A Pilot study on correlation between Zinc and Magnesium serum concentrations and coronary slow flow phenomenon.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe pathophysiology of slow flow includes microvascular disorders, endothelial dysfunction, subclinical atherosclerosis, inflammation and anatomical factors. The role of magnesium and zinc in the development of microvascular and endothelial dysfunctions as well as atherosclerosis has been proven in previous studies, and the mechanism of the development has been studied. The aim of current study was to evaluate the serum concentration of zinc and magnesium in patients with epicardial coronary artery slow flow.
design125 patients who referred to Ghaem Hospital in Mashhad were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Magnesium and Zinc levels were evaluated in patients. The plasma levels of studied elements were compared among the different groups and the rate of coronary artery slow flow was evaluated based on the TIMI score.
resultsThe results of present study indicated that the serum level of Magnesium in the studied groups did not show a significant correlation with rate of coronary artery slow flow (P> 0.05). Serum Zinc concentration was significantly different in the studied groups, which means serum Zinc level in patients without coronary artery occlusion and without epicardial slow flow were significantly higher than other groups (P> 0.01).
conclusionIn the present study, no significant relationship was found between the serum level of zinc and magnesium with the intensity of coronary artery slow flow based on TIMI, and further studies seem to be needed to investigate this relationship.
