The objective of our study is to quantitatively examine the available evidence regarding the efficacy and side effects of magnesium sulfate for acute tocolysis (from randomized trials) compared with placebo and beta-agonist agents. Randomized trials comparing magnesium sulfate with placebo or beta-agonists for tocolysis were identified with a MEDLINE-based search and was supplemented by a searc...

Objective: Magnesium sulfate has been shown to provide analgesia when administered into the knee joints. The aim of this study was to evaluate the histopathological effects of intraarticular administration of magnesium sulfate in the rat knee joint. Design: A total of 50 rats were given 0.25ml of magnesium sulfate (10%) by injection into the right knee joint and 0.25ml of 0.9% saline solution b...

Magnesium sulfate has been used in preeclampsia patients in order to prevent seizure. It is also used for the treatment of arrhythmia and asthma and as an anesthetic adjunct in patients undergoing surgery for pheochromocytoma. However, its potentiating effects on perioperative analgesia and muscle relaxation have drawn attention recently. These characteristics of magnesium (anesthetic- and anal...

Background: Germinal matrix hemorrhage and intraventricular hemorrhage (GMH-IVH) are among the causes of morbidity and mortality in very low birth weight (VLBW) neonates. The aim of this study was to determine the postnatal prophylactic effect of magnesium sulfate on GMH-IVH.Methods: In this double-blind clinical trial, 140 VLBW newborns were selected. The babies with birth weight ≤ 1500 ...

OBJECTIVE Magnesium historically has been used for treatment and/or prevention of eclampsia or preterm labor. More recently, antepartum magnesium sulfate has been suggested for prevention of cerebral palsy in preterm infants. Although adverse effects and toxicity of magnesium in pregnant women are well known, the fetal-neonatal effects of magnesium are less clear. The objective of this study wa...

alkali and alkaline earth metals hydrogen sulfate catalyzed the one-pot three component condensation reactions of aldehydes, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and urea or thiourea under solvent-free conditions leading to 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1h)-ones in high yields at 80 °c. our results showed that biginelli reaction not only is ph dependent, but the cation of catalyst plays an important role.

The effect of the parenteral administration of magnesium sulfate on the renal hemodynamics of normal dogs (1) and normal children (2) has been previously reported. However, no data are available concerning the effects of magnesium sulfate on the excretion of other electrolytes, nor have studies on the renal clearance of magnesium been reported. It is the purpose of this report to present such d...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Magnesium sulfate has been shown to benefit asthmatic children and adults with poor responses to initial beta-agonist therapy and systemic corticoids in the emergency department. The aim of this study was to realize a no systematic review about the treatment of the acute asthma with intravenous and nebulized magnesium sulfate in the emergence. CONTENTS The first inve...

BACKGROUND Propofol is the most widely used drug in the induction of general anesthesia, however its disadvantages of injection pain has always been a problem for clinical anesthetists. Many strategies have been proposed and magnesium sulfate is one of them. This is the first meta-analysis studies evaluating effects of magnesium sulfate pretreatment for preventing propofol-induced injection pai...

OBJECTIVE Magnesium sulfate is proposed to have neuroprotective effects in the offspring. We examined the effects of maternal magnesium sulfate administration on maternal and fetal inflammatory responses in a rat model of maternal infection. STUDY DESIGN Pregnant rats were injected with saline, Gram-negative bacterial endotoxin lipopolysaccharide or lipopolysaccharide with magnesium sulfate (...
