Full textAbstract
The objective of the studies was evaluation of the level of magnesium in children hospitalized for severe respiratory infections (mainly pneumonia and bronchitis). The criterion for the evaluation of the magnesium level in the serum of the children hospitalized for severe respiratory infections were the following parameters: general condition of the child at the time of admittance, feeding pattern and psychosomatic development in the children with respiratory infection. The level of magnesium in the serum of the children admitted with median general condition was higher than that of the children admitted with poor general condition. The level of magnesium in the serum of breastfed children and those with correct psychosomatic development was higher than the level of magnesium in children fed artificially and representing backward psychosomatic development.
