MAGT1 Deficiency Dysregulates Platelet Cation Homeostasis and Accelerates Arterial Thrombosis and Ischemic Stroke in Mice
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that MAGT1 and TRPC6 are functionally linked. Therefore, deficiency or impaired functionality of MAGT1 could be a potential risk factor for arterial thrombosis and stroke.PMID:37381987 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.122.318115

Effects of Combined Sertraline and Magnesium in Rat Atrium
The objective of this study is to determine the synergistic effects of an antioxidant ion Mg+2, combined with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor sertraline, in treatment or prevention of major depression and regulation of inotropic effect in the early postoperative period. Adult male 40 Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into 6 groups. Three to 4-mm long atrium strips were placed in organ bath, tension was adjusted to 2 g. Isometric contractions were induced with 10-3 M adrenaline. Group 1 was the control group, cumulative sertraline was given to group 2, cumulative MgSO4 to group 3, combined cumulative sertralin...

Low Serum Calcium and Magnesium Levels and Rupture of Intracranial Aneurysms Brief Report
Conclusions—In this large case–control study, hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia at diagnosis were significantly associated with ruptured aneurysms. Impaired hemostasis caused by hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia may explain this association.

Quick magnesium treatment fails to improve stroke outcomes, but study has silver lining
In the first study of its kind, a consortium led by UCLA physicians found that giving stroke patients intravenous magnesium within an hour of the onset of symptoms does not improve stroke outcomes.   However, the 8-year trial did find that with the help of paramedics in the field, intravenous medications can frequently be administered to stroke victims within that so-called "golden hour," during which they have the best chance to survive and avoid debilitating, long-term neurological damage.   The latter finding is a "game-changer," said Dr. Jeffrey Saver, director of the UCLA Stroke Center and a professor of ...
