Abstract :

Aim : The study is to determine the association of Serum uric acid (SUA) with Glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c) and Fasting blood sugar in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Materials and methods : A total of 50 cases aged >35yrs were selected randomly for one year study from Government General Hospital , Kurnool with exclusion criteria (hepatic,renal,cardiac impairement and gestational diabates mellitus and who is on insulin therapy). FBS and SUA were done on Transasia erba chem 5x except HbA1C done on Nycocard analyzer. Results :The mean values of SUA , HbA1c and FBS for diabetics were high.The p value is <0.0001 and is considered highly significant and the study found a good correlation between SUA with HbA1c and FBS in Type2 DM. Conclusion : As there is a positive correlation between SUA with HbA1c and FBS, uric acid has adverse effect on glycemic control in type2 DM.
