Clinical trials using Mg supplements as therapy against CaOx stones have shown mixed results. We tested the effect of Mg administration in healthy subjects under conditions of controlled urine pH (UpH) on urinary Ca excretion rate (UCaV) and CaOx saturation. This is a 4-phase, double blind, placebo-controlled, metabolic crossover study performed in healthy volunteers. Mg lactate (MgLact₂) was used as Mg supplement. High UpH and low UpH were achieved by administration of potassium citrate (K₃Citrate) and ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl), respectively, with potassium balance maintained by KCl. Eight participants completed 4 phases of study. The interventions successfully modulated 24-h UpH (7.0 ± 0.4 vs. 5.7 ± 0.6 in high vs low pH phases; P<0.001). Administration of MgLact₂ increased UMgV [175.8 ± 40.2 vs 93.4 ± 39.7 mg/day (7.2 ± 1.7 vs 3.8 ± 1.6 mmol/day), high vs low Mg phase; P<0.001], and increased pH both at low (5.6 ± 0.5 to 5.8 ± 0.7; P = 0.02) and high UpH (6.9 ± 0.4 to 7.0 ± 0.3; P = 0.01). At a given urine pH, Mg supplementation marginally increased UCaV, but did not alter UOxV or CaOx saturation. Provision of an alkali load significantly lowered UCaV and saturation of CaOx at any level of UMgV. Compared to changes in UMgV, changes in UpH play a more significant role in determining urine CaOx saturation in healthy subjects. Mg supplements are likely to reduce CaOx saturation if they also raise urine pH.</p>","PeriodicalId":18159,"journal":{"name":"Magnesium research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1684/mrh.2018.0429","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35998395","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Medline database and other sources were searched for randomized clinical trials through July 2017. Studies that reported results regarding at least one of the following outcomes: leg strength, knee extension strength, peak torque, muscle power, muscle work, jump, handgrip, bench press weights, resistant exercise, lean mass, muscle mass, muscle strength, walking speed, Repeated Chair Stands, and TGUG were included. Measurements of the association were pooled using a fixed-effects model and expressed as weighted mean differences (WMDs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). Fourteen randomized clinical trials targeting 3 different populations were identified: athletes or physically active individuals (215 participants; mean age: 24.9 years), untrained healthy individuals (95 participants; mean age: 40.2 years), and elderly or alcoholics (232 participants; mean age: 62.7 years). The beneficial effects of Mg supplementation appeared to be more pronounced in the elderly and alcoholics, but were not apparent in athletes and physically active individuals. The results of the meta-analysis suggested that no significant improvements in the supplementation group were observed regarding isokinetic peak torque extension [WMD = 0.87; 95% CI = (-1.43, 3.18)], muscle strength [WMD = 0.87; 95% CI = (-0.12, 1.86)] or muscle power [WMD = 3.28; 95% CI = (-14.94, 21.50)].
