An account of the main causes of low blood magnesium and the predominant rôle of this ion in the organism is followed by the description of a case of encephalopathy due to magnesium deficiency in a chronic alcoholic with cirrhosis of the liver. This neuropsychological condition, together with its concomitant low blood calcium and potassium, rapidly regressed when magnesium sulphate was administered. Stress is laid on the desirability of giving attention to and preventing the onset of this electrolytic alteration in clinical practive.
在阐述低血镁的主要原因以及该离子在机体中的主要作用之后，描述了一例患有肝硬化的慢性酒精中毒患者因镁缺乏导致脑病的病例。这种神经心理状况，连同其伴随的低血钙和低钾，在给予硫酸镁后迅速好转。强调了在临床实践中关注并预防这种电解质改变发生的必要性。
