Measuring Serum Level of Ionized Magnesium in Patients with Migraine
OBJECTIVE Migraine is known as one of the most disabling types of headache. Among the variety of theories to explain mechanism of migraine, role of serum magnesium is of great importance. Serum magnesium, as a pathogenesis factor, was considerably lower in patients with migraine. We established this study to see if serum ionized magnesium, not its total serum level, was different in migraineurs...
متن کاملSerum ionized magnesium in chronic alcoholism: is it really decreased?
Chronic alcoholism is associated with a marked deficit in total magnesium (tMg). However, little is known about the status of the physiologically active form, ionized magnesium (iMg). We assessed serum iMg (measured with two ion-selective electrodes, AVL 988-4 and NOVA CRT) and tMg concentrations in chronic alcoholics at admission (n = 31) and after abstinence (n = 13) and compared these result...

متن کاملIntravenous magnesium sulfate relieves cluster headaches in patients with low serum ionized magnesium levels.
Patients with cluster headaches have been reported to have low serum ionized magnesium levels. We examined the possibility that patients with cluster headaches and low ionized magnesium levels may respond to an intravenous infusion of magnesium sulfate. Thirty-eight infusions of magnesium sulfate were given to 22 patients with cluster headaches. The mean ionized magnesium level prior to 23 infu...
متن کاملSerum magnesium levels in patients with pre-eclampsia and eclampsia with different regimens of magnesium sulphate
Background Pre-eclampsia and the subsequent eclampsia account for a common cause of maternal mortality worldwide and efforts aimed at reducing its menace are vital. Objective To estimate the serum magnesium levels in pre-eclampsia and eclampsia and to study the effect of using different regimens of magnesium sulphate. Methods 70 cases of pre-eclampsia and eclampsia and 35 normal pregnant women ...
