Magnesium levels in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease.
Serum magnesium was measured in 89 control subjects ages 19 to 86 years and in 64 patients (ages 35 to 82 years) who had suffered from acute myocardial infarction at least 6 months previously. No differences were found in the serum magnesium levels due to age or sex nor was there any statistical difference between the mean levels in the two groups. It is concluded that the level of serum magnesium is not associated with the presence or absence of clinically evident ischemic heart disease.
