One hundred forty patients with DM was inhered in this study, and 100 subjects were healthy as a control revealed a highly significant increasing in serum (FBS), HbA1c, body mass index (BMI), Leptin and uric acid of diabetes patients than in healthy subjects(p 0.0001). While the ratio of glucose /leptin of diabetes patients was highly significant decrease compare to healthy subjects. As well as the present study indicate a positive relation between serum uric acid with HbA1c of diabetes mellitus patients and uric acid with leptin diabetes mellitus patients ((p 0.0001).
