The association between serum uric acid (SUA) and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) has not been fully outlined, in particular in hyperuricaemic population. This study aimed to address this issue, along with the exploration of the role of insulin resistance that was assessed by triglyceride-and-glucose (TyG) index.
