These findings were robust in sensitivity analyses .
Conclusions This meta- analysis suggests that Mg supplementation significantly reduces serum CRP level .
Introduction The aim of the study was to undertake a systematic review and meta- analysis of prospect i ve studies to determine the effect of magnesium ( Mg ) supplementation on  C-reactive protein ( CRP ) .
Dietary magnesium intake and risk of incident hypertension among middle-aged and older US women in a 10-year follow-up study.
To assess the hypothesis that magnesium intake is beneficial in the primary prevention of hypertension , 28,349 female United States health professionals aged > or = 45 years participating in the Women 's Health Study ( WHS ) , who initially reported normal blood pressure ( systolic blood pressure < 140 mm Hg , diastolic blood pressure < 90 mm Hg , no history of hypertension or antihypertensive medications ) , were prospect ively studied . A semi-quantitative food frequency question naire was used to estimate magnesium intake . During a median follow-up of 9.8 years , 8,544 women developed incident hypertension .  After adjustment for age and r and omized treatment , magnesium intake was inversely associated with the risk for developing hypertension ; women in the highest quintile ( median 434 mg/day ) had a decreased risk for hypertension ( relative risk 0.87 , 95 % confidence interval [ CI ] 0.81 to 0.93 , p for trend < 0.0001 ) compared with those in the lowest quintile ( median 256 mg/day ) . This inverse association was attenuated but remained significant after further adjustment for known risk factors . In the fully adjusted model , the relative risks were 1.00 ( 95 % CI 0.95 to 1.10 ) , 1.02 ( 95 % CI 0.95 to 1.10 ) , 0.96 ( 95 % CI 0.89 to 1.03 ) , and 0.93 ( 95 % CI 0.86 to 1.02 ) ( p for trend = 0.03 ) . Similar associations were observed for women who never smoked and reported no history of high cholesterol or diabetes at baseline . In conclusion , the results suggest that higher intake of dietary magnesium may have a modest effect on the development of hypertension in women
These findings were robust in sensitivity analyses .
