The correlation between serum uric acid and diabetic kidney disease in type 1 diabetes patients in Anhui, China.

ABSTRACT:

Background/aim

To assess the correlation between serum uric acid (UA) level and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in Type 1 diabetes (T1DM) patients in Anhui, China.

Methods

A total of 231 patients diagnosed with T1DM in our hospital were enrolled between January 2014 and December 2016. Urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR) in patients with hyperuricemia was compared with those without hyperuricemia. The relationship between serum UA level and urinary ACR was examined by Spearman's correlational analysis and multiple stepwise regression analysis. The binary logistic multivariate regression analysis was performed to analyze the correlated factors for type 1 DKD.

Results

The average serum UA levels were 257.7 [215.0, 338.0]μmol/L. The median levels of urinary ACR were sign
