A recent study conducted at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital in Muscat, Oman, explored the prevalence of dysmagnesemia (abnormal magnesium levels) in patients with diabetes mellitus and its correlations with glycemic control, medication use, and diabetic complications. The study found that 17.1% of patients with diabetes had hypomagnesemia (low magnesium levels), while 4.1% had hypermagnesemia (high magnesium levels). Females were more likely to have hypomagnesemia, while the hypermagnesemia group had a higher prevalence of hypertension, retinopathy, chronic kidney disease, and elevated creatinine levels. The study concluded that hypomagnesemia was common among patients with diabetes, while hypermagnesemia was associated with microvascular complications. [Extracted from the article] |
