Abstract:
Background And Aim
Previous studies were carried out on blood subjects with migraine. Blood calcium and magnesium don’t reflect the body content of it. This research was designed to measure intra cellular magnesium and calcium concentration. The aim of this study was to measure red blood cell magnesium and calcium in patients with migraine.Materials And Methods
In this research Red blood cell magnesium and calcium concentration were measured in 21 patients with migraine and 24 normal subjects without migraine. Magnesium and calcium levels were determined by atomic absorption.Results
In this study differences between the magnesium and calcium levels in the two study groups were found. In comparison with normal subjects, migraine patients had higher red blood cell magnesium levels (8.409 ± 0.516, 7.866 ±0.687 mg/ml, p>0.05). Also, In comparison with normal subjects, migraine patients had higher red blood cell calcium levels (14.255 ±0.453, 3.799 ±0.176 mg/ml, p<0.05). The data were expressed as the mean ± the standard deviation, and they were statistically analyzed with Student t-test. Conclusion
Change calcium, magnesium level in migraine agreement with previous studies of a possible role for magnesium and calcium in migraine patients. Therefore, according to our data changing magnesium and calcium levels is related to migraine pathophysiology. In future with control calcium and magnesium level in migraine patients, we can use for improving the status.Language:
