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 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...

background: we intended to investigate the serum magnesium impact upon the disability after ischemic stroke. methods: a total of 67 ischemic stroke patients who less than 6 hours had passed from their attacks participated in this cross sectional study. we have measured their serum magnesium level and determined its correlation with their rankin disability score (rds) in the first 72 hours (rds0...

background: non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) was one of prevalent problems in general population. it was the most common cause of abnormal liver function tests and may lead to steatohepatitis and cirrhosis. the role of many factors has been known in nafld. in this study, we investigated the correlation of serum magnesium level and nafld after minimizing the role of major confounding fa...

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 ...

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 le...

Background: Febrile convulsion is one of the most common types of seizure in childhood (9 month to 5 years of age). Its pathogenesis is unknown, so studying its causes is valuable. The purpose of this study was to determine the serum level of magnesium in children with FC (9 months to 5 years of age). Materials and Methods: In this analytical study, serum level of magnesium in 102 children wi...

BACKGROUND Patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) have increased risk of low-turnover bone disease and relative hypoparathyroidism. Recently, it has been believed that magnesium plays an important role in regulating secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH). The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between serum PTH and serum magnesium as a factor increasing the...
