg/dl was associated with high creatinine and high fasting blood sugar levels when compared to subgroup with serum uric acid <7 mg/dl. CONCLUSION: Our study showed increased serum uric acid and serum creatinine levels in cases when compared to controls.There was significant association between high serum uric acid and high creatinine levels in cases.Therefore,it is important to measure serum uric acid and serum creatinine levels in diabetics for early detection of renal pathology.

Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a heterogeneous disease which is characterized by variable degrees of insulin resistance or/and impaired insulin secretion as well as its deficiency (absolute/relative). The study was carried out to determine the relationship between serum concentration of uric acid and HbA1c among the geriatric group with type 2 diabetes mellitus in diabetic camps carried out at Amravati. We performed a cross sectional study on 30 patients of both genders of geriatric group, and a control group of 30 age and sex matched normal healthy individuals. Serum uric acid was tested by Uricase/PAP method [7, 15] and HbA1c by NycoCard READER II (color reflectometry) [6]. We observed the positive correlation between uric acid and HbA1c, as 0.080 which was found to be significant as 2.50 between the uric acid and HbA1c in geriatric patients of type 2 Diabetes. In healthy controls, we observed the positive correlation between uric acid and HbA1c as 0.074 which was not significant.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) belongs to the group of metabolic diseases. The long-term complications of diabetes such as: diabeticretinopathy, neuropathy, and nephropathy, can be prevented or reduced by controlling the blood glucose levels. Impaired glucose tolerance,hypertension and dyslipidemia can decrease the disappearance from proximal tubules resulting in an increase in serum uric acid. The aimof the study to know the ratio of uric acid urine/serum in DMT2 with controls. This research study used a cross sectional study was andconducted on 35 samples of type 2 diabetes mellitus and 35 control samples of In- and Out-patient Clinics at the Dr. Wahidin SudirohusodoHospital, Makassar. The blood glucose, uric acid levels and urine uric acid were examined by ABX Pentra 400 (colorimetric method). Thenumber of DMT2 male patients was higher than females. Most of their age were between 50−54 years. The ratio of the urinary levels ofurine/serum UA was positively correlated to: age, sex, urine UA in DMT2 and control. Their data were analyzed with unpaired t test (p =0.00). This research showed that the ratio of urine/serum UA in DMT2 was 1.5 times than the controls. The results of this study showedan increase in the ratio of urinary levels of serum uric acid as 1.5 times higher than the controls.

Background: The role of uric acid in the progression of prediabetes to diabetes has been known. Serum uric acid has been shown to beassociated with cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease. However, conflicting data exist asregards the serum uric acid (UA) levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus, which are associated with risk factors andcomplications.Material & Methods: The present study was designed to look for any association of serum uric acid with hypertension in type 2diabetes mellitus, taking into consideration the relevant clinical, biochemical and the anthropometric data. 110 patientswith type 2 male diabetes mellitus as case and 100 healthy malecontrols were included in this study.Results: This study shows that there were significant differences in mean of age, duration of DM, exercise time, waist hip ratio, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure within case and control but no significant differences of mean BMI was found between and control. The mean age, duration of DM, exercise time, waist hip ratio, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure and BMI were (51.83±9.911 years, 6.87±5.54 years, 1.94±.831 hours, .92±.03, 140±6.75 mm of Hg,90±2.41 mm of Hg and 25.43±3.19 Kg/m2 respectively), where as in controls these were (44.81±9.66 yrs, 00 years, 1.12±.327 hours, .91±.03, 130±1.28 mm of Hg, 80±6.18 mm of Hg and 24.96±3.02 Kg/m2 respectively). This table also shows that significant differences in mean of FBS, ABF, HbA1C and S. Uric acid between case and control, but there was no significant differences of mean TG, Cholesterol, HDL and LDL. The mean of FBS, ABF, HbA1C and S. Uric acid among the cases were (8.19±2.48 mmol/L, 11.29±3.47 mmol/L, 7.96±6.04 mg%, 189.72±111.36 mg/dl, 179±43 mg/dl, 38.38±13.77 mg/dl, 102.10±35.79 mg/dl and 8.39±2.61 mg/dl respectively, on the other hand among the control these were 5.91±1.13 mmol/L, 9.19±1.95 mmol/L, 5.93±1.01 mg%, 200±104.49 mg/dl, 183±42.25 mg/dl, 38.14±5.52 mg/dl, 110±33.23 mg/dl and 5.14±.84 mg/dl respectively.Anwer Khan Modern Medical College Journal Vol. 9, No. 2: Jul 2018, P 96-101

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: Using animal models and molecular biology researches, hyperuricemia has been shown to instruct renal arteriolopathy, arterial hypertension, and microvascular injury involving the renin-angiotensin system and resulting in renal function impairment. Nevertheless, the association between uric acid levels and the development of macroalbuminuria has been under-investigated in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: Patients with type 2 diabetes and regular outpatient visits were recruited from a community hospital in Taiwan since January 2014. Demographics, lifestyle features, and medical history were gathered by well-trained interviewers. All participants underwent comprehensive physical examinations, including a biochemical assay of venous blood specimens and urine samples after an 8-hour overnight fast. Participants were followed until June 2018. The primary outcome was the macroalbuminuria incidence. Univariable and multivariable Cox regression analysis were employed to explore the relation between uric acid and incident macroalbuminuria. Uric acid cutoffs for incident macroalbuminuria were determined with the receiver operator characteristic curve. Results: We included 247 qualified subjects (mean age: 64.78 years old [standard deviation=11.29 years]; 138 [55.87%] men). During a 4.5-year follow-up duration, 20 subjects with incident macroalbuminuria were recognized. Serum uric acid was significantly associated with an increased risk of incident macroalbuminuria (adjusted hazard ratio=2.39; 95% confidence interval: 1.53-3.75; p<0.001) with potential confounders adjustment. The uric acid cutoff point was 6.9 mg/dL (area under the curve 0.708, sensitivity 60.0%, specificity 84.58%) for incident macroalbuminuria. Conclusions: Serum uric acid was associated with incident macroalbuminuria among people with type 2 diabetes.
