Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease of growing concern not only Because of it's adverse effect on various metabolism of the body, but also Because it puts the patient at higher risk of developing various macro and Microvascular complications like cardiovascular disease (Ischaemic heart - Disease), cerebrovascular disease, peripheral arterial disease, retinopathy, Nephropathy, neuropathy etc. Low serum magnesium has been proposed as a risk factor not only for The development of Diabetes mellitus but also has been linked to the emergence Of it's various micro and macrovascular complications. In some studies, diabetes mellitus has been found to lead to loss of Magnesium in the urine, associated with glycosuria, which further lowers the Magnesium in the plasma of Diabetic patients, aggravating the risk for Development of it's complications. But various studies on human and animal Model has given contradictory results regarding the association of low Magnesium and various macro and microvascular complication of DM. Since the prevalence of DM is found to increase very fast, the interest Developed to determine the actual level of magnesium in Type 2 Diabetic Mellitus and it's complications, and to asscertain how far it correlates with the Established biochemical parameter of this metabolic diseases and whether it's Determination could be a helpful indicator in assessing the development and Intensity of it's complications. Hence with the above view this work "Evaluation of Serum Magnesium Level in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and it's Complications" has Been taken up for the study.
