Abstract
Serum uric acid (SUA) is an end product of purine metabolism. SUA is excreted mainly through the kidneys. Multiple mechanisms have been reported to show the association of hyperuricemia with glucose intolerance. The association between insulin and renal resistance to absorption of urates has been found out to be the most important among these mechanisms. Methods: This comparative study contains 50 subjects of type 2 diabetes having an age group of 40-65 years were participated in case & 50 healthy subjects as control group. This case control study conducted in the department of department of biochemistry, LPS institute of Cardiology, GSVM medical college, Kanpur. Results: In the case-control study were found 54% male and 46% female in case group & 42% female and 58% female. We suggested that in study group 44% cases were belongs to 61-65 age group followed by other while in control group 42% were belongs to 61-65 age group followed by other age group. Conclusion: This study conclude that there were significant correlation between uric acid and HOMA-IR value. Hyperuricemia is related to risk factors for insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes. The study concluded a significant progressive relationship between increased uric acid level with respect to HOMA-IR levels which is an indices of insulin resistance.
