Myocyte calcification in acute MI (4096 words) |
 | In view of the deleterious effects of calcium on myocyte energy metabolism (13,14), we have postulated that the increase in myocardial calcium is a critical determinant of the deleterious effect of magnesium-deficient diets (15-17). |
 | AMI was defined as acute myocyte necrosis evidenced by loss of cross striations and nuclei, with or without the presence of contraction bands, and with or without an inflammatory reaction. |
 | That is, necrotic cardiac myocytes may become calcified, especially in patients who have a high serum calcium level or who are in uremia.(21,22). |
