Methods In 12 healthy control cases, 28 non-diabetic hypertension (nNIDDM +H) cases and 25 type 2 diabetic hypertension (NIDDM+H) cases, uric acid (UA) levels were measured with uricase-peroxidase method. Arteriole resistance index (RI) and pulsate index (PI) in separate sections of renal artery included MAR, SRA, IRA were detected using CDEI with 2.1~4.2 Hz Doppler transducer in kidneys. Results In comparison, UA was significantly higher in non-diabetic hyper- tension group and diabetic hypertension group than in control group (P<0.01, separately). UA levels was also significantly higher in NIDDM+H group than in nNIDDM+H, P < 0.029. RI in separate sections of renal artery was significantly higher in nNIDDM+H, or NIDDM+H group than in control group ( all P < 0.01) , and it was significantly higher in NIDDM +H than nNIDDM+H groups (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01). In nNIDDM +H and NIDDM +H groups UA levels and IRA-RI could be elevated significantly following with the impaired heart function being aggravated (χ2 = 13.028, P=0.005, χ2=13.29, P=0.004); the dosage of HCT being increased (χ2 =14.216, P=0.001, χ2 = 14.661, P=0.001); the levels of GHbA1 being excessed unnormally (P=0.000). The correlation between UA and IRA-RI in both hypertension groups were directly related, in nNIDDM+H group r=0.842, P=0.000, in NIDDM+H group, r=0.797, P=0.000. Conclusions Uric acid levels and IRA-RI in hyper-tension patients were directly related. Uric acid levels and IRA-RI could be partly dependent on the severity of heart dysfunction, diuretic dose, and serum glucose status of diabete patients in long-term. Uric acid and the xanthine oxidase metabolic pathway may contribute to impaired regulation of arteriole tone in hypertension patients.展开更多
