Effects of magnesium (Mg) supplementation on nine mild type 2 diabetic patients with stable glycemic control were investigated. Water from a salt lake with a high natural Mg content (7.1%) (MAG21) was used for supplementation after dilution with distilled water to 100mg/100mL; 300mL/day was given for 30 days. Fasting serum immunoreactive insulin level decreased significantly, as did HOMA squareR (both p < 0.05). There was also a marked decrease of the mean triglyceride level after supplementation. The patients with hypertension showed significant reduction of systolic (p < 0.01), diastolic (p = 0.0038), and mean (p < 0.01) blood pressure. The salt lake water supplement, MAG21, exerted clinical benefit as a Mg supplement in patients with mild type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a significant condition that profoundly impacts synovial joints, including cartilage and subchondral bone plate. Biomaterials that can impede OA progression are a promising alternative or supplement to anti-inflammatory and surgical interventions. Magnesium (Mg) alloys known for bone regeneration potential were assessed in the form of Mg microparticles regarding their impact on tissue regeneration and prevention of OA progression.

Magnesium (Mg), which is predominantly present in cells as a micronutrient, is involved in numerous vital physiological processes, such as DNA repair and energy metabolism. Mg deficiency has been reported to contribute toward the advent and progression of a variety of liver diseases; in particular, these two pathological entities may synergistically act. Given the significant impact and increasing burden of liver diseases on global healthcare resources and economic expenditure, it is tempting to manage Mg insufficiency as novel promising therapeutic strategies.

Background: Hypomagnesaemia is a common electrolyte disturbance that can lead to severe complications, including cardiac dysrhythmias and neuromuscular instability. Despite established guidelines by the York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, there is concern that these protocols are not consistently followed, potentially compromising patient outcomes. Objective: This audit aimed to evaluate the management of hypomagnesaemia at Scarborough General Hospital, focusing on adherence to trust guidelines and identifying areas for improvement in clinical practice.
