Uric acid to HDL cholesterol ratio is a strong predictor of diabetic control in men with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Aim: Despite it has some disadvantages, the most important marker of diabetic control is glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c).

Methods: Male patients with T2DM that showed up in outpatient internal medicine clinics of our hospital were enrolled to the study. Diabetic subjects divided into two groups according to the level of HbA1c: well-controlled T2DM group (HbA1c?
