Blood Magnesium, and the Interaction with Calcium, on the Risk of High-Grade Prostate Cancer

BACKGROUND: Ionized calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) compete as essential messengers to regulate cell proliferation and inflammation. We hypothesized that inadequate Mg levels, perhaps relative to Ca levels (e.g. a high Ca/Mg ratio) are associated with greater prostate cancer risk. STUDY DESIGN: In t...
