ABSTRACT
Aims & Objective: This study was conducted to estimate
the serum magnesium level in patients of type-II diabetes mellitus and diabetic
nephropathy.
Methodology: This case control study was conducted at
LUMHS Jamshoro Sindh Pakistan. Total 120 subjects were selected for this
research divided in to three groups, control and two case study groups for the
period of six months July 2020 to December 2020. FBS, HbA1%, serum creatinine,
serum magnesium levels were estimated from all subjects. The statistical
analysis was done by SPSS version 21 by applied ANOVA test to compare the
parameters in different groups.
Results: Serum Magnesium level was significantly
(p<0.05) decline in group C patients of diabetic nephropathy with poor
glycemic control as compared to control or diabetic patients without
complications.
Conclusion: Estimation of serum
magnesium level in the diabetic patients can be use for the early predictor
tool to know the expansion of diabetic complications.
