Prevalence of Hyperuricemia and Associated Factors Among Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Northwestern Tanzania: A Cross-Sectional Study

Abstract

The burden of hyperuricemia among type 2 DM patients is quite high, and it is associated with female gender, high body mass index, lipids, and chronic kidney disease. This calls for regular screening of hyperuricemia in the population, and more studies are needed to establish the outcomes associated with hyperuricemia and create a treatment guideline.
