Venous insufficiency: Differences in the content of trace elements. A preliminary report

Abstract: Background. Venous insufficiency is still a serious clinical problem. The exact cause and molecular mechanisms of this disease are still unknown. In this study, we try to identify whether there is a difference in the level of trace elements between healthy and pathological veins. Our results show that insufficient veins have different levels of some trace elements: magnesium, calcium, manganese, and silicon compared to control samples. This study could lead to a better understanding of the molecular causes of … Show more

“…Ratcliffe et al stated that in Si-depleted rats, urinary phosphorus excretion was higher compared to Si-repleted animals [33]. Additionally, in one of the newest studies the differences in Mg-Si correlations between subjects with healthy veins and those with insufficient veins were reported [35].…”
