Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the major cause of the mortality and morbidity in the world. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by relative deficiency of insulin, resulting in glucose intolerance. Aims and objectives: The present study was planned to understood more about hyperuricemia and microalbuminuria and its complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Material and methods: In present study, 565 patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus and age and sex matched controls were included. Observation and results: We found increased levels of serum uric acid and urine microalbumin in type 2 diabetic patients as compared to controls (p<0.001). We observed the positive correlation between serum uric acid and urine microalbumin (p<0.001). Conclusion: The serum uric acid and urine microalbumin are not only early diagnostic markers for atherogenic cardiovascular disease and renal disease but also prognostic monitoring of the disease in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.
