Abstract
Background: Hyperuricemia and albuminuria is very common among the patients of type II diabetes mellitus. The casual association between hyperuricemia and type II diabetes may be mediated by kidney dysfunction as well as insulin resistance. The objective of the study is to find association between serum uric acid level and albuminuria level in type II diabetic patient.  Methods: 60 diabetic patients were taken having both serum uric acid level and albuminuria level increased considerably. Incidence of hyperuricemia and albuminuria were compared taking into association the age, sex, BMI, FBS, HbA1C, serum lipid profile, urinary ACR of the patients. Results: Hyperuricemia was associated with the greater probability of albuminuria in patients with type II diabetes mellitus. Conclusions: Serum uric acid and albuminuria is prevalent among patients of type II Diabetes mellitus, hence strict control of blood glucose level will significantly reduce the level of uric acid and albuminuria preventing further related micro and macrovascular complications of diabetes.
