Magnesium administration after experimental traumatic brain injury improves decision-making skills
2018, Brain Research BulletinCitation Excerpt :Discrimination tasks are easily translatable to humans, more so than the common battery of behavioral assays in rodent TBI studies. In fact, discrimination tasks are already used to assess for cognitive deficits in humans (Barbre and Hoane, 2006; Skinner, 1963; Vink et al., 2003). Tests similar to the dig task, but used in humans, are the card arranging reward responsively objective test (CARROT) and the Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART) which help to assess deficits (Skinner, 1963; Vink et al., 2003).
Acute Effects of a Single-Dose Nutritional Product on Stress Response and Task Completion in Horses
2017, Journal of Equine Veterinary ScienceCitation Excerpt :The product under investigation for the present study was comprised of magnesium and thiamine in a guar gum base. Magnesium is a physiological N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist [8], and has been shown to reduce anxiety [9-11], as well as to adapt the brain to stress without reducing learning capacity [12] . Similarly, supplemental thiamin (vitamin B1) is as effective as exercise in reducing biomarkers of anxiety in rats [13] and, when combined with magnesium and zinc, reduces clinical signs of postpartum depression in mice [14].
Magnesium, zinc and copper estimation in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
2017, Egyptian Journal of Medical Human GeneticsCitation Excerpt :Other common symptoms of magnesium lack include becoming easily irritated, nervousness, fatigue and mood swings [10]. Given the nature of these symptoms and the significant amount of overlap that they share with ADHD, this has led many experts involved in the treatment and care of ADHD to hypothesize that children who suffer from the condition also have magnesium deficiency as well [11]. Moreover, magnesium helps in generating ATP and energy [11], disposing brain ammonia, which is related to inattention [12] and converting essential fatty acids into DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), which is related to proper function and structure of brain cells [12].
