Circulating magnesium and cardiovascular events

Circulating magnesium and cardiovascular events

In their systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective studies, Del Gobbo et al (1) showed an inverse association of magnesium concentrations with the incidence of cardiovascular disease, including fatal and nonfatal ischemic heart disease (IHD). Yet, another recent meta-analysis (2) has reported a beneficial effect of dietary magnesium on cardiovascular disease mortality among women but n...

Circulating Proneurotensin Concentrations and Cardiovascular Disease Events in the Community

Efforts at reducing cardiovascular events rely on the accurate identification of individuals at risk. Unfortunately, patients who experience cardiovascular events often have a paucity of traditional factors predictive of cardiovascular disease (CVD) to facilitate recognition of risk. In this regard, measurement of circulating biomarkers has been examined as an option for assessing risk for card...

Magnesium and cardiovascular system.

Hypomagnesemia is common in hospitalized patients, especially in the elderly with coronary artery disease (CAD) and/or those with chronic heart failure. Hypomagnesemia is associated with an increased incidence of diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, mortality rate from CAD and all causes. Magnesium supplementation improves myocardial metabolism, inhibits calcium accumulation and myocardial ce...
