Abstract: (4564 Views)
The results obtained in the present investigations point to a definite
correlation between the onset of myocardial injury, electrocardiographic
changes and biochemical changes. Changes in the electrocardiogram and
elevated serum levels were paralleled by an increased excretion of magnesium
in urine as early as one hour. Serum calcium and serum potassium levels
did not show any significant result, but in coming days these ions including
serum magnesium might help clinicians diagnose myocardial infarction. In
this study, increased urinary magnesium excretion was found to coincide
with elevated serum transaminases, and it is suggested that in addition to the
other establised diagnostic criteria, estimation of serum as well as urinary
magnesium may be used as an additional index of myocardial infarction.
