The Study of Calcium, Phosphonium, Magnesium, and Ferrum Concentration in Serum of Patients With Primary Trigeminal Neuralgia.

Objective: To measure the concentration of 4 essential elements (Ca, P, Mg, Fe) in serum of patients with primary trigeminal neuralgia. And evaluate the role of the 4 elements in serum on the pathogenesis of trigeminal neuralgia (TN), and the relevance of etiology. Methods: From June 2013 to June 2014, a number of 80 patients with primary trigeminal neuralgia were collected. We present a retrospective review of the concentration of 4 essential elements with those of control group of 80 patients without TN. The concentrations of 4 elements were measured with Olympus AU 400 automatic biochemistry analyzer. Results: In primary TN patients, the concentration of Ca, P, Mg in serum is lower than the control group obviously (P
