Abstract
The current study was conducted to observe the relationship between serum uric acid, lipid profile and fasting plasma glucose in type 2 DM patients. It was a cross-sectional study. A total of 618 participants were included in the study (203-healthy, 206-prediabetic and 209-T2DM). One way analysis of variance was used to compare the mean between these three groups. A linear regression model was used to find the relationship between SUA and FPG in T2DM. The mean values of serum uric acid in pre-diabetes and T2DM (4.929±1.33 and 4.69±1.41 mg/dl, respectively) were lower compared to healthy (5.40±1.08 mg/dl). SUA showed a significant positive correlation with serum triglycerides in T2DM (p<0.05). The linear regression model showed that SUA was inversely associated with FPG in T2DM after adjustment for age and gender. The biological interrelationship observed in the current study raises the possibility of potential pathogenic overlap between SUA and FPG. SUA might be involved in a metabolic imbalance which in turn leads to T2DM.
