		<description><![CDATA[Evidence for Disturbed Regulation of Calciotropic Hormone Metabolism in Gitelman Syndrome
Little attention has been paid to interactions between circulating levels of calcium, PTH, and 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25(OH)2 D] and bone mineral density in primary renal magnesium deficiency. Plasma and urinary electrolytes, and circulating levels of calciotropic hormones were studied in 13 untreated patients with primary renal [...]]]></description>

Phosphorus is the second most abundant element of the human body. About 80% is in bones. The RDA is 700 mg/day, and the regular diet contains 1026 mg in women and 1455 in men. Phosphorus is present as phosphate in biologic systems. It is the concentration of elemental (or inorganic) [...]]]></description>

As a child in the 1920’s, Zinc (Zn) oxide was our antibiotic ointment for all sorts of skin conditions. As a pediatrician in the 1950’s, it was still the treatment of choice for infected diaper rashes.

(Perhaps one reason is that it is easily mistaken for potassium deficit, a condition with which it is often associated.) Magnesium deficit also occurs in less acutely ill individuals, such as those experiencing withdrawal from alcohol and those [...]]]></description>
