Relationship Between Magnesium Concentration in Blood and Kognitive Functions After Stroke
Cognitive impairments such as memory impairments, word-finding difficulties, compromised orientation and perception are often observed in stroke patients.
Low serum-mg-concentrations are associated with cognitive impairments in ischemic stroke patients one month after stroke onset. It is not clear, if cognitive impairments after stroke is caused by the mg-deficiency or by the stroke itself. Until now, no studies investigating the relationship between mg-concentration, stroke severity and cognition during treatment course are available. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between mg-concentration and cognition of stroke patients.
Inclusion: ischemic/hemmorhagic stroke; written consent form.
Exclusion: pre-existing mental disorder (depression) or present/prior long-term treatment (> 6 months) with psychotropic drugs; pre-existing dementia or cognitive impairment before stroke onset; pre-existing malign tumor disease; participation in another clinical trial within the past 30 days; pregnancy or breastfeeding.
