Background and aim: The present study was conducted to evaluate serum Magnesium and lipid prole in diabetic patients and to nd out any correlation between serum magnesium and lipid prole in diabetic patients and its association with complications. Material and Methods: In the present study, 70 diagnosed Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients aged >30 years attending Diabetic Outpatient and Inpatient Department at Vivekananda Polyclinic giving their consent for inclusion were considered to be included in the study as Cases. Results:In present the study, mean S. magnesium levels of patients with diabetic complications were found to be signicantly lower (1.09±0.22 mg/dl) as compared to that of patients in whom no diabetic complications were seen (2.19±0.71) and this difference was signicant statistically.Conclusions: In the diabetic population correlations of serum magnesium and Total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL and VLDL were Mild while HDL was of moderate level. Among controls correlations of Serum Magnesium with Total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL, VLDL, and HDL were found to be weak and not found to be statistically signicant.
