evaluation of magnesium levels in serum and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with febrile convulsion (fc) hospitalized in bahrami hospital in tehran in 2010-2011. in the past, decreased levels of magnesium in serum and csf of patients with fc were reported. the purpose of this study was to identify the possible role of magnesium in febrile seizures in children. identifying this condition, we may...

migraine is one of the common varieties of headache. it involves 4 to 6 percent of men and 13 to 16 percent of women under 30 years in more than 80% of cases. some studies have shown that in 50% of patients serum magnesium level decreases during attacks of headache and using magnesium tablets and intravenous magnesium sulfate is more effective for treatment of migraine attack, than placebo. thi...

background: preeclampsia is a pregnancy multisystem disorder of unknown etiology. it is a significant cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. objectives: due to the significant role of magnesium in physiological regulation of blood pressure, this study was conducted to measure the level of magnesium in pre-eclampsia and control groups since the beginning of the pregnancy. materials...

magnesium (mg) deficiency has not usually been considered in clinical practice due to lack of relevant blood tests and because the symptoms are often vague and nonspecific. serum concentrations may not adequately reflect mg status. mg loading test (mlt) can provide infonnation on total body mg stores. we prospectively studied 21 critically ill patients (10 male, 11 female) admitted to the icu, ...

Background: The effects of magnesium physiology are contradictory to the neurotoxic effect of bilirubin, but the relationship between magnesium level and hyperbilirubinemia in neonates has not been well studied. In this study, we investigated the relationship between serum magnesium level and hyperbilirubinemia and hyperbilirubinemia complications at the Children’s Medical Center. Methods: In ...

backgroundmany studies reported that copper, zinc and magnesium play important roles in the pathogenesis and development of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. exchange transfusion and intensive phototherapy are known two modalities of therapy for severe neonatal hyper bilirubinemia, but the effect of them on those trace elements is unknown.materials and methodscopper, zinc and magnesium serum levels ...

background and objectives:    febrile convulsion is one of the most common types of seizure in childhood. its pathogenesis is unknown, so studying its cause is valuable. the purpose of this study was to determine the serum level of zinc and magnesium in children withfebrileconvulsion (f.c) (3 months to 6 years age). patients and methods: in this analytical case-control study, serum level of zin...

To establish the best measure for determining magnesium overload, we measured ionized and total magnesium in serum and mononuclear blood cells and total magnesium in erythrocytes in blood of 23 hemodialysis patients, known for their disturbed magnesium homeostasis. When comparing the mean magnesium values obtained in the patient population with those of a control population, all of these magnes...
