Aim. To assess the relationship of serum magnesium levels with the structural-functional heart parameters and the arrhythmic syndrome features in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia (UCTD) against the background of drug correction with magnesium.Material and methods. The study included 112 patients with Q-wave MI. Group I (n=22) consisted of patients with MI and UCTD, who, in addition to the standard basic therapy, from 1st day of IM took the magnesium drug. Group II (n=30) — patients with MI and UCTD who received only basic therapy. Group III (n=60) — patients with MI without UCTD who received standard basic therapy. The control group (n=32) — patients without cardiovascular pathology and without UCTD. For assessment we used clinical and phenotypic examinations, echocardiography and daily monitoring of the electrocardiogram, determination of serum magnesium level in the course of MI.Results. We observed a decrease in serum magnesium level in patients with MI in all study groups on the 1st day of MI. Moreover, this tendency persisted for 28 days in the II and III groups. In the first group of patients against the background of the medical correction, an increase in the magnesium level was observed by the 28th day of MI. MI patients with UCTD revealed a more pronounced increase of left ventricular cavity dimensions, a decrease in its pumping ability. We also noted a tendency to a less pronounced increase in the left ventricular mass index compared with the group of patients with MI without UCTD. In addition, the development of MI in patients with UCTD compared with patients without UCTD is characterized by a higher frequency of paroxysmal supraventricular rhythm disturbances and paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia. Magnesium addition to MI treatment in patients with UCTD reduces the frequency of supraventricular arrhythmias.Conclusion. In patients with MI, which occur on the background of UCTD, the initially existing hypomagnesaemia is associated with the development of a disadaptive version of the post-infarction cardiac remodeling. Magnesium use in patients with MI and UCTD helps to reduce the severity of hypomagnesaemia and the frequency of supraventricular cardiac rhythm disorders.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is characterized by glucose intolerance during pregnancy. GDM is associated with an increased incidence of congenital abnormalities usually aggravated by maternal magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is one of the essential trace elements for normal embryogenesis and foetal growth and its deficiency increases mortality and morbidity rate of mothers, embryos and neonates. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the association of serum magnesium with GDM in second and third trimester of pregnancy. This case-control study was conducted in Mymensingh Medical College Hospital during the period from July 2013 to June 2014 to evaluate the association of serum magnesium with GDM in Bangladeshi women. A total of 172 subjects were recruited in this study; among them eighty six women with GDM were selected as case (Group-I) and eighty six healthy pregnant women were taken as control (Group- II). The cases again were subdivided as Group Ia and Ib at second and third trimester respectively. Controls also were subdivided as Group IIa and IIb at second and third trimester respectively. Student's unpaired 't' test was used to compare the data between groups. For analytical purpose 95% confidence limit (p<0.05) was taken as level of significance. Serum magnesium level was significantly decreased in cases compared to that of controls. It was significantly lowered (p<0.001) in cases Gr-Ia (1.3884±0.255 mg/dl) than controls Gr-IIa (1.6651±0.304 mg/dl) at second trimester. The result was also significantly (p<0.001) lowered when compared between cases Gr-Ib (0.9349±0.145 mg/dl) and controls Gr-IIb (1.6674±0.308 mg/dl) at third trimester. The study shows that serum magnesium level is decreased in pregnancy with GDM. So estimation of serum magnesium level may be done in every GDM cases to reduce the incidence of magnesium related complications by timely intervention.Bangladesh J Med Biochem 2016; 9(2): 59-62

Background: Acute Myocardial Infarction is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Its prevalence among developing countries has increased significantly over the past two decades. Acute myocardial infarction is associated with electrolyte imbalance most commonly hypomagnesemia and hypokalaemia. Both are associated with ventricular arrhythmia which can lead to increase hospital mortality and morbidity. Objectives: To find out association of hypomagnesemia with ventricular arrhythmia in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Methods: Patients with acute myocardial infarction admitted in the department of Cardiology, DMCH, within the study period and who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were taken as study sample. Informed consent was taken from all patients and then the patients were evaluated by detailed history, clinical examination and relevant investigations. Serum magnesium level was measured after admission. The sample population was Grouped into Group A(Acute myocardial infarction with normal serum magnesium) and Group B(Acute myocardial infarction with hypomagnesemia). Patients were followed up regularly till discharge or death for evidence of ventricular arrhythmia. Then the obtained data was analysed with SPSS 22.0. Results: Among 110 patients of Acute MI, 44 patients were in Group A who had plasma magnesium level e”0.7 mmol/ l and 66 patients were in Group B who had plasma magnesium level <0.7 mmol/l. Incidence of hypoagnesemia was 60% and more common in male. Male vs female percentage of hypomagnesemia were 61% vs 39%. Mean age was 54.16±11.72 yrs vs 57.52±10.59 yrs in group A vs group B. On admission serum magnesium level was 0.9218 vs 0.523 mmol/L( group A vs group B). The study showed that group B patients were more haemodynamically unstable and mean SBP and DBP were found 89.39±19.93 and 60.67±11.56 mm-Hg respectively. Troponin I was markedly increased in group B than A (i.e 4.7±1.79 vs 14.6±4.3 vs ng/ml). Adverse cardiac events such as cardiogenic shock (group A vs group B = 11.36% vs 28.27%) and ventricular arrhythmias(group A vs group B = 34% vs 72.73%) were also higher in group B than group A. Mean hospital stay for group B patient was higher than group A(6.78±0.85 vs 5.31±0.35 days). The study result showed that ventricular arrhythmia is negatively correlated with serum magnesium and the correlation coefficient was - 0.541. It also showed that serum Magnesium is positively correlated with Potassium(r= 0.831, p<0.01) and Calcium(r= 0.902, p<0.001). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that hypomagnesemia is an independent risk factor for ventricular arrhythmia. Conclusions: This study showed that in patients with acute myocardial infarction, hypomagnesemia is common and it is significantly associated with ventricular arrhythmia. So the presence of hypomagnesemia should alert the physicians to adopt corrective measures as it increases both mortality and morbidity. Bangladesh Heart Journal 2020; 35(1) : 39-46

Background: Arrhythmias commonly occur early in acute myocardial infarction and remain a common cause of sudden death in AMI. Magnesium has been implicated in the pathogenesis of acute myocardial infarction and its complication like arrhythmia. Magnesium improves myocardial metabolism, inhibits calcium accumulation and myocardial cell death. It improves vascular tone, peripheral vascular resistance, after load and cardiac output and reduces cardiac arrhythmias. The objective of this study to investigate the serum magnesium level and QTc interval prolongation in AMI and its correlation with arrhythmias.Methods: In this study, 200 patients of AMI were enrolled. ECG and cardiac parameters were examined. Serum magnesium level is measured and the QTc interval was calculated.Results: MI was more prevalent in the male patients (63.3%) and age group of 41-50 years. Hypertension (35.7%), smoking (34.2%), and diabetes (23.1%) were the major risk factor for MI. Mean serum magnesium level was 1.64±0.37 among those having arrhythmia that is significantly low as compared to those having no arrhythmia among which mean serum magnesium level was 2.28±0.31 (p<0.001). Mean QTc was higher (546.88 ms vs. 404.33ms) in patients documented with arrhythmia compared with those who had no arrhythmia (p<0.001).Conclusions: In acute myocardial infarction, patients with low magnesium levels and prolonged QTc interval are more prone to get arrhythmias. So magnesium treatment can be considered in patients of acute myocardial infarction with low magnesium levels.

Background: Hypertension is a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular diseases with an ongoing global increase in incidence. Low Magnesium may play a critical role in cardiovascular physiology. Although many reports have mentioned the correlation between low serum magnesium levels and hypertension, the results were conflicting. Objective: To measure the levels of serum magnesium in hypertensive patients, and to evaluate the prevalence of hypomagnesemia among them. Patients and Methods: A case-control study from June 2019 to December 2019 was carried out in Rizgary Teaching Hospital and Nawroz Health Center involving 100 adult patients with essential hypertension (group I ) and 100 normotensive age and gender-matched controls ( group II). The serum magnesium level was measured in all participants. Results: Females constitute 64 % of both study groups. The means of the age of both study groups show no significant difference (p=0.82). Although the means of Mg level in hypertensive and control groups were within the normal range, it was significantly lower in hypertensive patients (p=0.004). Besides, 4 hypertensive patients (4%) had hypomagnesemia compared with zero in controls (p=0.043). Conclusion: There was a significantly lower mean magnesium level in hypertensives compared to controls. A relationship was assumed between serum magnesium level and hypertension. However; hypomagnesemia was not common in hypertensive patients.

The aim: To evaluate the peculiarity of clinical manifestations of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) in deeply premature infants from mothers with phenotypic markers of undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia (UCTD). Materials and methods: The study represent the results of a retrospective clinical and statistical analysis of 268 premature birth report card and newborn report sheet. .The main (1 group) included 50 pregnants with obvious phenotypic markers of UCTD, the comparison group (group 2) consisted of 50 pregnant women without phenotypic markers of UDCTD. Results: According to the study, in 12 (24%) pregnant women of the main group at the time of admission to the clinic had contractions,which required specific therapy. Cervical cerclage was performed in 38 (76%) patients of the main group due to the presence of cervical insufficiency (CI). In these cases, the severity of the CI on the Steinber scale was 7.2 &#177; 0.4 points in the main group against 4.4 &#177; 0.2 points in the comparison group (p &#60;0.05). Group I patients were more likely to have complications of labor such as:premature rupture of membranes, uterine contraction abnormalities and fetal distress, which required in most cases cesarean delivery (7% and 2%), respectively (p &#60;0.05). The incidence of neonatal complications requiring respiratory support was 67% in group I and 48% in group II. According to our observations, the clinical manifestations of bronchopulmonary dysplasia were twice as high in infants of the main group (66%) against (44%) of the comparison group (p &#60;0.05). Conclusions:1.Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome in premature infants is more often associated from mothers with UDCTD. 2. The high importance of steroid prophylaxis of NRDS and antioxidant therapy in reducing the frequency of mechanical ventilation and the development of bronchopulmonary pathology, especially in infants from mothers with UDCTD syndrome, has been proven. 3. The possibility of diagnosing disorders of functional maturation of the lungs in the fetal period using a non-invasive method of ultrasonography has been confirmed.
