Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes accounts for approximately 90 to 95% of all diagnosed cases of diabetes. Multi-system effects of diabetes mellitus such as retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy and cardiovascular diseases are important public health concerns. The Objective is to estimate level of serum magnesium in the development and progression of DM Type 2 and its complications. In Methodology retrospective study includes total 150 participants among them 50 patients are of Diabetic nephropathy (Complicated diabetic patients), 100 uncomplicated diabetics’ patients and 100 age and sex matched healthy control. Fasting and post-prandial blood samples were collected from all participants for estimation of FBS, PPBS, Blood urea, serum creatinine, and HbA1C and serum magnesium. Urine sample was also analyzed for proper identification of diabetic nephropathy patients. In Results the Hypomagnesaemia is found in diabetic nephropathy patients when compared to uncomplicated diabetic patients. In Conclusion this study concluded that low serum magnesium plays a major role in the development and progression of DM Type 2 and its complications.
