ABSTRACT
Objective@#This study aims to determine the association of serum magnesium with distal symmetric peripheral neuropathy among persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).@*Methodology@#A cross-sectional analytical study among adult Filipinos with Type 2 DM. Logistic regression was used to determine the association of serum magnesium with DSPN diagnosed by the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument. The null hypothesis was rejected at 0.05α-level of significance.@*Results@#The average serum magnesium levels were similar between those with versus without DSPN (2.06 ± 0.32 vs 2.05 ± 0.23, p = 0.873); the same was seen for corrected magnesium. There is insufficient evidence to demonstrate a significant statistical difference between those with and without DSPN in relation to glycemic control (HbA1c and FBS). Likewise, there is no significant statistical correlation between serum magnesium levels with HbA1c, FBS, BMI, or duration of diabetes.@*Conclusion@#This present study could not demonstrate any association between DSPN and serum magnesium, even after adjusting for age, sex, and comorbidity.
