ABSTRACT
Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte abnormality in clinical practice and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Decreased serum sodium levels are occasionally observed in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) due to numerous underlying pathogenesis mechanisms especially among patients with poorly controlled Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Therefore this cross sectional study designed to assess sodium level among T2DM in Sudan, who were over 5 years since got diagnosed with T2DM. Increased levels of glucose, HbA1c and decreased sodium level observed among uncontrolled T2DM than who were on control. As many studies results, in this one hypernatremia accompanied with T2DM.
Key words: Diabetes mellitus, Sodium and HbA1c.
