Influence of Age, Gender and Duration of Diabetes on Serum and Urine Levels of Zinc, Magnesium, Seleniumand Chromium in Type 2 Diabetics in Calabar, Nigeria

The study aimed to demonstrate the possible effect of some variables such as age,gender and duration of diabetes on the serum and urine levels of zinc, magnesium,selenium and chromium in type 2 diabetic subjects and a control group of nondiabetic individuals. Serum and urine zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg...
