Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between serum uric acid level and body fat depots as well as the possible influencing factors of the relationship in type 2 diabetic patients.Methods Five hundred and thirty two patients hospitalized for type 2 diabetes were recruited in this study.According to serum uric acid,the subjects were classified into normal uric acid group (group NUA,n =426) and high uric acid group ( group HUA,n =106 ).Anthropometry ( BMI,waist circumference,hip circumference and WHR),serum uric acid level,blood glucose,renal function and lipid levels were compared between the two groups.Results Serum uric acid level was closely related to body fat distribution:(1) in group HUA,WHR,BMI,BUN,SCr and TG were significantly higher than that of group NUA ( [ 0.94 ± 0.07 ] vs.[ 0.91 ± 0.07 ],[ 26.91 ± 3.90 ]kg/m2 vs.[23.84 ±3.80] kg/m2,[8.66 ±5.94] mmol/L vs.[6.29 ±3.64] mmol/L,[93.9 ± 67.6 ] μmol/Lvs.[63.9 ± 20.6 ] μmol/L,[ 2.65 ± 1.92 ] mmol/L vs.[ 1.86 ± 1.46 ] mmol/L,respectively; all P < 0.05 ] ;while HDL-C was lower in Group HUA than in group NUA ( [ 1.09 ± 0.32 ] mmol/L vs.[ 1.24 ± 0.45 ] mmol/L,P <0.05).(2) Multiple regression analysis revealed that the serum uric acid levels were positively correlated with BMI,SCr,and TG ( b =0.201,0.500,0.153,respectively,P < 0.05 ),but negatively correlated with HbA(1)c and HDL-C ( b =- 0.168 and - 0.121,P < 0.05 ).Conclusion In patients with type 2 diabetes,serum uric acid levels are closely related with the BMI and Glucose/lipid metabolism,which suggests that body weight control is as important as the uric acid lowering treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes to cut the risks of cardiac and vascular diseases.
