Active physical exercises are associated with high body mineral demand that can cause mineral disbalances with diverse negative health outcomes. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of sport-related factors on mineral composition in young athletes. Saliva and hair samples were chosen for the analysis as reflecting immediate and more permanent mineral status, respectively.The samples were analysed by spectral methods with inductively coupled plasma for eight essential minerals: calcium (Ca), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), selenium (Se), and zinc (Zn). The results from athletes were compared to ones from the control group of adolescent non-athletes. Different minerals demonstrated sampling specific distribution. Sport type specificity of mineral content was found. These findings can help in the process of mineral status data standardization and in training process to correct the sport-associated mineral disbalances.

“…In addition, another study revealed that magnesium supplementation can considerably improve performance of stroke patients [19] and facilitate their recovery [20]. Researchers also reported that high magnesium hair accumulation is not associated with risk of ischemic stroke [15]. A strong association has been shown between magnesium intake and reduced risk of stroke [4].…”

Introduction: Many studies have shown a relationship between serum level of trace elements and risk of stroke, but the exact mechanism of this relationship is not clear. The purpose of this study was to measure changes of serum magnesium, iron, copper, and zinc levels in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke patients to evaluate their potential diagnostic utility.Materials and methods: Overall, 53 healthy individuals (30 men, 32 women) and 53 ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke patients (30 men, 23 women) who were admitted to the Rouhani Hospital in Babol (Iran) were enrolled in the study within 24 hours after stroke onset. Diagnosis was made based on medical history and physical examination by a neurologist. After blood sampling, serum copper was assessed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, and zinc, magnesium and iron levels were assessed by spectrophotometry. Data analysis was performed in SPSS (version 21) using independent sample t-test and chi-square test. Results: Serum concentrations of copper was significantly higher in the patients (58.8 ±14.7 mg/dL) compared with the controls (45.7 ±10.0 mg/dL). Serum concentrations of zinc was significantly higher in the patients (113.2 ±17.3 mg/dL) compared with the controls (95.60 ±12.80 mg/dl). Moreover, serum concentrations of iron was significantly higher in the patients (148.5 ±30.4 mg/dL) compared with the controls (74.22 ±33.3 mg/dL). However, the patients (1.4 ±0.8 mEq/L) had significantly lower level of magnesium level compared to the controls (2.1 ±0.3 mEq/L). Conclusions: Our results suggest that evaluation of serum magnesium, iron, copper and zinc levels in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke patients may be useful for the prediction and diagnosis of stroke status.

Nadciśnienie tętnicze jest jedną z najczęściej występujących chorób układu krążenia. Jednym z głównych elementów niefarmakologicznej prewencji i leczenia wysokiego ciśnienia tętniczego jest właściwy sposób żywienia. Ważną rolę w prewencji i leczeniu nadciśnienia tętniczego pełni optymalne spożycie wapnia i magnezu. Celem badań była ocena: spożycia wapnia i magnezu oraz ich zawartości we włosach pacjentów z pierwotnym nadciśnieniem tętniczym.W badaniu uczestniczyło 30 pacjentów z pierwotnym nadciśnieniem tętniczym oraz 29 zdrowych osób. Zawartość Ca i Mg we włosach oznaczono metodą spektrofotometrii atomowo-absorpcyjnej (ASA), przy użyciu aparatu Zeiss AAS-3. Ocenę spożycia analizowanych składników mineralnych przeprowadzono za pomocą wykonanego trzykrotnie 24-godzinnego wywiadu żywieniowego. Zawartość wapnia i magnezu, występujących w całodziennych racjach pokarmowych, określono na podstawie komputerowych baz danych przygotowanych w programie Dietetyk. Stwierdzono większą zawartość Ca we włosach pacjentów z nadciśnieniem tętniczym niż osób zdrowych. Ponadto we włosach kobiet w grupie badanej oznaczono również większą koncentrację Mg aniżeli u kobiet z prawidłowym ciśnieniem tętniczym. Ocena spożycia Ca i Mg wykazała ich niedostateczną podaż w diecie. U kobiet i mężczyzn z nadciśnieniem tętniczym zaobserwowano mniejsze ich spożycie aniżeli u osób zdrowych. Nie stwierdzono natomiast istotnych zależności między podażą analizowanych składników mineralnych a ich zawartością we włosach badanych osób.
