Article Abstract

Aim: We aimed to assess whether the efficacy of pre-hydration with 15 mEq magnesium prevents cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in cisplatin regimens (dosage: 50 mg/m(2)or more) for gynecological cancer.

Patients And Methods: This historical, prospective cohort study compared nephrotoxicity in patients who received pre-hydration with or without magnesium sulfate (Mg-hydration group, n=37; non-Mg-hydration group, n=37). We used serum creatinine (Scr), creatinine clearance (Ccr) and Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss of kidney function and End-stage kidney disease (RIFLE) criteria.

Results: A change of Scr and Ccr in the Mg-hydration group was higher than in the non-Mg-hydration group. Based on the RIFLE criteria, the number of moderate renal dysfunction patients classified as "Risk" in the Mg-hydration group was significantly lower than in the non-Mg-hydration group (Mg-hydration group=21.6%; non-Mg-hydration group=51.4%; p<0.01). Serum magnesium levels in the Mg-hydration group significantly declined during chemotherapy (p<0.01).

Conclusion: We found that a 15 mEq magnesium as pre-hydration provided nephroprotective effects in patients receiving this cisplatin regimen. Future research should involve finding appropriate magnesium doses.

Aqueous-phase processing of methylglyoxal (MG) has been suggested to play a key role in the formation of secondary organic aerosols and catalyze particle growth in the atmosphere. However, the details of these processes remain speculative owing to the lack of a complete description of the physicochemical behavior of MG on atmospheric aerosols. Here, the solvation and hydrolysis of MG at the air/liquid water interface is studied via classical and first-principles molecular dynamics simulations combined with free-energy methods.

Aim: The present study aimed to assess the efficacy of 15 mEq magnesium supplied as part of a prehydration regimen in preventing cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in patients undergoing therapy with cisplatin-alone (40 mg/m(2)/week) for cervical cancer.

Patients And Methods: We studied 28 patients with cervical cancer. This prospective cohort study compared nephrotoxicity in patients who received hydration with and without magnesium sulfate (Mg-hydration group, n=14; non-Mg-hydration group, n=14).
