Abstract
There is a conflict of evidence concerning the alterations of nondiffusible plasma magnesium in disorders of the thyroid gland. In this investigation it was found in 12 normal individuals, 9 patients with hyperthyroidism, 10 with myxedema, 6 with nontoxic goiter, and 14 patients with miscellaneous diseases, that the nondiffusible plasma magnesium was relatively constant in a wide range of conditions and was not altered even in patients with marked thyroid dysfunction.Keywords
