Research advances in the effects of magnesium ion on the development of preterm infants / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Magnesium ion(Mg2+)plays an important role in maintaining the life and health of the body. In preterm infants,the protective effect of prenatal Mg2+ supplementation on the nervous system of preterm infants has been widely recognized. Researchers begin to pay attention to the effects of serum Mg2+ level on the development of nervous system and effects of prenatal exposure to Mg2+ on the non-nervous system in preterm infants. The effects of Mg2+ on the development of neural and non-neural system in preterm infants were summarized.
