Data are presented on the effects on 12 normal subjects of a 3-mm period of venous occlusion of the arm. Concentrations of both total calcium and total protein in serum are significantly increased, while serum magnesium and phosphorus and plasma ionic calcium concentrations remain unchanged. Concentrations of both total calcium and total protein are significantly greater in the serum of men tha...

To assess the significance of various maternal and neonatal factors in the aetiology of neonatal tetany we have investigated the serum calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and heat-labile alkaline phosphatase of 250 mothers from three ethnic groups at several stages of pregnancy and the serum calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium of many of their infants. Subclinical hypocalcaemia was found to be much ...

Introduction—Oral and intravenous replacement of minerals such as magnesium and calcium are usually straightforward in clinical practice, the choice generally being governed by the preparation most readily available. There are very few data comparing eYcacy and absorption profiles of diVerent magnesium salts. This case report highlights the importance of considering alternative preparations of ...
