Study of Magnesium, Chloride, Lipidperoxidation, Lipidhydroperoxides, among Typeii Diabetic Patients with Elevated Fasting Sugar Level

We have compared the level of magnesium, chloride, lipid peroxidation, lipid hydroperoxides among typeII diabetic patients with two groups with low (FD1)154±6.0mg/dL fasting plasma glucose and high (FD2)273 ±10mg/dL fasting plasma glucose. One hundred known type II diabetic patients and one hundred known healhy subjects were compared. The lipid profile study was carried out using standard biochemical methods. We have found magnesium 0.80±0.20mg/dL,chloride52±4mmol/ L was significantly decreased but also there is a concomitant increase in lipid peroxidation 7.4±0.3µ moles/L and lipid hydroperoxide5±1.4µ moles/L among FD2 subject with increase in glucose. The total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides were found to be higher among NIDDM subjects
