Prevalence of magnesium deficiency in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus from infection over 10 years in Al-Diwaniyah City, Iraq

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the serum magnesium levels and dietary magnesium intake in patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) for over 10 years, as well as in their healthy counterparts. In addition, a study was conducted to identify the most effective criteria for predicting changes in metabolic regulation and serum magnesium levels. Materials and Methods: A series of clinical examinations were performed on a total of sixty individuals diagnosed with diabetes between January 2024 and April 2024 at Al-Diwaniyah General Hospital. The diagnosis is established via a clinical examination. A total of 35 individuals who were in good health and did not have any medical conditions were selected as the control group. Results: An evaluation was conducted to investigate the impact of Magnesium symbols on diabetic patients with type 2 diabetes. Table with three items Figure 3 displays the average ± standard deviation (SD) of serum Magnesium levels, measured in mg/dl, in both normal control subjects and type 2 diabetic patients. The figure also includes the biostatistical calculation and the results of the student t-test. Diabetic patients with type 2 diabetes show a considerable drop in serum Magnesium levels compared to the control group. (p
