Abstract EN
To determine the relationship between serum concentrations of uric acid and insulin secretion with hyperglycaemic clamp technique among adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) without hyperuricemia, we carried out a cross-sectional study on 45 patients of both gender.
We observed correlation between uric acid with male gender r=0.710 (P=0.001).
Also correlation between uric acid and total insulin secretion was positive r=0.295 (P=0.049).
As well as a positive correlation adjusted for body mass index was demonstrated for the first, second, and total phases of insulin secretion, respectively, r=0.438 (P=0.022), r=0.433 (P=0.022), and r=0.439 (P=0.024).
Serum concentration of uric acid showed a positive relationship with the total phase of insulin secretion; even in states prior to hyperuricemia, uric acid can play an important role in the function of the beta cell in patients with DM2.
