Association of Hypomagnesemia With Diabetic Complications.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThe study aimed to study the association of hypomagnesemia with diabetic complications in type 2 diabetics. MATERIALS AND
methodThis cross-sectional study, conducted at a Ghurki Trust Teaching Hospital, spanned from January to June 2023 and included 100 randomly selected diabetic patients aged 30-70. With institutional board approval and informed consent, the study focused on assessing hypomagnesemia, using a standard level of below 1.6 mg/dL, ensuring participant confidentiality and privacy. Data collected through physical assessments were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 24.0 (Released 2016; IBM Corp., Armonk, New York, United States), including descriptive statistics, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and paired t-test.
resultsA total of 100 diabetic admitted patients were randomly selected for the study ages from 30 to 70 years irrespective of their gender. The mean age of the participants was 53.86±9.74 years. The mean HbA1c of the participants was 8.7±2.32. Forty-eight percent of them had HbA1c less than 8, while 52% had greater than 8 HbA1c. The mean HbA1c in the hypomagnesemia group was 10.8±1.98, while in the normomagnesemia group, it was 8.9±2.2. There were 58.97% of foot ulcers in Group 1, while in Group 2, there were 31.14%. Around 38.46% and 14.75% had neuropathy in Groups 1 and 2, respectively. Nephropathy in Group 1 was 28.20%, while in Group 2, it was 11.47%. Around 69.23% of Group 1 had retinopathy and 37.70% had retinopathy in Group 2. Hypertension was 23.07% in Group 1 and 37.70% in Group 2; moreover, 7.69% and 8.19% had coronary diseases in Groups 1 and 2 accordingly.
conclusionThe current study concluded that hypomagnesemia was found to have an association with diabetic complications like neuropathy, nephropathy, foot ulcers, and poor glycemic control as evidenced by HbA1c.
