[Seasonal fluctuations in the electrolyte content in diabetes mellitus].
Results of examination of 257 patients suffering from diabetes mellitus demonstrated a reduction of sodium, potassium and magnesium content in their plasma. Erythrocytes also displayed a reduction of potassium and magnesium, and some increase of sodium content. Reduction of electrolyte level in the plasma and erythrocytes was more pronounced in winter; the erythrocyte sodium content was less in summer than in winter. The 24-hour sodium potassium and magnesium excretion is increased, during winter in particular. The efficacy of treatment of diabetic patients with panangin and potassium chloride for the purpose of elimination of magnesium and potassium deficiency was demonstrated. A conclusion was drawn on the expediency of using these drugs in the complex treatment of diabetic patients, particularly in winter.
