Abstract
Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) has been associated with deficiencies in serum magnesium level, decreasing insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. Glycosylated hemoglobin (Hb1Ac) is a biomarker of glucose values within the half-life of the erythrocyte, that is, 3 months. Low circulating and intracellular magnesium levels can modify glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Renal solute management is a parameter little used to estimate circulating and excreted concentrations of elements such as magnesium.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess and associated fractional excretion of magnesium (FEMg) and serum magnesium with metabolic parameters, especially Hb1Ac percent, in a group of well characterized subjects with T2DM and non-diabetics subjects (ND).
Methods: According to Hb1Ac, two groups were compared and associated with existing biochemical parameters, included Hb1Ac, fasting glucose, lipid profile, serum creatinine, serum magnesium and urinary creatinine for FEMg.
Results: HbA1c levels were explained by serum magnesium in 25%. Serum magnesium levels in the ND group were higher than in the T2DM group and this was a statistically significant difference. Serum magnesium ≤1.8 is a risk factor (OD 16.1; P=0.021) for an HbA1c ≥ 6.5%.
Conclusion: In this study, hypomagnesemia was a parameter strongly associated with the diagnosis and progression of T2DM, while FEMg showed no significant association.
Keywords: Hypomagnesaemia, Fractional excretion of magnesium, glycosylated hemoglobin, type 2 diabetes, risk factor, nondiabetic.

Advancing Diabetic Wound Healing: Mechanisms and Interventions
In recent years, diabetic wounds have become a global health concern with the increase in the incidence of diabetes. Diabetic wounds are a kind of chronic and refractory ulcer. It is generally due to the microcirculatory disturbances and the reduced levels of endogenous growth factors. Delayed cutaneous wound healing is ...read more
Oxidative and inflammatory responses in the development of secondary diabetic complications
Diabetes, along with its associated secondary complications, represents a significant global health challenge, contributing significantly to morbidity and mortality. Unhealthy lifestyle habits, reduced physical activity, environmental pollutants, and stress are pivotal factors in the onset of diabetes, particularly type-2 diabetes. Poorly managed hyperglycemia can lead to various complications, including neuropathy, ...read more
