Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To determine effects of the serum levels of phosphorus, calcium and magnesium on patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS: A total of 244 hospitalized patients were enrolled from 2014 to 2015, and they were assigned into a type 2 diabetic group (n=162) and control group (n=82). The serum levels of phosphorus, calcium and magnesium were determined. The correlations between blood levels of glucose and the serum levels of phosphorus, calcium or magnesium were analyzed. RESULTS: The serum level of phosphate in type 2 diabetic group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the level of serum calcium and magnesium between the two groups. In the type 2 diabetic group, there was no significant correlation between the level of blood glucose and the serum level of phosphorus, calcium or magnesium. In the control group, the blood glucose and serum levels of phosphorus were positively correlated (r=0.226, P=0.042), but there was no significant correlation between the level of blood glucose and the serum level of calcium or magnesium. CONCLUSION: Serum level of phosphorus is obviously decreased in type 2 diabetes patients, indicating that they may have a disorder in phosphorus metabolism.
