ABSTRACT
Objective: The objective of this study
was to assess serum and urinary
magnesium levels in children who
have chronic kidney disease stages
1-3.
Methods: Eighty-seven patients
who were followed at pediatric
nephrology department for chronic
kidney disease were included in the
study. Age, gender, magnesium,
dietary magnesium, and creatinine
levels, and fractionated magnesium
excretion for all cases were recorded.
Patients with chronic kidney disease
and control groups were compared in
terms of these data.
Results: Thirtynine
cases with chronic kidney disease
were stage 1, 26 were stage 2, and 22
were stage 3. Average age was 9.9 ± 2.8
years in the control group and 10.2 ±
2.6 years in the chronic kidney disease
group. The serum magnesium levels
were significantly higher in the stage
3 group than in the control group
(P‹0.001). Also, in stage 3, fractionated
magnesium excretion levels were
higher compared to the control group
(P‹0.001).
Conclusion: In chronic
kidney disease with advancing renal
failure, hypermagnesemia is frequently
seen. Serum magnesium levels should
be measured periodically in all the
children with chronic kidney disease
stage 3 to investigate magnesium
abnormalities and assess clinical results.
