Estimation of serum calcitonin, phosphate, and calcium in type 2 diabetes mellitus

Background and objective: Type two diabetes is known as insulin-independent mellitus due to body’s inability respond insulin can be managed by lifestyle change hypoglycemic tablets. This study aimed compare serum levels of calcitonin, calcium, phosphate between type diabetic patients controls. Methods: The cross-sectional included 50 who have already been diagnosed with control subjects without clinical signs any diseases. level was estimated for all participants. Results: mean calcitonin (2.35 ± 1.18) pg/mL in the case group, while (32.91 3.88) group (P-value = 0.001). (3.93 0.08) mg/dL (3.73 0.09) groups, respectively 0.117). calcium (9.68 0.10) it about (9.67 0.14) 0.955) healthy persons. Serum negatively correlated glycated hemoglobin glucose level. Conclusion: significantly lower than individuals. bone minerals (calcium phosphate) not altered when compared
