introduction: considering the high incidence of preterm labor and its known complications, and that human myometrium contains receptors for human chronic gonadotropin (hcg) and that hcg can inhibit myometrial contractions on vitro, made me study treating effects of hcg on preterm labor. this clinical trial study was carried out to compare the effect of hcg, and magnesium sulfate (mgso4) on prev...

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a drug safety communication on 05/30/2013 recommending "against prolonged use of magnesium sulfate to stop preterm labor (PTL) due to bone changes in exposed babies." In September of 2013, The American Congress of Obstetrics and Gynecologists issued Committee Opinion No. 573 " Magnesium Sulfate Use in Obstetrics" , which supports the short term use o...

Aims: We aimed to demonstrate the effect of magnesium sulfate for fetal neuroprotection on maternal and neonatal outcomes of pregnants delivered before 32 weeks. Materials and methods: The records of 107 patients who were delivered before 32 weeks of pregnancy were reviewed retrospectively during the period between January 2011-February 2016. Patients who were treated with MgSO4 for fetal neuro...

The scarcity of durable and low-cost sorbent materials remains a significant technological barrier to long-term heat storage. In the present work, composite based on activated carbon supports magnesium sulfate hydrates (labelled MgSO4/AC) were developed in order increase energy density improve mass transport phenomena. results characterization revealed uniform dispersion composites produced via...

BACKGROUND Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a Gram-negative halophilic bacterium which is found largely in estuarine and coastal waters. The bacteria has been a main focus in gastro-intestinal infections caused primarily due to the consumption of contaminated seafood. It was shown to survive in magnesium concentrations as high as 300 mM which are toxic to various other micro-organisms. Several genes ...

Introduction: The dominant naturally-occurring members of the MgSO4·nH2O series on Earth are epsomite (MgSO4·7H2O), hexahydrite (MgSO4·6H2O), and kieserite (MgSO4·H2O). In addition, other magnesium sulfate hydrates (sanderite 2H2O, starkeyite 4H2O, pentahydrite 5H2O) have been identified as efflorescent salts in limited localities in the United States, Chile, and Germany. Chipera et al., [1,2] ...

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) during late gestation and lactation on sow and litter performance, fecal moisture, blood biochemistry parameters, immunoglobulin levels and milk composition in sows. Forty-eight sows (Yorkshire×Landrace, 4th to 5th parity) were randomly allocated to 1 of 4 dietary treatments suppleme...

Sufentanil-induced cough is a common phenomenon during the induction of anesthesia. This double-blind, randomized, and placebo-controlled study was designed to investigate the effects of prophylactic magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) on the incidence and severity of sufentanil-induced cough. A total of 165 patients who were scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia were allocated into thr...
