Objective. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between polymorphisms in the FTO gene and TSH level in Uyghur patients with type 2 diabetes in the Xinjiang region. Material and Methods. This cohort was made up of 498 Uyghur patients with type 2 diabetes who underwent genotype screening for rs8050136 and rs9939609 using the Sequenom MassARRAY system. The distribution frequencies of the genotypes and alleles at rs8050136 and rs993960 were compared between two patient groups, those with TSH < 2.5  mU/L and those with TSH ≥ 2.5  mU/L group. We further evaluated the relationships between these different genotypes and FT3, FT4, TSH, FPG, and HbA1c expression. Results. The results suggested the TSH level was 2.281 times higher in rs8050136 CC+CA carriers than in AA genotype ( 95 % CI = 1.024 ~5.080, P = 0.044 ) and was 2.417 times higher in rs9939609 TT+TA carriers than in AA genotype ( 95 % CI = 1.257 ~4.649, P = 0.008 ) after adjusting for age, sex, and BMI under the recessive model. TSH levels were significantly different between T2DM patients with different FTO genotypes, rs8050136 ( P = 0.008 ) and rs9939609 ( P = 0.003 ), with TSH levels in rs8050136 CC genotype carriers showing a significant increase compared to those in the AA genotype carriers ( P = 0.005 ). Additionally, rs9939609 TT and TA genotype carriers had a significant increase in the TSH level when compared to AA genotype carriers ( P = 0.001 and P = 0.031 , respectively). The TSH level was also significantly different in these male patients with different genotypes of rs8050136 ( P = 0.026 ) and rs9939609 ( P = 0.019 ). And TSH levels in rs8050136 CC genotype male carriers showing a significant increase compared to those in the AA genotype carriers ( P = 0.013 ) and rs9939609 TT genotype male carriers had a significant increase in TSH level when compared to AA genotype carriers ( P = 0.004 ). Conclusion. The polymorphisms at rs8050136 and rs9939609 are associated with changes in the TSH level with rs8050136 CC and rs9939609 TT genotypes identified as potential risk factors for increased TSH levels in these male patients.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by relative or absolute deficiency of insulin, resulting in glucose intolerance.Objectives: The present study was planned to see the associations of serum uric acid with positive Rheumatoid factor in type 2 male diabetes mellitus patients. Methodology: This case control study was carried out at the department of Biochemistry at Ibrahim Medical College, Dhaka, Bangladesh. The duration of the study was from June 2015 to June 2016 for a period of one year. In this present study, male patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were taken as case group and age and sex matched healthy male were taken as control group. Rheumatoid factor was measured from the blood of all case and control group respondents. Others blood para meters were also measured for the correlation with the diabetes mellitus patients.Results: In this present study, 110 male patients presented with type 2 diabetes mellitus were recruited as case and age and sex matched healthy male were recruited as control. More rheumatoid factor positive in type 2 DM male patients with the uric acid range between 6.5 to 9.5 mg/dL. The number of patients was 5 out of total 9 rheumatoid factor positive cases. In this study serum uric acid was significantly correlated with rheumatoid factor in type 2 male diabetic patients. Rheumatoid factor positive cases were taking insulin among 9 and it was statistically significantly associated (p<0.001). Conclusion: In this study serum uric acid is significantly associated with positive rheumatoid factor in type 2 male diabetic patients.Journal of Current and Advance Medical Research 2017;4(2):58-62
