From: Magnesium sulfate intravenous infusion versus intrathecal injection for prevention of post-spinal shivering during lower limb fracture surgery: a randomized controlled study

Grade	Group T (N)(%)	Group M (N)(%)	Group C (N)(%)	*P value	**P value	***P value
0	27(60%)	33 (73.3%)	16 (35.6)
1	2(4.4%)	3(6.7%)	1(2.2%)	0.416	0.54	0.2

Data are presented as numbers (N), percent (%)
*P value (for group T versus M)
**P value (for group C vs T)
***P value (for group C vs M). P value < 0.05 is significant
