Objective: Increasing evidence suggests that oxidants from uric acid synthesis may cause renal dysfunction and cardiovascular diseases by inducing inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. Variations in the correlations between inflammation and albuminuria due to race and ethnicity have been noted in diabetic patients. However, studies on this topic among Turkish patients with type 2 diabetes remain limited. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum uric acid levels and microalbuminuria in patients with type 2 DM.
