TLDR
Early administration of magnesium in high-risk patients with STEMI has no effect on 30-day mortality, and in current coronary care practice there is no indication for the routine administration of intravenous magnesium in patients withSTEMI.

Magnesium in Man: Implications for Health and Disease

TL;DR: An extensive and comprehensive overview of Mg(2+) research over the last few decades is provided, focusing on the regulation of M g(2+) homeostasis in the intestine, kidney, and bone and disturbances which may result in hypomagnesemia.

A multiple testing procedure for clinical trials.

TL;DR: The overall size of the procedure is shown to be controlled with virtually the same accuracy as the single sample chi-square test based on N(m1 + m2) observations and the power is found to bevirtually the same.

Indications for fibrinolytic therapy in suspected acute myocardial infarction : collaborative overview of early mortality and major morbidity results from all randomised trials of more than 1000 patients

Johan Herlitz

TL;DR: It is shown that fibrinolytic therapy can reduce mortality in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and the indications for, and contraindications to, this therapy.

Discrete sequential boundaries for clinical trials

K. K. Gordon Lan, +1 more

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a more flexible method to construct discrete sequential boundaries based on the choice of a function, a*(t), which characterizes the rate at which the error level ac is spent.

TIMI risk score for ST-elevation myocardial infarction: A convenient, bedside, clinical score for risk assessment at presentation: An intravenous nPA for treatment of infarcting myocardium early II trial substudy.

TL;DR: The TIMI risk score for STEMI captures the majority of prognostic information offered by a full logistic regression model but is more readily used at the bedside, likely to be clinically useful in the triage and management of fibrinolytic-eligible patients with STEMI.
